- Electrochemical devices convert chemical energy into electrical energy using electrochemical reactions.
- lithium secondary batteries have been widely used due to their high energy density and voltage, long cycle life, and wide range of applications.
- a lithium secondary battery may include an electrode assembly manufactured with a cathode, an anode, and a separator disposed between the cathode and the anode, and the electrode assembly may be manufactured by being housed in a case together with an electrolyte.
- the separator may include a porous coating layer including a polymer binder and inorganic particles on at least one surface of a porous substrate.
- the inorganic particles may be connected to other inorganic particles by the polymer binder to form an interstitial volume, and lithium ions may pass through the interstitial volume to move.
- the polymer binder may provide adhesiveness to the porous coating layer, and the porous coating layer may be adhered to the porous substrate and the electrode, respectively.
- a porous coating layer including a polymer binder and inorganic particles can prevent heat shrinkage of a porous polymer substrate, and a separator including the porous coating layer exhibits excellent dimensional stability in a dry state without an electrolyte.
- the adhesive strength of the polymer binder may decrease when the polymer binder swells due to the electrolyte, or when the separator is exposed to a temperature of about 130° C. or higher depending on the operation of a lithium secondary battery including the separator. In such a high-temperature wet state, the adhesive strength of the porous coating layer decreases, causing the separator to shrink significantly.
- a cylindrical battery in which an electrode assembly is wound and inserted into a case while tension is applied to the electrode assembly requires relatively less adhesive strength between the electrode and the separator than a pouch-type battery, and therefore, there was a problem in that the dimensional stability in a wet state was lowered further due to a small content of polymer binder.
- the present invention aims to provide a separator for an electrochemical device having excellent heat resistance and improved shrinkage ratio when immersed in an electrolyte by controlling the packing density of inorganic particles included in a porous coating layer and configuring the membrane to further include an organic filler.
- One aspect of the present invention provides a separator for an electrochemical device, comprising a porous polymer substrate and a porous coating layer formed on at least one surface of the porous polymer substrate, wherein the porous coating layer comprises a polymer binder, inorganic particles, and organic fillers, the polymer binder is included in an amount of 1 to 10 parts by weight based on the total weight of the porous coating layer, and the packing density of the inorganic particles is 2 g/cm 3 or more and 2.5 g/cm 3 or less.
