Abstract: A metal-air battery includes: a cathode formed of a co-continuous body having a three dimensional network structure formed by an integrated plurality of nanostructures having branches; a foil- or plate-like anode formed of a metal; a separator that absorbs a liquid, which is to be an electrolytic solution; and a foil- or plate-like current collector formed of a metal. The metal-air battery is formed with a wound structure in which the current collector, the cathode, the separator, the anode, and the separator are superimposed and wound in this order.

Abstract: A metal-air battery includes: an air electrode; a negative electrode; an ion exchange membrane that separates the air electrode and the negative electrode from each other; an air-electrode-side electrolytic solution that is disposed between the air electrode and the ion exchange membrane; and a negative-electrode-side electrolytic solution that is disposed between the negative electrode and the ion exchange membrane. The negative-electrode-side electrolytic solution contains a surfactant.

Abstract: A tilt sensor includes a notification unit adapted to provide notification about occurrence of tilt; a water storage chamber that contains an electrolytic solution; and a unit cell that includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator placed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. When the water storage chamber tilts, the electrolytic solution is injected into the separator and the unit cell starts generating power and supplies electric power needed to drive the notification unit.
