However, there is a limit to the improvement of the utilization rate of the active material with respect to the improvement of the energy density, and there is no special measure for the increase of super power of the storage battery.

There are problems such as shortening with the positive electrode, and it has not been put to practical use as a chargeable / dischargeable battery.

Means for Solving the Problems In general, means for amalgamating the surface of the negative electrode active material with mercury in order to suppress the reaction relating to the dissolution is well known. However, there is a serious problem regarding mercury pollution at the time of disposal of a long-life battery, and its use is being excluded from other primary batteries and secondary batteries. The present invention solves such a problem, and is a new lead storage battery having a higher voltage, a higher energy density, and a new sealing function than the conventional lead storage battery. That is, a cathode gas absorption type lead dioxide-zinc acid battery in which lead dioxide is used for the positive electrode, zinc is used as the main electrode material for the negative electrode, and dilute sulfuric acid is used as the electrolytic solution. It is configured to be held in a separator or gel-like substance, and the electrolyte solution around the negative electrode and the negative electrode is made as small as possible, which reduces the solubility of zinc and prevents self-discharge and dendrite formation, and at the same time, the cathode gas. For the first time, it is possible to obtain a lead dioxide-zinc acid battery which has a higher voltage and a higher energy density than conventional lead storage batteries and which can be put to practical use for the first time by providing an absorbing function and preventing the decrease of the electrolytic solution.

First, when zinc is used as the negative electrode active material, if a lead storage battery having a conventional configuration is adopted, a large amount of electrolytic solution, that is, dilute sulfuric acid, exists (immerses) around the negative electrode and the negative electrode, and the zinc is not dissolved. It is in a state of promotion.

Conventionally, as a means for suppressing this dissolution, a method of converting a zinc electrode into an amalgam by using mercury has been proposed. However, in order to avoid Hg remaining in the waste battery, we tried to take a new approach. That is, the amount of electrolyte around the negative electrode and the negative electrode is made as small as possible to reduce the solubility of zinc, and at the same time, it is easy to absorb the oxygen gas generated from the positive electrode during charging, thus preventing a decrease in the amount of electrolyte. It is intended to be done.
