Abstract

To provide a secondary battery that can be prevented from exploding or catching fire due to the occurrence of a short circuit. The secondary battery ( 10 ) of the present invention includes an electric cell assembly that is, at least, partially enclosed by an extensible sheet ( 11 ) having a surface resistivity of 10 −2 Ω/sq to 10 10 Ω/sq, and is housed together with an electrolyte in a container ( 5 ), and in which positive electrodes ( 1 ) and negative electrodes ( 2 ) are stacked on each other or wound with a separator ( 3 ) interposed therebetween.

Claims (4)

1. A secondary battery comprising an electric cell assembly that is, at least, partially enclosed by an extensible sheet having a surface resistivity of 10 −2 Ω/sq to 10 10 Ω/sq, and housed together with an electrolyte in a container, and in which positive electrodes and negative electrodes are stacked on each other or wound with a separator interposed therebetween, wherein the extensible sheet is positioned between the electric cell assembly and an interior wall surface of the container.

2. A secondary battery comprising an electric cell assembly that is, at least, partially enclosed by an extensible sheet having a surface resistivity of 10 −2 Ω/sq to 10 10 Ω/sq, and housed together with an electrolyte in a container, and in which positive electrodes and negative electrodes are stacked on each other or wound with a separator interposed therebetween, wherein the extensible sheet is disposed so as to cover an exterior of the container.

3. The secondary batter according to claim 1 , wherein the coefficient of elongation of the extensible sheet is 10% or greater.

4. The secondary battery according to claim 2 wherein the coefficient of elongation of the extensible sheet is 10% or greater.
