  • Patent number: 8262746
    Abstract: A production method for producing an electrode plate that can hold well the active material and producing a battery using the electrode plate. A production method for an electrode plate of a battery includes the steps of: forming at least one electrode plate prototype by forming a layer filled with an active material on a main surface of a plate-shaped core body; and infiltrating a liquid containing a resin and an organic solvent into at least part of a circumference of the layer filled with the active material. The applied liquid infiltrates into the circumferential region of the active material filling area, namely an outer edge of the layer and an area in its vicinity including the outer edge. The resin contained in the liquid enhances the bonding force between the conductive core body and the active material particles and between the active material particles.
