Abstract

The present application relates to a separator and a battery comprising the same. A separator according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application includes: a porous substrate; and a first bonding layer pattern provided on at least one surface of the porous substrate, in which each pattern constituting the first bonding layer pattern is a pattern including a second bonding layer pattern having an aperture ratio of 5% or more and 40% or less.

Claims (19)

1. A separator comprising:

a porous substrate; and

a first bonding layer pattern provided on at least one surface of the porous substrate,

wherein each pattern constituting the first bonding layer pattern consists of a second bonding layer pattern having an aperture ratio of 5% or more and 40% or less,

wherein the second bonding layer pattern is formed from a bonding composition comprising a binder solution, a solvent, and a surfactant, and

wherein the bonding composition comprises 49 wt % to 70 wt % of a binder solution, 29 wt % to 50 wt % of a solvent, and 0.1 wt % to 10 wt % of a surfactant, based on a total weight of the bonding composition.

2. The separator of claim 1 , wherein the first bonding layer pattern has a total aperture ratio of 20% or more and less than 80%.

3. The separator of claim 1 , wherein a form of each pattern constituting the second bonding layer pattern comprises at least one of a circle, an ellipse, and a polygon.

4. The separator of claim 1 , wherein each pattern constituting the second bonding layer pattern has a diameter of 10 μm to 100 μm.

5. The separator of claim 1 , wherein a gap between patterns constituting the first bonding layer pattern is 100 μm to 1,000 μm.

6. The separator of claim 1 , wherein the separator has a resistance of 0 ohm and more and 0.65 ohm or less.

7. The separator of claim 1 , wherein

the bonding composition has a viscosity of more than 0 cP and less than 30 cP.

8. The separator of claim 1 , wherein the second bonding layer pattern is formed by using a gravure printing method.

9. A battery comprising:

a separator, said separator comprising:

a porous substrate; and

a first bonding layer pattern provided on at least one surface of the porous substrate,

wherein each pattern constituting the first bonding layer pattern consists of a second bonding layer pattern having an aperture ratio of 5% or more and 40% or less.
