The results of the life performance are shown in FIG. 1, and when the amount of Sb added was 0.005 to 1%, particularly when the positive electrode active material density was 3.75 g / cc or more, a remarkable improvement was observed. After battery case formation, another battery having the same configuration was disassembled, and the amount of antimony deposited on the negative electrode plate was analyzed. FIG. 2 shows the results.
When an electrode plate of 75 g / cc or less was used, the amount of antimony deposited on the negative electrode plate was large.

ある。As can be seen from the results, when the density of the positive electrode active material is low, the added antimony elutes into the electrolytic solution, and then precipitates on the negative electrode plate, thereby deteriorating the life performance. Since it is known that PbO 2 as a positive electrode active material has the ability to adsorb antimony, in order to keep the added antimony in the positive electrode plate, the positive electrode plate must have an active material density suitable for the amount of antimony added. Must have.

In addition, although antimony sulfate was used as antimony, the results did not differ significantly even when antimony metal or antimony trioxide was similarly added and tested.
