A
polymer having a constitutional unit represented by formula (1), a constitutional unit represented by formula (2), a constitutional unit represented by formula (3), and a constitutional unit represented by formula (4) as repeating units, The present invention provides an
electrode binder characterized by having a weight-average molecular weight of 520,000 to 1,100,000 and a
creep displacement of 8% to 14% as determined by a
nanoindentation test in accordance with ISO14577-1. [Formula 1] TIFF0007780687000017.tif48115 [Case 2] TIFF0007780687000018.tif48115However, in equation (1) and equation (2), R 1 , R 2 each independently represents a
