<Conventional technology> Since alkaline batteries use powdered IF lead gelled with a gelling agent and an alkaline electrolyte for the negative electrode, the surface area of zinc increases dramatically and the discharge performance of the battery improves. Demand for high-load batteries is high. however,
Even alkaline batteries with such good performance have the disadvantage of leakage due to creep of the alkaline electrolyte contained in the negative electrode. In order to prevent such leakage caused by leakage and improve the storage performance of batteries, in current alkaline batteries, sealants such as gaskets and gaskets are made of a material that is hard to adhere to the positive electrode can and negative terminal plate. In addition, various improvements have been made to the shape and structure of the sealing part.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> By the way, as a gelling agent used for the negative electrode, CMC is mainly used because it has high gel strength and good workability.
Immediately after being mixed with an alkaline electrolyte, CMC absorbs the alkaline electrolyte and is in a swollen state, but it gradually releases the alkaline electrolyte, so when CMC is used with a gelling agent. contains alkaline electrolyte and CM during storage.

As a result of various studies on alternative gelling agents, we found that when water-soluble nylon powder is used as a gelling agent, C

That is, the alkaline battery of the present invention uses water-soluble nylon powder as a gelling agent for powdered zinc in an alkaline battery using glued powdered dumbbell as a negative electrode. The inventor's experiments have confirmed that the optimal amount of water-soluble nylon powder to be used is in the range of 1 to 7 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of powdered zinc.

<Example> In the example shown in Fig. 1 in which the present invention is applied to a button-type alkaline battery, 1 and 2 are respectively made of a positive electrode can and a negative electrode terminal plate made of stainless steel, and 3 is made of a synthetic resin such as polypropylene or nylon. 4 is a positive electrode mixture made of manganese dioxide mixed with a conductive agent and a binder, 5 is a separator made of polypropylene, cellophane, etc., and 6 is for powder (lead is mixed with an alkaline electrolyte and water-soluble nylon powder). The negative electrode is formed by gelation.

Next is the mixing ratio of powdered zinc and water-soluble nylon.
According to experiments conducted by the present inventor, it was found that it is optimal to use 1 to 7 parts by weight of water-soluble nylon powder per 100 parts by weight of powdered zinc. In other words, if the amount of unused water-soluble nylon powder is less than 1 part by weight, the gel strength will be insufficient and workability will deteriorate. In addition, the alkaline electrolyte is insufficiently retained by the water-soluble nylon powder, resulting in a sharp increase in the rate of leakage. On the other hand, since the water-soluble nylon powder itself is an insulator, if the amount used exceeds 7V, the internal resistance of the battery will increase sharply, causing a decrease in battery discharge performance.

In Figure 2, the solid line indicates the leakage rate (%) when the battery is stored for 100 days at a temperature of 60°C and a relative temperature of 90% after manufacturing, and the water-soluble nylon powder content (100 parts by weight of zinc powder). The results are shown for each case where the weight percentage (% by weight) was changed. In addition, the dotted lines show the results of measuring the changes in the internal resistance (Ω) of the battery when changing the water-soluble nylon powder content.From these results, it can be seen that the water-soluble nylon powder The content is 1-7% heavy silver (
