  • Patent number: 8920974
    Abstract: Disclosed is a cathode material comprising a mixture of an oxide powder (a) defined herein and an oxide powder (b) selected from the group consisting of an oxide powder (b1) defined herein and an oxide powder (b2) defined herein and a combination thereof wherein a mix ratio of the two oxide powders (oxide powder (a):oxide powder (b)) is 50:50 to 90:10. The cathode material uses a combination of an oxide powder (a) and 50% or less of an oxide powder (b) which can exert high capacity, high cycle stability, superior storage stability and high-temperature stability, thus advantageously exhibiting high energy density and realizing high capacity batteries.

  • Patent number: 8870978
    Abstract: Provided is a method for fabrication of a jelly-roll type electrode assembly having a cathode/separation membrane/anode laminate structure, including: (a) coating both sides of a porous substrate with organic/inorganic composite layers, each of which includes inorganic particles and an organic polymer as a binder, so as to fabricate a composite membrane; and (b) inserting one end of a sheet laminate comprising a cathode sheet and an anode sheet as well as the composite membrane into a mandrel, winding the sheet laminate around the mandrel, and then, removing the mandrel, wherein the organic/inorganic composite layer includes microfine pores capable of moderating a variation in volume during charge/discharge of a secondary battery and an interfacial friction coefficient between the composite membrane and the mandrel is not more than 0.28.
