Separator having porous coating layer, method for manufacturing the same and electrochemical device having the same

Abstract

A separator includes a porous substrate having a plurality of pores; and a porous coating layer formed on at least one surface of the porous substrate and made of a mixture of a binder and a plurality of inorganic particles, wherein the binder includes a crosslinked binder. This separator may improve high temperature cycle performance, discharge characteristics and thermal resistance of an electrochemical device since the separator exhibits improved insolubility and impregnation to electrolyte and improved thermal resistance.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a separator of an electrochemical device such as a lithium secondary battery and an electrochemical device having the same, and more particularly to a separator having a porous coating layer made of a mixture of inorganic particles and binder polymer and formed on a surface of a porous substrate and an electrochemical device having the same.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Recently, there has been an increasing interest in energy storage technology. Batteries have been widely used as energy sources in the fields of cellular phones, camcorders, notebook computers, PCs and electric cars, resulting in intensive research and development into them. In this regard, electrochemical devices are one of the subjects of great interest. Particularly, development of rechargeable secondary batteries has been the focus of attention, among which the development of a secondary chargeable / dischargeable battery is most interested.[0003]Among currently used seco...
