When we use Integer.toBinaryString(11),it returns 1011.Method removes leading zeros if any.How to add these leading zeros if there are many integers to be converted to binary string?

1011 is the decimal number 11 converted to binary format. Please explain your problem using an example of where you think the output is incorrect.

As far as I know you would have to do the padding yourself after you get the String representation.

And before you go and write some code to do that, take a look at org.apache.commons.lang.StringUtils.leftPad()
