The present disclosure provides a lithium manganate positive electrode active material, comprising a lithium manganate matrix and a cladding layer, where the cladding layer comprises an organic bonding material, one or more A-type salts, and one or more B-type salts. The lithium manganate positive electrode active material of the present disclosure significantly reduces the content of transition metal manganese ions within a battery through combined action of the organic bonding material, the A-type salts, and the B-type salts, thereby slowing down the decomposition and consumption of the SEI film (solid electrolyte interphase) by transition metal manganese, and improving the capacity retention rate and impedance performance of the battery.

A secondary battery includes an electrode assembly including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a first separator disposed on one side of the surface of the negative electrode and having a thickness T1, and a second separator disposed on the other side of the surface of the negative electrode and having a thickness T2. The thickness T2 of the second separator is larger than the thickness T1 of the first separator. The first separator includes a first porous film having a porosity P1, and the second separator includes a second porous film having a porosity P2. At least one of the first separator and the second separator includes a heat resistant layer. The positive electrode, the first separator, the negative electrode and the second separator are wound together such that the first separator is arranged on the outer side and the second separator is arranged on the inner side.

[Problem] Upon application or film formation of a particulate matter to/on an object, the particulate matter moving with a speed is heated in a time duration from a suction port for particulate matter to the object, thereby softening or melting at least some of the particulate matter when the particulate matter is applied to the object.

[Solution] A particulate matter is heated by means of induction heating or laser in a time duration from a suction port for particulate matter to an object, so that at least some of the particulate matter is softened or melted at a relatively low temperature on the object in synergy with the collision energy of the particulate matter with the object, thereby enabling the application or film formation of the particulate matter.

A negative electrode includes at least a negative electrode composite material layer. The negative electrode composite material layer contains at least composite particles and a binder. Each composite particle includes a negative electrode active material particle and a film. The film covers at least part of a surface of the negative electrode active material particle. The film contains a layered silicate mineral. The binder includes nanofibers.

The present invention pertains to a flexible electrode, to a process for the manufacture of said flexible electrode and to uses of said flexible electrode in electrochemical devices, in particular in secondary batteries.

Disclosed are an all-solid battery and a method of manufacturing the same. The all-solid battery as disclosed herein may include current collectors having the same size for a cathode and an anode, the elongation areas of the cathode and the anode may be controlled due to the ductility of the current collectors during a pressing process. Thus, areas of the anode and the cathode may become different from each other upon the pressing, thus preventing a short-circuit fault from being formed at the edge portion thereof in the pressing process.

A separator includes a substrate, a first layer on the substrate, the first layer including LiFePO.sub.4 (LFP) particles, and a second layer on the substrate, the second layer including organic particles having a melting point in a range of about 100° C. to about 130° C.
