2. Description of the Related Art Conventional paste type negative electrodes for Ni-Cd batteries use cadmium as the main active material, nickel powder as a conductive material to enhance electric conductivity, and synthetic resin monofilament to increase the strength of the electrode plate. Further, a solution of polyvinyl alcohol was further added as a binder, and the mixture was kneaded until a predetermined viscosity was reached to form a paste-like mixture. The paste-like mixture shown in FIG. A perforated steel plate provided with holes 2 was applied to a nickel-plated core material 3, dried and then pressed to a certain thickness to give an unformed plate. Further, this unformed plate is electrolyzed (formed) in, for example, an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide.
After that, each step of washing with water, drying and press cutting was performed to obtain a negative electrode plate 4 as shown in FIG. In FIG. 4, a is a current collector and b is a paste coating part.

The dropping phenomenon of the active material also occurs at the boundary portion between the non-opening portion 2 and the opening portion 1, and the dropping material from this portion mainly causes an internal short circuit in the battery. Voltage failure or deterioration of life characteristics.
