収速度を向上せしめる。(B) Conventional technology The paste-type cadmium cathode plate has advantages over the sintered cadmium cathode plate, such as simple manufacturing process, low manufacturing cost, and high energy density. Since it has poor conductivity, it has a drawback in that it has a poor ability to absorb oxygen gas generated from the anode due to overcharging, and the internal gas pressure tends to rise when used in a sealed battery. For this reason, a method of forming a conductive material to give conductivity is taken, but this method loses the merit that the manufacturing process of the paste type cadmium cathode plate is simple and the manufacturing cost is low. Therefore, JP-A-60-6387
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5 (1994) proposes that a paste-type cadmium cathode plate having excellent oxygen gas absorption ability can be obtained by forming a conductive layer made of carbon powder on the surface layer of the paste-like active material. That is, the surface of the paste-like active material layer mainly containing cadmium oxide is coated with a slurry prepared by dispersing carbon powder in an aqueous solution of a hydrophilic paste such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and dried to form a strong carbon layer. This carbon has conductivity, and when the battery is charged, the active material in the surface layer is preferentially charged, and the chemical oxygen gas absorption rate based on the following formula is improved.
Cd+1/2O2+H2O→Cd(OH)2 しかしこの方法においても全く問題がない訳ではない。

い。Cd + 1 / 2O 2 + H 2 O → Cd (OH) 2 However, this method is not completely free of problems.
Since a hydrophilic paste is used to fix the carbon powder, the surface of the cathode plate is easily wetted by the electrolytic solution, and when the amount of electrolytic solution in the battery is increased, oxygen gas absorption is inferior to that of the chemical conversion method. There is a point. On the other hand, in terms of the discharge characteristics and cycle life of the battery, it is desirable that the amount of the electrolytic solution be as large as possible.

ら水素ガスが発生しやすい事が知得されている。On the other hand, various proposals have been made to improve the oxygen gas absorption capacity without lowering other characteristics by treating the surface of the electrode with water repellency to lower the wetting characteristics. As a typical example, as described in JP-A-57-96463, an active material paste containing a cadmium oxide powder as a main component and a hydrophilic paste is applied to a conductive core and then dried. A method of pressurizing and then impregnating with a fluororesin dispersion can be mentioned. In this method, while focusing on the surface layer of the active material, a part of the fluororesin is incorporated into the inside of the active material to improve the strength of the electrode plate. Certainly, according to this method, it is possible to impart water repellency to the surface of the electrode plate. However, it is not without problems. That is, the residual porosity of the electrode plate is 50% or more when the active material layer is pressed in advance, and unnecessary fine particles of fluororesin infiltrate into the pores of the active material layer, and the fluororesin is an insulating material. Therefore, the electrode reaction is liable to be hindered, and it is practically difficult to adopt. Further, since the aqueous dispersion of fluororesin is directly impregnated into the active material layer mainly composed of cadmium oxide, the cadmium oxide is hydrated and partially converted into cadmium hydroxide, resulting in swelling of the electrode plate. The cadmium hydroxide generated at this time is apt to cause generation of hydrogen gas during the initial charging of the battery, which is a problem. It has been known that cadmium hydroxide produced by hydration outside the battery system has particularly poor conductivity and is likely to generate hydrogen gas from the beginning of charging.

It is characterized in that a conductive carbon layer in which the fluororesin powder is present is provided.

The surface of the cathode plate is easily wet with the electrolytic solution.

大幅に向上する。However, in the cathode plate of the present invention, since the fine particles of the fluororesin are present in the carbon thin layer, it is possible to form an infinite number of microscopic water repellent points in the carbon layer on the surface of the cathode plate. By forming these water repellent points, the oxygen gas generated from the anode can easily approach the carbon powder thin layer on the surface of the cathode plate even if the amount of electrolyte in the battery is increased. The reaction between the formed metal cadmium and oxygen occurs promptly. Further, the fluororesin does not come into direct contact with the cathode active material and does not interfere with the electrode reaction. Further, since the two-dimensional surface of the carbon layer in which the fluororesin is not present is present on the surface of the cadmium electrode, it is considered that the conductivity of the carbon layer is significantly affected. As a result, the oxygen gas absorption performance is significantly improved.

結果を、第1図に示す。[Experiment 1] Using these batteries A to E, the internal pressures of the batteries were compared when charged at a current of 1.3 A (1 C) at 25 ° C. The results are shown in FIG.

いる。一方、比較電池Bは、フッ素樹脂粉末を含んだ炭
素層がカドミウム電極上に存在している陰極板bを有
し、この陰極板bは炭素単独層を有した本発明陰極板A
より導電性が低いので、酸素ガス吸収性能が劣るもので
ある。As a result, the battery A of the present invention has an extremely lower internal pressure than the comparative battery. This is because the microscopic water repellency points were formed uniformly and innumerably in the carbon layer on the surface of the cathode plate of the present invention, and the conductivity of the carbon layer was improved, so that the oxygen gas generated from the anode was easily generated. It comes from being able to approach and consume. On the other hand, the comparative battery B has a cathode plate b in which a carbon layer containing a fluororesin powder is present on a cadmium electrode, and this cathode plate b is a cathode plate A of the present invention having a carbon single layer.
Since the conductivity is lower, the oxygen gas absorption performance is inferior.
〔実験2〕 前記陰極板a〜eを用いて、25℃にて1.3Aの電流で90分
間充電した後、1.3Aの電流で放電を行い、放電容量の比
較を行った。このときの結果を、第2図に示す。[Experiment 2] Using the cathode plates a to e, after charging at 25 ° C. with a current of 1.3 A for 90 minutes, discharging was performed with a current of 1.3 A to compare the discharge capacities. The result at this time is shown in FIG.
この結果より、本発明陰極板aはフッ素樹脂を含有した
炭素層の下に、フッ素樹脂を含有していない炭素単独層
があるため、フッ素樹脂と陰極活物質とが直接接触する
ことがなく、電極反応を阻害しないので、放電容量が大
きくなる。From this result, in the cathode plate a of the present invention, since the carbon layer containing no fluororesin is present below the carbon layer containing the fluororesin, the fluororesin does not come into direct contact with the cathode active material. Since the electrode reaction is not hindered, the discharge capacity becomes large.
以上の実験結果より、以下の事が判明した。From the above experimental results, the following facts were revealed.
ペースト式カドミウム陰極板の酸素ガス吸収能力が
大幅に向上するため、急速充電耐性の優れた電池を得る
ことができる。Since the oxygen gas absorption capacity of the paste type cadmium cathode plate is significantly improved, it is possible to obtain a battery having excellent quick charge resistance.
陰極板のガス吸収能力が向上する為、従来より電池
電解液を多量に設定することが可能となり、電池の諸特
性(特にハイレトート放電特性、サイクル寿命)が向上
する。Since the gas absorption capacity of the cathode plate is improved, it becomes possible to set a large amount of battery electrolyte solution as compared with the conventional case, and various characteristics of the battery (particularly high retort discharge characteristics and cycle life) are improved.
フッ素樹脂は糊料により陰極板表面に固定されてい

により回りを取り囲まれた状態であって、更に炭素粉末
の単独層が存在している為、陰極活物質と接触すること
がなく、電極反応を阻害することもない。Since the fluororesin is fixed on the surface of the cathode plate with a paste, it can be kept fixed in the layer even after repeated charge and discharge cycles, and the oxygen gas absorption capacity can be maintained. Since it is surrounded by fine carbon particles and has a single layer of carbon powder, it does not come into contact with the cathode active material and does not hinder the electrode reaction.
