  • Publication number: 20240162450
    Abstract: The present application relates to a current collector, an electrode plate and a preparation method thereof, an electrode assembly, and a secondary battery. Through holes running through a current collecting body are provided in at least one corner region, so that the electrode assembly formed by winding electrode plates provided with the current collectors may feature the through holes in at least one layer of electrode plate in a bent portion. In this case, during cyclic charging, lithium ions on a convex side and a concave side of the electrode plate may communicate through the through holes, thereby ensuring that intercalated lithium concentrations on two sides of the electrode plate are balanced, reducing the risk of lithium precipitation between the negative electrode plate and the positive electrode plate in the bent portion, and prolonging the service life of the secondary battery.
