Abstract
In an electrochemical cell in which a container is bonded to a cap, observation of liquid leakage has been needed in directions from four sides of the container, therefore much time and high cost have been required. The outer circumference of the cap is made to be smaller than that of the container, whereby surfaces for observing liquid leakage can be made to be only one surface in a direction from an upside of the cap, consequently an electrochemical cell can be provided at low cost.
