[0254] Test Section
[0255] The following tests were performed on the separators and secondary batteries of the above-mentioned Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 1-2. The test results are shown in Table 2, respectively.
[0256] (1) Thermal shrinkage test of isolation film
[0257] Sample preparation: The isolation film prepared above was punched out into samples with a width of 50 mm and a length of 100 mm using a punching machine. Five parallel samples were placed on a glass plate and fixed.
[0258] Sample test: The temperature of the forced air oven is set to 250°C. After the temperature reaches the set temperature and stabilizes for 30 minutes, the glass plate is placed in the forced air oven and the timing is 1 hour.

[0262] Table 1
[0263] Table 2
[0264] It can be seen from Table 1 and Table 2 that in Examples 1-11, the thickness T1 of the first adhesive layer and the thickness T2 of the second adhesive layer satisfy T1 / T2>1, and the isolation film produced therefrom has good heat resistance. In particular, under the specific thickness ratio design of the present application, the use of a high melting point base film can significantly improve the heat resistance of the isolation film. Based on the test results of Examples 1-8, it can be seen that by adjusting T1 / T2 within an appropriate range, the secondary battery can have better cycle performance while maintaining the heat resistance of the isolation film. Based on Examples 3 and 9-11, it can be seen that the material and thickness of the base film can affect the heat resistance of the isolation film and the cycle performance of the battery. Under the specific T1 and T2 ratio design of the present application, adjusting the material and thickness of the base film can further improve the heat resistance of the isolation film.
[0265] In contrast, Comparative Examples 1 and 2 do not satisfy the requirement that the thickness T1 of the first adhesive layer is greater than the thickness T2 of the second adhesive layer, and the heat resistance of the isolation films produced therefrom is poor, and the cycle performance of the batteries produced therefrom is poor.
