Problems solved by technology

However, safety mechanisms based on electrolyte additives have drawbacks: their calorific value (J) varies with charging current and internal resistance of the battery and the timing is not uniform
However, Creavis' composite separators do not offer excellent mechanical properties due to the fundamental properties of their nonwoven webs
Moreover, because the chemical structure of polyester is easily destroyed in the electrochemical reaction, the Creavis composite separator will have many difficulties when it is actually applied to the battery ["Desalination"-vol.146, p.23(2002)]

Abstract

Disclosed is an electrode comprising a first organic / inorganic composite porous coating layer formed on its surface, wherein the first coating layer includes inorganic particles and a binder polymer for interconnecting and fixing the inorganic particles, and has micropores formed by interstitial volumes among the inorganic particles. An electrochemical device including the same electrode is also disclosed. Further, disclosed is a method for manufacturing an electrode having an organic / inorganic composite porous coating layer on the surface thereof, comprising the steps of: (a) coating a current collector with slurry containing an electrode active material and drying it to provide an electrode; and (b) coating the surface of electrode obtained from step (a) with a mixture of inorganic particles with a binder polymer. A lithium secondary battery including the electrode shows improved safety and minimized degradation in battery performance.
