  • Publication number: 20240030553
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing a separator for lead acid storage batteries, said method comprising a surface layer formation step which includes: a coating liquid preparation step wherein a coating liquid that contains a solvent, a conductive material and a high-molecular-weight compound is prepared; a coating step wherein the coating liquid obtained in the coating liquid preparation step is applied to at least one surface of a separator base material; and a solvent removal step wherein the solvent is removed from the coating liquid that has been applied to the separator base material in the coating step. With respect to this method for producing a separator for lead acid storage batteries, the high-molecular-weight compound is contained in an amount of from 0.1% by mass to 25% by mass relative to the solid content of the coating liquid.
