Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a battery cell including an electrode assembly and electrolyte provided in a battery case composed of a laminate sheet having a resin layer and a metal layer, which includes; (a) thermally fusing and sealing the periphery of the case except for an end part thereof while the electrode assembly is mounted in the case; (b) introducing the electrolyte through the unsealed end part then sealing the same by thermal fusion; (c) charging and discharging the battery cell to activate the same; (d) puncturing the unsealed part inside the end part to form a through-hole communicating with the inside of the case; and (e) pulling top and bottom faces of the battery case in the opposite direction to each other at the unsealed part to open the same while applying vacuum pressure, to thereby remove the gas generated during activation as well as excess electrolyte.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a device for laminating an electrode assembly including a cathode, an anode and a separator interposed therebetween laminated in this order by thermal bonding, the device including an inlet, through which a web having the cathode/separator/anode laminate structure is fed, a heater to heat the web and thereby induce thermal bonding between the cathode, the separator and the anode, an outlet through which the thermally bonded web is discharged, and a transporter to transport the web through the inlet, the heater and the outlet, wherein the transporter imparts a transport driving force to the web in a state that the transporter contacts at least one of the top and the bottom of the web and the heater directly heats a region of the transporter contacting the web and thereby transfers thermal bonding energy to the web.
Abstract:
An alkali-soluble resin is provided. The alkali-soluble resin is prepared using a polyfunctional thiol compound as a chain transfer agent. The alkali-soluble resin has a lower viscosity than a resin having the same molecular weight. Further provided is a negative-type photosensitive resin composition comprising the alkali-soluble resin as a binder resin. The use of the alkali-soluble resin lowers the overall viscosity of the photosensitive resin composition to effectively reduce the height of a stepped portion of a photoresist pattern using a small amount of the photosensitive resin composition.

Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a battery cell including an electrode assembly and electrolyte provided in a battery case made of a laminate sheet having a resin layer and a metal layer, which includes: (a) mounting the electrode assembly in the battery case and sealing the periphery of the battery case except for one end part thereof through thermal fusion; (b) introducing the electrolyte through the unsealed end part and sealing the end via thermal fusion; (c) charging-discharging the battery cell to activate the same; (d) transferring gas generated during activation and excess electrolyte to the foregoing end part of the battery cell by centrifugal force; and (e) removing the gas and excess electrolyte from the end part.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a device for cutting an electrode sheet laminate wherein two or more continuous electrode sheets, in which an electrode active material is applied to one or both surfaces thereof, are laminated, to form a plurality of unit electrode laminates from the electrode sheet laminate, the device including a cutter to cut the electrode sheet laminate at a set position and thereby form unit electrode laminates, and two or more transport grippers arranged at the front of the cutter based on a feed direction of the electrode sheet laminate, the transport grippers drawing and transporting the electrode sheet laminate by one pitch, a size corresponding to the unit electrode laminate according to operation of the cutter, wherein while one of the transport grippers draws and transports the electrode sheet laminate, the remaining transport grippers move to a position for drawing.
