A laminated film (hereinafter referred to as a laminate) in which aluminum and aluminum foil are laminated, 4 is a conductive plastic used as an intermediate electrode, and the positive electrode mixture layer 2a,
2b and the negative electrode mixture layers 5a and 5b are applied. Further, the separators 3a and 3b impregnated with the electrolytic solution separate the positive and negative electrode mixture layers. Here, the negative electrode mixture layers 5a and 5b are printed by a coating method such as a screen printing method or an extrusion method with a zinc metal powder as a main component and a small amount of a binder such as ethyl cellulose added thereto. Even if the amount is small, it maintains a relatively stable adhesive force and does not hinder the battery reaction. However, the positive electrode mixture layers 2a, 2
Since b is mainly composed of manganese dioxide which is an oxide, acetylene black is added to make electrical contact with the inside of the positive electrode active material. Since acetylene black is a powder made of extremely small particles, a certain amount of binder is required to adhere it to the surfaces of the conductive plastic plates 1 and 4. Conventionally, an acrylic emulsion has been used for this adhesive. The adhesive component in the acrylic emulsion mixes evenly with the positive electrode mixture to bind particles of manganese dioxide powder or acetylene black powder, and at the same time, functions as a binder to adhere to the surface of the conductive plastic.

Further, when using the acrylic-based aeration as a binder, it is necessary to add a small amount of a dispersant in order to make the mixing with the granules uniform, and in order to remove air bubbles generated by mixing when stirring, a small amount of a dispersant is required. The addition of antifoam was necessary. The addition of such substances that do not participate in the original battery reaction is necessary in the case of manufacturing a thin battery, but there is a conflicting problem that it must be reduced as much as possible in order to efficiently carry out the battery reaction.
