The projection of the second intersection point O on the first surface 105 or the second surface 106 of the electrode assembly 10 where the part of the negative electrode tab 13 having the first intersection point A is located is a third intersection point O'.

The first layer 11 contains an insulating material. The insulating material can be selected from at least one of polypropylene, polyethylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene copolymer, polymethyl methacrylate, or polyethylene glycol.

[0129] In some embodiments, the thickness range of the housing is from 80 μm to 150 μm. The thicker the housing is, the more helpful it is to improve corrosion, and the influence of the distance L between the third intersection point O' and the first intersection point A on corrosion will become weaker.
