Abstract: An anode for a secondary battery and a jelly-roll type electrode assembly including the anode. The anode includes an anode current collector that satisfies a creep rate condition represented by Formula 1 within a certain range. When the anode is applied to the jelly-roll type electrode assembly, deformation and/or expansion of electrode assembly can be controlled, even if it contains a silicon-containing anode active material because the stress generated from the exterior is significantly low. It is possible to ensure excellent safety because the stress accumulated in the anode current collector is greatly reduced, which lowers the risk of an internal disconnection of the electrode assembly.
