Alkaline dry battery

摘要

In an alkaline dry battery, a sealant comprising grease with a worked penetration of from 175 to 475 is disposed between an opening end of a metal case and a peripheral end of a sealing body. This sealant, comprising the above grease, differs from a conventional sealant in being usable without using an organic solvent. This sealant is also capable of preventing creeping of an electrolyte between the metal case and the sealing body.
