ALKALINE BATTERY SEPARATOR AND ALKALINE BATTERY USING SEPARATOR
First Claim
1. An alkaline battery separator comprising at least a coarse layer (A) and a dense layer (B) denser than the coarse layer,the coarse layer (A) comprising an alkaline-resistant synthetic fiber (A), an alkaline-resistant binder fiber (A) and an alkaline-resistant cellulose fiber (A), and containing the alkaline-resistant cellulose fiber (A) in the proportion of 25 to 65% by weight therein,the alkaline-resistant cellulose fiber (A) having a freeness value of 350 to 650 ml as a whole and including at least two kinds of alkaline-resistant cellulose fibers having different freeness with each other, in which the difference in freeness value between the alkaline-resistant cellulose fibers having the highest and lowest freeness values is 300 to 700 ml;
- the dense layer (B) comprising an alkaline-resistant synthetic fiber (B), an alkaline-resistant binder fiber (B) and an alkaline-resistant cellulose fiber (B),the alkaline-resistant cellulose fiber (B), as a whole, having a freeness value of 0 to 400 ml; and
the separator having a maximum pore size of 65 μ
m or smaller, and a liquid absorption capacity of 5 g/g or higher.

Abstract
Provided are an alkaline battery separator and an alkaline battery including the separator. The separator includes at least a coarse layer and a dense layer denser than the coarse layer. The coarse layer contains an alkaline-resistant cellulose fiber having a freeness value of 350 to 650 ml as a whole in the proportion of 25 to 65% by weight. The alkaline-resistant cellulose fiber includes at least two kinds of alkaline-resistant cellulose fibers having different freeness with each other. The difference in freeness value between the alkaline-resistant cellulose fibers having the highest and lowest freeness values is 300 to 700 ml. The dense layer contains an alkaline-resistant cellulose fiber which as a whole has a freeness value of 0 to 400 ml. The separator has a maximum pore size of 65 μm or smaller, and a liquid absorption capacity of 5 g/g or higher.
