Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a porous substrate for alkaline storage battery having increased mechanical strength, high productivity, and low cost by covering the surface of fibers with nickel alloy and bonding between fibers. CONSTITUTION:A 70% alcohol suspension of low melting point nickel alloy powder prepared by adding a small amount of boron or phophorus to nickel is sprayed to a mat made of alkali resistant fibers to stick the nickel alloy powder on the surfaces of fibers. The mat is pressed by placing a carbon plate thereon and placed in an atmosphere of hydrogen kept at 800-1,000 deg.C, then cooled and cut to obtain a porous substrate. The atomosphere of non-oxidizing gas such as nitrogen and argon may be used for heating and cooling. Iron, nickel, carbon, or stainless steel can be used as the material for alkali resistant fiber.

Conventionally, as a manufacturing method for a porous substrate for a fiber-type alkaline storage battery, a distribution body in which iron or nickel fibers, which are alkali-resistant gold jI fibers, are distributed in a mat-like manner is heated in a reducing atmosphere with W at 900 to 1200°C. The fibers were held in an air furnace for 10 to 20 minutes to sinter the contact points between the fibers, and the iron fibers were coated with nickel by electroplating or electroless plating. However, the porous substrate manufactured by this manufacturing method is
In order to increase the filling volume of the active material as much as possible, it is necessary to rely on sintering by surface diffusion of the metal fiber body, which has the disadvantage that the sintering strength of the sintered porous substrate is low. When such a substrate with low sintering strength is used, trouble often arises in that the porous substrate is cut during continuous manufacturing steps such as active material filling and drying. As a result, the production efficiency of the electrode plates is reduced, and the cut portions are defective, resulting in poor yields. In order to obtain strength, it is necessary to heat it to a high temperature of 1,200°C or more, or to heat it for a long time of several tens of minutes, resulting in extremely high equipment manufacturing and maintenance costs, or production costs. I had no choice but to have extremely bad sex.

and 9ONi-10B alloy (30 wt%). A methanol suspension of a low melting point nickel alloy is sprayed onto the iron fiber distribution body to make it adhere. A carbon plate is placed on a distribution body with low melting point nickel alloy powder attached to the fiber surface, and pressure is applied so that the thickness of the distribution body becomes about 3 to 5 mm.The pressurized distribution body is heated to a temperature of 800 to 1000 in a hydrogen atmosphere. After being held at a temperature of 10 to 20 minutes, it was cooled to below j00'c in the same atmosphere, taken out into the air, and cut to obtain the porous substrate shown in FIG. The atmosphere for this heating and cooling may be a non-oxidizing atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon.
