A battery, a primary alkaline battery, has a cathode including manganese dioxide, carbon, and a binder. The manganese dioxide is selected to have a high power coefficient to provide the battery capable of high current discharge.

Battery comprising manganese dioxide having a high power coefficient

A method of making a cathode includes determining a sample of manganese dioxide having a power coefficient greater than about 3.4, and incorporating the sample of manganese dioxide into the cathode. The cathode can be incorporated into a battery, e.g., a cylindrical primary alkaline battery.
