Abstract: Disclosed is a rechargeable alkaline storage cell having a negative electrode, a positive electrode, and a separator disposed between the electrodes. The negative electrode has an active material layer and a conductive layer formed on the active layer, the active layer including cadmium active material, the conductive layer including polyvinylpyrrolidone as a binder and conductive powder.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an enclosed alkaline storage cell. The enclosed alkaline storage cell comprising a negative electrode made of materials including a main active material of cadmium oxide, a positive electrode, and a separator impregnated with an alkaline electrolytic solution and interposed therebetween, characterized in that the negative electrode has a product produced by cross linking reaction between high polymers having hydroxyl group and at least one of boric acid and boric acid salt inside and/or on the surface thereof.

Abstract: A paste-type cadmium electrode for use in an alkaline storage cell, comprising a conductive substrate, an active material layer mainly comprising cadmium oxide and formed on a surface of the conductive substrate, and a conductive layer or a nickel body formed on a surface of the active material layer.The conductive layer either has therein powdered carbon and powdered alkali-resistant metal having a surface area of 0.001 to 0.5 m.sup.2 against 1 g of the active material; comprises powdered carbon, a binder and powdered alkali-resistant metal having an apparent density of 0.2 g/cc or less; or comprises a first conductive layer formed on a surface of the active material layer and comprising powdered alkali-resistant metal and a binder, and a second conductive layer formed on a surface of the first conductive layer and comprising powdered carbon and a binder.The nickel body is dispersed on a surface of the active material layer, the nickel body comprising fiber-type nickel having an average fiber diameter of 1 .

Abstract: A cadmium non-sintered negative electrode for use in an alkaline storage cell comprising a main active material comprising at least one of powdered cadmium oxide and powdered cadmium hydroxide; a reserve charging substance comprising powdered metal cadmium; and an additive comprising powdered nickel hydroxide whose grain shape is substantially globe and/or whose average grain size is 1.5 to 200 .mu.m.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a nickel hydroxide electrode for use in an alkaline storage cell. The disclosed method comprises a first step of forming cobalt hydroxide on surfaces of a porous nickel sintered plaque, a second step of changing the cobalt hydroxide into cobalt oxyhydroxide, and a third step of carrying out an active material filling operation for the sintering plaque formed with the cobalt oxyhydroxide.
