Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a button-type air cell which provides a stabilized open- circuit voltage during preservation by adding manganese dioxide having different crystal phases to a positive catalyst which contains manganese sesquioxide. CONSTITUTION:In a button-type air cell, a positive catalyst (air electrode) is made of a mixture consisting of a conductive member such as active carbon or a graphite and manganese sesquioxide which is used for increasing the catalytic ability, and contains at least four kinds of manganese dioxide having different crystal phases, such as of the gamma, alpha, beta and the delta types. The ratio by weight of the entire manganese dioxide to manganese sesquioxide is adjusted to 10-60pts. to 100pts. Owing to such battery constitution, variation of the open-circuit voltage of the battery seen after its preservation is reduced, and a stabilization of the battery is realized.

In order to increase this catalytic ability, which is rate-determining in the formula, the three main components are activated carbon, manganese oxide, such as manganese sesquioxide, and a conductive material such as graphite. The added material was applied to a current collector and punched out to a predetermined size to form a positive electrode catalyst (one umbrella of air).

FIG. 1 shows a partial cross-sectional view of the above-mentioned battery, and in the figure, 1 is a positive electrode case, which has a convex portion on the bottom surface of the case and has an air hole 2. 3 is air diffusion paper, 4 is graphite to give it fluorine charge, and manganese sesquioxide (1
Vin 203) Further, manganese dioxide having a different crystal phase, for example, γIaSβ, δ type, is added alone or as a mixture of two or more components to the k mixed mixture to form a -4 component or a mixture of two or more components. At this time, the amount of manganese dioxide added is 1 in violet ratio to 100 parts of manganese sesquioxide.
It is best to add 0 to 6 parts. The reason for this is that when the amount is 10 parts or less, uniform mixing is lacking, so the open circuit voltage after storage is 1.26 to 1.32V, which is somewhat stable compared to 0.98 to 1.28V in the case of no additives. Although it has a positive effect, it varies widely. In addition, if it is more than 60 parts, the potential of the added manganese dioxide directly affects the battery voltage, and 1
.. The voltage rises to 380 to 1.412V, and there is a large variation, and when stored with this battery 'IeoC, it loses 1V in about 20 days.
.. It becomes even more unstable at 32 to 1,36V. This potential drop occurs because manganese dioxide undergoes self-discharge.
