First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A lead-acid battery comprising a negative electrode plate, a positive electrode plate, an electrolyte solution, and a separator, wherein the negative electrode plate includes a negative electrode material containing either graphite or carbon fiber, and barium sulfate, and an average plate interval S between the negative electrode plate and the positive electrode plate, and a mass W of the negative electrode material per one negative electrode plate are in a ratio S/W of 0.01 mm/g or more. 2. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the negative electrode material contains 0.6 mass % or more of barium sulfate. 3. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the negative electrode material contains 1.2 mass % or more of barium sulfate. 4. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the negative electrode material contains carbon black. 5. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the negative electrode material contains less than 2.5 mass % of graphite or less than 2.5 mass % of carbon fiber. 6. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio S/W is 0.02 mm/g or less. 7. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the negative electrode material contains 3.5 mass % or less of barium sulfate. 8. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the graphite or carbon fiber has an electric resistivity of 0.01 Ω·cm or less in powder form as measured by a four-terminal method. 9. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the barium sulfate has an oil absorption capacity of 12 mL/100 g or more. 10. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the separator has a content of silica (SiO 2 ) of 60 mass % or more. 11. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the electrolyte solution contains aluminum ions. 12. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the electrolyte solution contains aluminum ions of 0.02 mol/L or more. 13. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the electrolyte solution contains lithium ions. 14. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the electrolyte solution contains lithium ions of 0.01 mol/L or more. 15. The lead-acid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the graphite or carbon fiber is scalelike graphite or expanded graphite. 16. A lead-acid battery comprising a negative electrode plate, a positive electrode plate, an electrolyte solution, and a separator, wherein the negative electrode plate includes a negative electrode material containing either graphite or carbon fiber, and elemental barium, and an average plate interval S between the negative electrode plate and the positive electrode plate, and a mass W of the negative electrode material per one negative electrode plate are in a ratio S/W of 0.01 mm/g or more.
