A binder for a secondary battery includes a copolymer having a first repeating unit, a second repeating unit, and a third repeating unit. A ratio of a number of the first repeating unit (A) and a sum of a number of the second repeating unit and a number of the third repeating unit (B) is 90:10 to 52:48. A ratio of the number of the second repeating unit and the number of the third repeating unit is 67:33 to 1:99. A weight average molecular weight of the copolymer is 225,000 to 2,000,000.
