The aim of the invention is to provide an electrochemical cell that can be produced as simply as possible and has a long service life. This is achieved in that the electrochemical cell comprises a first contact element that connects a first cell terminal to a first connection conductor and that is fixed to a cover element of the electrochemical cell by means of a first potting element in a first connection region, said first potting element being made of a first polymer material that comprises or is made of a first resin material, and/or the electrochemical cell comprises a second contact element that connects a second cell terminal to a second connection conductor and that is fixed to the cover element by means of a second potting element in a second connection region, said second potting element being made of a second polymer material that comprises or is made of a second resin material.

An adhesive film for a metal terminal being interposed between a metal terminal electrically connected to an electrode of a power storage device element, and a power storage device external member that seals the power storage device element. The adhesive film is configured from a laminate provided with: a first polyolefin layer disposed on the metal terminal side; a base material; and a second polyolefin layer disposed on the power storage device external member side. Under the following measurement conditions, the restoration rate measured when an indenter is pressed in a vertical direction with respect to a cross section in a thickness direction of the first polyolefin layer is 46.0% or greater. Restoration rate measurement conditions are a load of 10 mN, a load application speed of 1 mN/10 seconds, retention time of 10 seconds, a load releasing speed of 1 mN/10 seconds, and measurement temperature of 25° C.
