Abstract

A separator with a heat resistant insulation layer includes a porous substrate, and a heat resistant insulation layer formed on one surface or both surfaces of the porous substrate and containing at least one kind of inorganic particles and at least one kind of a binder, wherein a content mass ratio of the inorganic particles to the binder in the heat resistant insulation layer is in a range from 99:1 to 85:15, a BET specific surface area of the inorganic particles is in a range from 3 m 2 /g to 50 m 2 /g, and a ratio of the moisture content per mass of the binder to the BET specific surface area of the inorganic particles is greater than 0.0001 and smaller than 2.

Claims (15)

1. A separator with a heat resistant insulation layer, comprising:

a porous substrate; and

a heat resistant insulation layer formed on one surface or both surfaces of the porous substrate and containing inorganic particles and a binder,

wherein a content mass ratio of the inorganic particles to the binder in the heat resistant insulation layer is in a range from 99:1 to 85:15,

a BET specific surface area of the inorganic particles is in a range from 3 m 2 /g to 50 m 2 /g, and

a ratio of a moisture content per mass of the binder to the BET specific surface area of the inorganic particles is greater than 0.0001 and smaller than 2.

2. The separator with a heat resistant insulation layer according to claim 1 , wherein the binder is a water-soluble polymer.

3. The separator with a heat resistant insulation layer according to claim 2 , wherein the water-soluble polymer is at least one of carboxymethylcellulose and salt thereof.

4. The separator with a heat resistant insulation layer according to claim 3 , wherein the ratio of the moisture content per mass of the binder to the BET specific surface area of the inorganic particles is in the range from 0.75 to 1.9.

5. The separator with a heat resistant insulation layer according to claim 4 , wherein the ratio of the moisture content per mass of the binder to the BET specific surface area of the inorganic particles is in the range from 1 to 1.8.

6. The separator with a heat resistant insulation layer according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic particles are at least one material selected from the group consisting of an oxide, a hydroxide and a nitride of silicon, aluminum, zirconium or titanium, and a complex thereof.

7. The separator with a heat resistant insulation layer according to claim 1 , wherein a weight of the heat resistant insulation layer is in a range from 5 g/m 2 to 15 g/m 2 .

8. An electric device using the separator with a heat resistant insulation layer according to claim 1 .

9. The separator with a heat resistant insulation layer according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the moisture content per mass of the binder to the BET specific surface area of the inorganic particles is in the range from 0.75 to 1.9.

10. The separator with a heat resistant insulation layer according to claim 9 , wherein the ratio of the moisture content per mass of the binder to the BET specific surface area of the inorganic particles is in the range from 1 to 1.8.
