Abstract

Provided is a separator for alkaline batteries which can not only prevent batteries from internal short circuit by inhibiting the dendrite formation at anode, but also enables to have a low electrical resistance. The separator for alkaline batteries comprises a composite sheet in which a base layer comprising a wet-type nonwoven material formed from alkaline resistant fibers is covered with a nanofiber layer comprising a modified polyvinyl alcohol fiber which has a fiber diameter of 10 to 1000 nm and a liquid absorption amount by fibers of 4.0 to 40.0 g/g after immersion in a 35% aqueous solution of KOH.
