Electrode for non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery and non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery
The present disclosure provides a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery having a stable open-circuit voltage. An electrode for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to one embodiment includes a belt-like current collector, a mixture layer formed on each surface of the current collector, and a lead bonded to an exposed portion of the current collector where the surfaces of the current collector are exposed, the lead extending from one end of the current collector, the one end and another end constituting both ends of the current collector in the width direction. In an electrode for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to one embodiment, a mixture layer is formed on at least one surface of a current collector in the width direction of the current collector and adjacent to an exposed portion on one end side.

a belt-like current collector;
a mixture layer formed on each surface of the current collector; and
a lead bonded to an exposed portion of the current collector where the surfaces of the current collector are exposed, the lead extending from one end of the current collector in a width direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction in which the belt-like current collector is elongated, the one end and another end constituting both ends of the current collector in the width direction,
wherein the mixture layer on at least one surface of the current collector is formed in a region between the exposed portion and the one end of the current collector, and
wherein the mixture layer is formed between the current collector and the lead in an end portion on the one end side on a first surface of the current collector to which the lead is bonded.
2. The electrode for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein
the mixture layer is formed in an end portion on the one end side on a second surface of the current collector to which the lead is not bonded, the mixture layer overlapping the lead in a thickness direction of the current collector.
