Abstract: An electrode is provided with a conductive intermediate layer that is arranged between a core material and a mixture layer. The mixture layer contains an active material and a first binder; and the intermediate layer contains a conductive material and a second binder. The conductive material has a particle size distribution which has a first peak that is within the particle diameter range from 0.005 μm to 0.07 μm and a second peak that is within the particle diameter range from 0.5 μm to 10 μm. The content of the particles that constitute the first peak is 1% by mass to 40% by mass of the mass of the conductive material. The second binder is mainly composed of a thermoplastic resin that has a melting point of 100° C. to 200° C., and has a composition that is different from the composition of the first binder.

Abstract: An electrode according to one embodiment of the present disclosure comprises: a core material; and an electrode combined material that is layered onto surfaces of the core material. The electrode combined material comprises an active substance and PTFE. In an image illustrating a composition distribution obtained upon measuring a surface of the electrode combined material using energy dispersion-type X-ray analysis, the standard deviation of the area ratio of PTFE in 30 adjacent sections having a size of 150 μm×133 μm is 6% or less. When the electrode combined material is divided into three equal parts in the thickness direction to create, from the core material side, a first region, a second region, and a third region, the content (a) of PTFE in the first region, the content (b) of PTFE in the second region, and the content (c) of PTFE in the third region satisfy (c−a)/(a+b+c)≤±10%.

Abstract: The present invention provides an electrode which is capable of reducing the interface resistance, while ensuring the strength of a core material by suppressing the amount of biting of an active material into the core material. An electrode according to one embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a core material, an electrode mixture that is superposed on the surface of the core material, and a conductive bonding layer that is formed between the core material and the electrode mixture: the electrode mixture comprises an active material and a fibrous binder; the active material bites into the core material; the maximum bite depth is 20% or less of the thickness of the core material; and the ratio of the density of the active material in the electrode mixture to the true density of the active material is 70% or more.
