An electrode assembly includes a first electrode plate having a first electrode active material layer and a first electrode uncoated portion, a second electrode plate having a second electrode active material layer and a second electrode uncoated portion, and a separator between the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate, and a case accommodating the electrode assembly, where a ceramic layer having a smaller thickness than the first electrode active material layer is on the first electrode uncoated portion.

Electrode assembly and secondary battery using the same

A secondary battery includes an electrode assembly; a case accommodating the electrode assembly; a cap plate sealing the case; an injection opening in the cap plate; and an exhaustion opening in the cap plate and being spaced from the injection opening.

Secondary battery

A secondary battery and an electric vehicle or hybrid electric vehicle, the secondary battery including a case; an electrode terminal coupled to an electrode assembly in the case; a nut fastened with the electrode terminal, the nut having a thread on an inner circumferential surface thereof; a cap plate hermetically sealing the case, the electrode terminal extending through the cap plate; and a seal gasket between the electrode terminal and the cap plate, the seal gasket being compressed by the nut, wherein the electrode terminal includes a flange part below a bottom surface of the cap plate, an insertion part passing through a through-hole of the cap plate, and a fastening part having a thread recess engaged with the thread of the nut, and wherein the nut is rotatably fastened with the fastening part of the electrode terminal, such that a front end of the thread contacts a back end of the thread recess when viewed from a rotation direction of the nut.

Secondary battery having electrode terminal fastened with nut

A secondary battery including an electrode assembly, a can accommodating the electrode assembly, a cap plate coupled to the can, an electrolyte injection unit including an injection hole penetrating the cap plate and an injection ring protruding from the injection hole, and a stopper to seal the electrolyte injection unit.
