Abstract

A slurry composition for coating a secondary battery separator, a separator prepared using the same, and a secondary battery including the separator, wherein the slurry composition includes a phenolic compound including two or more aromatic rings, inorganic particles, a binder, and a solvent.

Claims (24)

1. A slurry composition for coating a secondary battery separator, the slurry composition comprising:

a phenolic compound including two or more aromatic rings;

inorganic particles;

a binder; and

a solvent; and

wherein the phenolic compound including two or more aromatic rings is present in an amount of 1 part to 15 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the binder.

2. The slurry composition of claim 1 , wherein the phenolic compound including two or more aromatic rings comprises at least one structure selected from the group consisting of a catechol structure and a gallol structure, in at least one of the aromatic rings.

3. The slurry composition of claim 1 , wherein the phenolic compound including two or more aromatic rings is one or more selected from the group consisting of bicalin, luteolin, taxifolin, myristin, quercetin, rutin, catechin, epigallocatechin gallate, butein, piceatannol and tannic acid.

4. The slurry composition of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic particles comprise first inorganic particles and second inorganic particles, said first and second inorganic particles having different specific surface areas (BET).

5. The slurry composition of claim 4 , wherein the first inorganic particles have a specific surface area (BET) of less than 10 m 2 /g and the second inorganic particles have a specific surface area (BET) of 10 m 2 /g to 30 m 2 /g.

6. The slurry composition of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic particles have a D 50 of 0.1 μm to 10 μm.

7. The slurry composition of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic particles have a D 90 of 30 μm or less.

8. The slurry composition of claim 1 , wherein the binder is present in an amount of 10 parts to 50 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the inorganic particles.

9. The slurry composition of claim 1 , wherein the average particle diameter (D 50 ) of all particles in the slurry composition measured after dispersing the slurry composition for 3 hours at 300 rpm is not more than 2 times the average particle diameter (D 50 ) of the inorganic particles.

10. The slurry composition of claim 1 , wherein the particle settling velocity of the slurry composition measured in a state in which centrifugal force is applied to the slurry composition at a rotational speed of 200 rpm is 3 μm/s or less.

11. A secondary battery separator comprising:

a substrate; and

a coating layer on a surface of the substrate, wherein the coating layer is formed from the slurry composition of claim 1 .

12. The secondary battery separator of claim 11 , wherein the separator has a peel force between the substrate and the coating layer of 180 gf/15 mm or greater.

13. A secondary battery comprising:

a positive electrode;

a negative electrode;

the separator according to claim 11 disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode; and

an electrolyte.
