Abstract

The paste type positive electrode of the present invention contains a first active material and a second active material. The first active material comprises X parts by weight of particulate nickel hydroxide with aX/100 parts by weight of cobalt oxyhydroxide carried thereon. The second active material comprises Y parts by weight of particulate nickel oxyhydroxide, of which an oxidation number of nickel is α, with bY/100 parts by weight of cobalt oxyhydroxide carried thereon. Here, all the following relations are satisfied: (1) 2.5≦α<3.0, (2) 0.01≦(aX/100+bY/100)/(X+Y)≦0.20, (3) 0<b≦a≦10 or 0=b<a≦10, and (4) 2.1≦(2X+αY)/(X+Y)<2.2.
