  • Publication number: 20210257688
    Abstract: An electrode assembly, in which positive electrodes, separators, and negative electrodes are repeatedly stacked, and a positive electrode tab, through which the positive electrodes are connected to each other, and a negative electrode tab, through which the negative electrodes are connected to each other, are provided, includes a heat transfer layer made of a material having thermal conductivity greater than that of the separator and stacked between the positive electrode and the separator or between the negative electrode and the separator to disperse heat generated at a relatively high temperature point to a relatively low temperature point.
