(B) Conventional technology As a cadmium cathode used in nickel-cadmium storage batteries and the like, a non-sintering type cadmium cathode such as a paste type, which has a simple manufacturing process and a low manufacturing cost, is widely used industrially. This type of cadmium cathode was prepared by kneading an active material such as cadmium oxide powder or cadmium hydroxide powder together with a paste solution onto a conductive core, applying and filling the paste, and then performing drying and chemical conversion treatment. After that, it is manufactured by washing with water and drying. However, this type of non-sintered cadmium cathode has a problem of low utilization. In order to improve the utilization rate of this cadmium cathode, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 62-243245 discloses that a cadmium salt solution containing indium and 100 mesh pass (average particle size: 10 μm) is used as metal cadmium which is a precharge product. It has been proposed to use substituted cadmium which is formed by reacting with zinc powder. According to this method, it is possible to improve the utilization rate of the cadmium cathode, but there is a limit to the improvement of the utilization rate.

(E) Action When reacting a cadmium salt solution containing indium with a zinc powder to produce a substituted cadmium containing indium, the reactivity of the substituted cadmium containing indium is determined by the particle size of the zinc powder added to the cadmium salt solution. The present invention has been completed by discovering that the above changes. Substitutional cadmium having a larger specific surface area, that is, finer particles, is more reactive, and it is possible to increase the utilization rate of the cadmium cathode using the substitutional cadmium.
For this purpose, it is effective to react a cadmium salt solution with zinc powder having an average particle size of 8 μm or less. In this case, the time required for the substitution reaction becomes short, the cadmium crystal cannot grow completely, and the above reaction ends with the fine crystal. As a result, the obtained substituted cadmium has a large surface area for electrochemical reaction, and the indium present at this time increases the lattice defects of the substituted cadmium, thereby increasing the reactivity. Therefore, the utilization factor of the cadmium cathode using the substituted cadmium can be further improved.
