Abstract

A positive electrode in a lithium secondary battery includes an insulating tape that covers a welded part between a positive electrode tab and a positive electrode current collector-exposed surface. The insulating tape has a multilayer structure including an organic material layer, a composite material layer containing an organic material and an inorganic material, and an adhesive layer. The inorganic material in the composite material layer accounts for 20% or more of the weight of the composite material layer.
