  • Publication number: 20230057775
    Abstract: A roughened nickel-plated sheet including a roughened nickel layer on at least one surface of a metal substrate as the outermost layer thereof, the roughened nickel layer being formed of a plurality of nickel protrusions. When the structure of the roughened nickel-plated sheet is observed at height positions with a focused ion beam scanning electron microscope (FIB-SEM), the absolute value of the change rate of the nickel occupancy is equal to or less than a predetermined value, and the nickel occupancy and the number of nickel protrusions present at a height position located 2.0 ?m from the base position of the roughened nickel layer toward the surface in the height direction are equal to or more than predetermined values, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20210175513
    Abstract: [Problem] To provide a laminated electrolytic foil having strength sufficient to successfully suppress tearing or ripping during manufacture, the tearing or ripping being concerned accompanying with a trend toward thinner structures in battery current collectors, and improved in handling properties during the manufacture, and also a battery using the laminated electrolytic foil. [Solution] A laminated electrolytic foil includes a first metal layer formed from Cu and a second metal layer formed from Ni or an Ni alloy, in which the first metal layer and the second metal layer are laminated together. The laminated electrolytic foil has an overall layer thickness, which is the thickness of the laminated electrolytic foil as a whole, of 3 to 15 ?m and tensile strength of 700 MPa or higher.
