Historically, mercury was used in button batteries to reduce the levels of hydrogen gas inside the battery and for a long time, the elimination of this mercury was considered technically impossible. Driven by a desire to improve standards of enivornmental and consumer protection, Murata undertook the challenge of designing mercury-free silver oxide batteries in the early 2000s. Murata successfully introduced the world’s first mercury-free silver oxide batteries in 2004 and went on to develop a mercury-free alkaline manganese button battery in 2009.

Unique manufacturing process
for strong anti-leakage performance

Murata’s button batteries have superior anti-leakage performance thanks to its unique sealing material and technology. Our patented “J-shaped gasket” was invented as a unique sealing solution to maintain air pressure inside the battery. Optimization of the gasket shape results in the reduction of leakage risks during long-term storage.

Cumulative production
total of over 10 billion units

In 1977, Murata started its production of button batteries and over the following four decades, we achieved a cumulative production total of over 10 billion units. Murata continues to focus our R&D efforts towards developing battery solutions which protect the environment while exceeding customer expectations for reliability and performance.
