In the latter, in order to shorten the above steps, the nickel hydroxide active material itself is directly filled in a paste form with water or the like. Therefore, the substrate is composed of large pores of several tens to several hundreds of microns so that it can be filled with nickel hydroxide particles. These are three-dimensionally continuous pores called a metal fiber sintered substrate or sponge-like nickel. A porous substrate having is used. In this paste type electrode plate, since the pores of the substrate are large, the current collecting property for the active material is poorer than that of the substrate of the sinter type electrode plate, so the active material utilization rate in the paste type is 50 to 60%. . This is a drawback that is significantly worse than the active material utilization rate of 90% in the sinter type electrode plate.

An aqueous solution of nickel nitrate was dropped into an alkaline solution to generate nickel hydroxide, which was washed with water and dried to obtain an active material.
On the other hand, an aqueous cobalt nitrate solution was dropped into the alkaline solution to form cobalt hydroxide, which was washed with water and vacuum dried at about 100 ° C. to obtain pale pink β-Co (OH) 2 powder. 90 wt% of the nickel hydroxide powder thus obtained and β-Co (OH) 2 powder 1
0 wt% was ground and mixed. This crushed mixture and water in which a small amount of carboxymethyl cellulose was dissolved were added to form a paste. A nickel fiber having a fiber diameter of about 25μ was distributed by the air rate method, and then the paste was filled into a substrate having a thickness of 2 mm and a porosity of 95%, which was sintered in a reducing atmosphere. By drying and adjusting the thickness, an unformed positive electrode plate having a thickness of 0.7 mm was obtained. From this positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate made of cadmium hydroxide and metal cadmium, a nylon separator, an aqueous caustic potassium solution having a specific gravity of 1.27, etc., a cylindrical nickel cadmium storage battery of AA size was prepared. This battery was left to stand for 20 hours or more without being charged even after the liquid was injected, and then initially charged to obtain a battery of the present invention. A capacity test was carried out to compare the battery of the present invention with another battery left for a certain period of time. Discharge capacity is 3 The test was repeated.

As mentioned above, nickel hydroxide and β-Co (OH) according to the invention
It can be seen that a battery that is initially charged after being left for 20 hours or more after injecting an electrolytic solution using an unformed positive electrode plate made of a mixed powder of 2, etc. is excellent.

それ故に初充電前に放置期間が必要である。
A battery using a positive electrode plate mixed with β-Co (OH) 2 will have higher performance if left for a certain time before initial charging. The reason for this is that mixed β-Co (OH) 2 is supplied with complex ions such as HCoC 2  ̄ in an alkaline solution, and some reaction occurs on the surface of nickel hydroxide particles, which is the active material, while it is left to stand. It is considered that this enables deep discharge. Being charged with complex ions, β-Co (OH) 2 is not dissolved because it becomes passivated by CoOOH and HCoC 2  ̄ is not sufficiently supplied.
Therefore, a leaving period is required before the first charge.

Further, cobalt compounds other than β-Co (OH) 2 , such as Co 2 O 3 , Co 3 O 4 , CoHO 2 and CoOOH, which are stable in alkaline solutions, showed no change in performance.
