    摘要: A slot die for manufacturing a rechargeable battery electrode includes a first block with a chamber to accommodate an active material slurry, a second block facing and attached to the first block, a shim between the first and second blocks and including facing end portions, and a slot between the first and second blocks, and between the facing end portions, the slot including a first side defined by the first block, and a second side defined by the second block and facing the first side. Each of the end portions of the shim includes a width adjuster protruding to a second reference point from a first reference point in a width direction by a first adjusting width, extending to a third reference point from the second reference point at a first angle with respect to a discharging direction, and having a first adjusting length in the discharging direction.

    摘要: A negative electrode active material for a rechargeable lithium battery and a rechargeable lithium battery including the same are provided. The negative electrode includes a current collector and a negative electrode active material layer on the current collector. The negative electrode active material layer includes a first region in contact with the current collector and including a first negative electrode active material, and a second region on the first region and including a second negative electrode active material. Each of the first and second negative electrode active materials has an average particle diameter (D50) of about 9 μm to about 22 μm, morphologies that are different from each other, a porosity of the second region is higher than that of the first region, and a porosity ratio of the second region to the first region is from about 110% to about 190%.
