Abstract
Provided is a highly reliable button-shaped alkaline battery having excellent load characteristics. A button-shaped alkaline battery includes: a positive electrode having a positive electrode mixture layer containing a silver oxide and a conductive assistant; a negative electrode containing zinc particles; an alkaline electrolyte solution; and a battery container for accommodating the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the alkaline electrolyte solution, the battery container including an outer can, a sealing plate, and a resin gasket. The positive electrode mixture layer contains carbon black and graphite particles as the conductive assistant, and an amount of water in the battery container is 0.63 to 1 g per 1 g of the zinc particles of the negative electrode.
