Abstract

Provided are an electrode for solid-state batteries, a method of preparing the electrode, a solid-state battery including the electrode, and a bonding film used for the method of preparing the electrode. The electrode for solid-state batteries include a bonding layer interposed between an electrode layer and a current collecting member and bound to the electrode layer, where the bonding layer includes a first binder which is inactive to the solid electrolyte, a second binder which has a stronger binding ability to the current collecting member than a bonding strength of the first binder to the current collecting member; and a bonding layer conductive material.

Claims (17)

1. An electrode for solid-state batteries, the electrode comprising:

a current collecting member; an electrode layer bound on the current collecting member; and a bonding layer interposed between the electrode layer and the current collecting member, and bound to the electrode layer, wherein the electrode layer comprises: a solid electrolyte; an electrode layer binder which is inactive to the solid electrolyte; and an electrode active material, wherein the bonding layer comprises: a first binder which is inactive to the solid electrolyte; a second binder which has a stronger bonding strength to the current collecting member than a bonding strength of the first binder to the current collecting member; where the first binder and the second binder are intermixed where both the first binder and the second binder contact the current collecting member; and a bonding layer conductive material, wherein the first binder of the bonding layer binds with the electrode layer; wherein the first binder is present in a range from about 3 wt % to about 30 wt %, and the second binder is present in a range from about 2 wt % to about 20 wt % with respect to a total weight of the bonding layer.

2. The electrode for solid-state batteries of claim 1 , wherein the electrode layer binder comprises the first binder.
