Abstract:
An electrode assembly manufactured by a third method other than a stack folding method or a stack method, and an electrochemical device including thereof are disclosed. The electrode assembly includes at least one radical cell. The radical cell has a four-layered structure obtained by stacking a first electrode, a first separator, a second electrode, and a second separator one by one.
Abstract:
According to the present disclosure, there is provided an electrode assembly comprising (a) a structure in which one kind of radical unit is repeatedly disposed, the one kind of radical unit having a same number of electrodes and separators which are alternately disposed and integrally combined, or (b) a structure in which at least two kinds of radical units are disposed in a predetermined order, the at least two kinds of radical units each having a same number of electrodes and separators which are alternately disposed and integrally combined.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing an electrode assembly includes a first step of forming one kind of a radical unit or at least two kinds of radical units having an alternately stacked structure of a same number of electrodes and separators; and a second step of forming a cell stack part by repeatedly stacking one kind of the radical units, or by stacking at least two kinds of the radical units. Edge of the separator is not joined with that of adjacent separator. One kind of radical unit has a four-layered structure in which first electrode, first separator, second electrode and second separator are sequentially stacked together or a repeating structure in which the four-layered structure is repeatedly stacked, and at least two kinds of radical units are stacked by ones to form the four-layered structure or the repeating structure.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a plate-shaped secondary battery configured to have a structure in which an electrode assembly of a cathode/separator/anode structure is mounted in a battery case in a sealed state by thermal welding, wherein a protuberance is formed at an outer edge sealed portion of an electrode assembly receiving part of the battery case such that the protuberance protrudes upward and downward from the sealed portion, and the protuberance extends along the outer edge of the electrode assembly receiving part continuously in a curved line or in a straight line in a state in which the protuberance is adjacent to the electrode assembly receiving part.
Abstract:
A fabricating method of an electrode assembly according to the present invention includes forming a radical unit having a four-layered structure obtained by stacking a first electrode, a first separator, a second electrode, and a second separator one by one, and stacking at least one radical unit one by one to form a unit stack part.
