Abstract

A method for manufacturing an electrode plate including a current collector and an active material layer includes preparing, forming, and pressing. In the preparing, a mixture is prepared by kneading an active material. In the forming, the active material layer is formed on the current collector by applying the mixture to the current collector. In the pressing, the active material layer is pressed so that active material layer has a predetermined thickness. The mixture applied to the current collector has a weight per unit area based on a specific surface area of the active material used in the mixture and a tapped density of the active material used in the mixture.

Claims (13)

1 . A method for manufacturing an electrode plate including a current collector and an active material layer, the method comprising:

preparing a mixture by kneading an active material;

forming the active material layer on the current collector by applying the mixture to the current collector; and

pressing the active material layer so that active material layer has a predetermined thickness,

wherein the mixture applied to the current collector has a weight per unit area based on a specific surface area of the active material used in the mixture and a tapped density of the active material used in the mixture.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein, when the electrode plate is manufactured with the mixture using the active material of which the specific surface area is a first area, the weight per unit area of the mixture is less than that when the electrode plate is manufactured with a mixture using the active material where the specific surface area is a second area that is smaller than the first area.

3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein, when the electrode plate is manufactured with the mixture using the active material of which the specific surface area is the first area and the tapped density is a first density, the weight per unit area of the mixture is less than that when the electrode plate is manufactured with a mixture using the active material where the specific surface area is the first area and the tapped density is a second density that is greater than the first density.

4 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein, when the electrode plate is manufactured with the mixture using the active material of which the specific surface area is the second area and the tapped density is a first density, the weight per unit area of the mixture is less than that when the electrode plate is manufactured with a mixture using the active material where the specific surface area is the second area and the tapped density is a second density that is greater than the first density.

5 . A method for manufacturing a battery including an electrode plate that includes a current collector and an active material layer, the method comprising:

preparing a mixture by kneading an active material;

forming the active material layer on the current collector by applying the mixture to the current collector; and

pressing the active material layer so that active material layer has a predetermined thickness,

wherein the mixture applied to the current collector has a weight per unit area based on a specific surface area of the active material used in the mixture and a tapped density of the active material used in the mixture.
