Abstract

An object of the invention is to provide a separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery, which has good adhesion to electrodes and is also capable of ensuring sufficient ion permeability even after attachment to an electrode. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery of the invention includes a porous substrate and an adhesive porous layer formed on at least one side of the porous substrate and containing a polyvinylidene-fluoride-based resin. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery is characterized in that the polyvinylidene-fluoride-based resin has a weight average molecular weight of 600,000 to 3,000,000.

Claims (18)

1. A separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery, comprising a porous substrate consisting of a polyolefin microporous membrane, and an adhesive porous layer that is formed on at least one side of the porous substrate and contains a polyvinylidene-fluoride-based resin,

the separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery being characterized in that the polyvinylidene-fluoride-based resin has a weight average molecular weight of 600,000 or more and 3,000,000 or less,

wherein the value obtained by subtracting the Gurley value of the porous substrate from the Gurley value of the separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery with the adhesive porous layer formed thereon is 0 to 300 sec/100 cc.

2. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , characterized in that the polyvinylidene-fluoride-based resin has a weight average molecular weight of 800,000 or more and 1,500,000 or less.

3. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 2 , characterized in that the separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery has a Gurley value of 50 sec/100 cc or more and 800 sec/100 cc or less.

4. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , characterized in that the separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery has a Gurley value of 50 sec/100 cc or more and 800 sec/100 cc or less.

5. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , characterized in that the separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery has a porosity of 30% or more and 60% or less.

6. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , characterized in that the weight of the adhesive porous layer is 0.5 g/m 2 or more and 1.5 g/m 2 or less.

7. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , characterized in that the adhesive porous layer is formed on both front and back sides of the porous substrate.

8. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 7 , characterized in that

the total weight of the adhesive porous layers formed on both sides of the porous substrate is 1.0 g/m 2 or more and 3.0 g/m 2 or less, and

the difference between the weight of the adhesive porous layer on one side and the weight of the adhesive porous layer on the other side is 0 to 20% of the total weight on both sides.

9. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , characterized in that the porous substrate is a polyolefin microporous membrane containing polyethylene.

10. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 9 , wherein the polyolefin microporous membrane has a polyethylene content of 95 wt % or more.

11. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , characterized in that the porous substrate is a polyolefin microporous membrane containing polyethylene and polypropylene.

12. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 11 , characterized in that the polyolefin microporous membrane includes at least two layers with one of the two layers containing polyethylene and the other layer containing polypropylene.

13. A nonaqueous secondary battery comprising the separator according to claim 1 .

14. The separator for a nonaqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the polyvinylidene-fluoride-based resin has a weight average molecular weight of 800,000 or more and 3,000,000 or less.
