Embodiment 1 and comparative example 1~3

[0096] Follow the steps (1) to (3) below to make figure 1The single 3-shaped (ie LR6) alkaline dry cell shown.

[0097] (1) Production of positive electrode

[0098] Electrolytic manganese dioxide powder (manganese dioxide purity: 93%, average particle diameter D50: 40 μm, BET specific surface area: 26 m 2 / g), graphite powder (average particle diameter D50: 10 μm) as a conductive agent, and polytetrafluoroethylene as a resin binder were mixed.

[0099] An electrolytic solution is added to the mixture, and the mixture is sufficiently mixed to obtain a positive electrode mixture. The amounts of the resin binder and the electrolytic solution were 0.2 parts by mass and 2 parts by mass, respectively, based on 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the electrolytic manganese dioxide and the conductive agent. Alkaline aqueous solutions containing potassium hydroxide and zinc oxide at a concentration of 35% by mass and a concentration of 2% by mass were used for the electrolytic...

Embodiment 2~3

[0119] In (1) of Example 1, the mixing ratio of the electrolytic manganese dioxide and the conductive agent was adjusted for each pellet so that the ratio of the mass of the conductive agent to the total mass of the manganese dioxide and the conductive agent was as shown in Table 1. value. In addition, the height of the pellets was changed to 10.9 mm by adjusting the size of the mold. Except for these, positive electrode pellets were produced and evaluated in the same manner as in Example 1.

[0120] In (3) of Example 1, four positive electrode pellets were vertically inserted into the battery case 1 . At this time, in Example 2, such as image 3 As shown, each pellet is inserted so that the same pellet 12b is used as pellets of the first and fourth stages from the positive terminal side of the battery case 1, and two pellets with a low ratio of the conductive agent are used. 12a is located between these pellets (2nd stage and 3rd stage pellets). In Example 3, the pellets ...

Embodiment 4~8

[0127] The thickness of the main body of the battery case was changed as shown in Table 2. Except for this, an alkaline dry battery was produced in the same manner as in Example 1, and evaluations (a) and (c) were performed.

[0128] The results are shown in Table 2. Examples 4-8 are A4-A8. Table 2 also shows the results of A1 and B2 together.

[0129] [Table 2]

[0130]

[0131] As shown in Table 2, even if the thickness of the main body is as thin as 0.15 mm or less, by adjusting the ratio (or resistance) of the conductive agent between the central pellet and the end pellets, A1, A4 to A8 are compared with B2. The swelling of the main body part is less than that. From the viewpoint of obtaining a higher swelling suppressing effect, the thickness of the main body portion is preferably 0.08 mm or more.

Abstract

This alkaline battery is provided with: a cylindrical battery case; a positive electrode which is filled in the battery case and which comprises a stack of 'n' pieces of hollow cylindrical pellets; anegative electrode disposed in the hollow part of the pellets; a separator disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode; and an alkaline electrolytic solution. The body of the battery case has a thickness of at most 0.15 mm. The positive electrode comprises manganese dioxide and a conductive agent, and 'n' is an integer of 3 or greater. At least one pellet positioned in the center of the stack in the height direction thereof has a first electrical resistance that is higher than a second electrical resistance of at least one pellet positioned at an end in the height direction of the stack.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to an improvement of a positive electrode in an alkaline dry battery provided with a battery case having a small thickness of the main body. Background technique [0002] Alkaline dry batteries are widely used because they have a large capacity and can take out a large current. The positive electrode of the alkaline dry battery contains pellets containing manganese dioxide powder as a positive electrode active material and graphite powder as a conductive agent. In the alkaline dry battery, the positive electrode as a whole expands due to the expansion of manganese dioxide during discharge. [0003] From the viewpoint of increasing the capacity of alkaline dry batteries, it is considered advantageous to increase the amount of manganese dioxide in the positive electrode or to make the battery case (particularly the main body) that does not contribute to the capacity thin. However, in these cases, the influence of swelling...
