A first aspect of the present application provides a battery
jelly roll, which is formed by winding a positive
electrode sheet, a negative
electrode sheet, and a separator between the positive
electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet. At least one surface of the positive electrode sheet is provided with a positive electrode
coating, and at least one surface of the negative electrode sheet is provided with a negative electrode
coating. The negative electrode
coating comprises a negative electrode active material; the negative electrode active material at least comprises a
silicon material and a carbon material, and the weight percentage of the
silicon material in the negative electrode active material is Y%; and the
tortuosity of the separator is X, X being greater than or equal to 0.15Y0.5+1.8. A second aspect of the present invention provides a cylindrical battery, comprising the battery
jelly roll, a cap, and a steel shell. The interior of the steel shell accommodates the battery
jelly roll, and the top of the steel shell is sealed with the cap. In the present application, the
tortuosity of the separator is designed on the basis of the proportion of the
silicon-based material in the negative electrode active material, which can greatly reduce the penetration of iron and
nickel elements into the central area, thereby significantly improving the cycle performance and safety performance of the
battery cell.
