加させ,界面からの電解液の流出を防止している。Conventional technology In general, in order to improve leakage resistance in alkaline batteries, an insulating gasket made of polyethylene, polypropylene, or nylon synthetic resin is interposed between the date-sealing positive electrode case and the sealing plate, and the periphery of the positive electrode case is tightened. This increases the tension between the sealing plate, insulating gasket, and positive electrode case to prevent electrolyte from flowing out from the interface.

れているが必ずしも十分な効果は得られていない。However, in batteries that use an alkaline electrolyte such as potassium hydroxide, leakage is likely to occur due to the creep phenomenon in which the electrolyte creeps up the surface of the negative electrode current collector. Therefore,
With conventional insulating gaskets, the compressive stress is not sufficient to prevent the creep phenomenon, and the compressive stress decreases due to water absorption, so leakage resistance is not sufficient. Therefore, methods have been taken to examine the fit between the sealing plate, gasket, and positive electrode case, and to interpose a liquid sealant between the gasket and the sealing plate, and between the gasket and the positive electrode case, but these methods have not always achieved sufficient effects.
主にアルカリ電池の絶縁ガスケット材料には,ナイロン
66が使用されており,これらのガスケット材の結晶化

案がなされている。Nylon 66 is mainly used as an insulating gasket material for alkaline batteries, and proposals have been made to use these gasket materials with increased crystallinity (40-46% crystallinity).

が高くなク圧縮応力も上昇し、吸水性も減少し,この面
では電池の耐漏液特性は向上する。Under the above conditions, as the degree of crystallinity increases, tensile strength and hardness increase, compressive stress also increases, water absorption also decreases, and in this respect, the leakage resistance of the battery improves.

いう問題がある。However, since the gasket is heated at high temperatures to increase its crystallinity, it deteriorates, the gasket becomes too hard, and cracks occur when the sealing gasket is tightened, causing short circuits due to contact between the sealing plate and the positive electrode case, and cracks. There is a problem with the generation of liquid.

は変化し、一般には20〜27%で、高い結晶化度をつ
くるのは、量産上むずかしい。Insulating gaskets using nylon 66 as a material are injection molded and tabulated, but the crystallinity varies depending on the injection molding conditions, and is generally 20 to 27%. Difficult to mass produce.
そこで結晶化度をあげるため,80〜90’Cの温水中
