Abstract: A halopropyldimethylchlorosilane is prepared by
reacting dimethylchlorosilane with an allyl halide in the
presence of an iridium catalyst. The reaction is effected
in the presence of an internal olefin compound, typically
1,5-cyclooctadiene. The internal olefin compound suppresses
deactivation of the iridium catalyst during reaction. Using
a smaller amount of the iridium catalyst, the process
produces the halopropyldimethylchlorosilane in high yields.

Abstract: In a rectangular alkaline storage battery, the sides of
negative cores of negative electrode plates 10, which are
disposed at the outermost positions of the group of electrode
plates and oppose an outer casing can 40, are exposed. The pore
ratios (ratio of total area taken up by pores to area of electrode
plate) of the exposed cores must be made lower than those of
the other unexposed cores. The pore ratio of the exposed negative
core is specified as falling within a range of 10% to 40%. As
a result, the negative electrode plates 10 are improved in binding
strength, thereby inhibiting exfoliation of an active material.
Further, there can be obtained a large rectangular alkaline
storage battery which has superior permeability for a gas which
would arise in the battery, an improved capacity ratio, and
greater volumetric energy density.
