Abstract
According to a positive electrode for a lithium ion secondary battery comprising a current collector and a mixture layer containing a transition metal-containing complex oxide as a positive electrode active material formed on the current collector, wherein the mixture layer has surface roughness of 0.1 μm or more and 0.5 μm or less in terms of a Ra value and the mixture layer has a surface treated layer treated with a coupling agent on the surface, it is possible to obtain a positive electrode which is excellent in suppression of moisture absorption. By using the positive electrode, it is possible to obtain a lithium ion secondary battery which is excellent in storage characteristics and causes less battery swelling since the amount of a gas generated upon charging and discharging decreases.
