An electrochemical device and an electronic device containing the electrochemical device. With a first accommodation portion disposed in the electrochemical device, a specific accommodation space is provided for a bend portion of a first tab, thereby avoiding a need to additionally increasing space for accommodating the bend portion, where the space is originally intended for accommodating the electrode assembly. This effectively saves the space occupied by the tab in the packaging shell, reduces the size of the electrochemical device, and improves an energy density of the electrochemical device. The electronic device also achieves a high energy density.

An electrochemical device of the present invention includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a non-aqueous electrolyte, and a separator. The separator includes a first porous layer composed mainly of a thermoplastic resin and a second porous layer composed mainly of insulating particles with a heat-resistant temperature of 150? C. or higher. The first porous layer is disposed to face the negative electrode.

A power storage device includes a case provided with a bottomed rectangular cylindrical case body constituting a second primary wall portion and four side wall portions and a rectangular lid constituting a first primary wall portion. The first primary wall portion and the second primary wall portion are to elastically compress an electrode laminated portion of an electrode body. There are provided a plurality of bent ridge portions extending toward an upper side at an axial inner side, being bent, and further extending toward an axial outer side to press the electrode laminated portion so that an impregnated electrolytic solution is restricted from moving to lower portions of both end portions of the electrode laminated portion.

A power storage device is provided with a parallelepiped box-like case and an electrode body housed in the case. The case includes a bottomed rectangular cylindrical case body having a rectangular opening and forming a second primary wall portion and four side wall portions, and a rectangular lid forming a first primary wall portion, in which a lid peripheral edge portion is joined to an opening peripheral edge portion of the opening of the case body over an entire circumference. The first primary wall portion and the second primary wall portion of the case elastically compress an electrode laminated portion of the electrode body in an electrode body thickness direction.

Improvements in the structural components and physical characteristics of lithium battery articles are provided. Standard lithium ion batteries, for example, are prone to certain phenomena related to short circuiting and have experienced high temperature occurrences and ultimate firing as a result. Structural concerns with battery components have been found to contribute to such problems. Improvements provided herein include the utilization of thin metallized current collectors (aluminum and/or copper, as examples), high shrinkage rate materials, materials that become nonconductive upon exposure to high temperatures, and combinations thereof. Such improvements accord the ability to withstand certain imperfections (dendrites, unexpected electrical surges, etc.) within the target lithium battery through provision of ostensibly an internal fuse within the subject lithium batteries themselves that prevents undesirable high temperature results from short circuits. Battery articles and methods of use thereof including such improvements are also encompassed within this disclosure.

The present application relates to an electrochemical device comprising a separator and an electrolyte, wherein the separator comprises a first porous layer and a second porous layer; and the electrolyte comprises at least one compound containing 2 to 3 cyano groups.

The present disclosure relates to a battery cell to alleviate the problem of impurities falling into an electrode assembly. Wherein, the battery cell includes: an electrode assembly including a tab and a cell body, wherein the tab is connected to the cell body; a cover plate assembly including an electrode terminal and a cover plate, wherein the electrode terminal is disposed on the cover plate; a connecting sheet connected between the tab and the electrode terminal, the connecting sheet includes a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion, wherein the first connecting portion is connected to the tab, and the second connecting portion is connected to the electrode terminal; an insulating pallet disposed between the cell body and the connecting sheet; and an insulation member disposed between the insulating pallet and the second connecting portion.

A battery module including a battery cell stack in which a plurality of battery cells is stacked, a container filled with a liquid and containing the battery cell stack, and a pressurizer for pressurizing the liquid that is filled in the container.
