The present invention relates to a secondary battery separator, and a manufacturing method therefor. The secondary battery separator according to the present invention comprises an organic/inorganic composite porous layer for improving thermal resistance and physical strength, and since the organic/inorganic composite porous layer uses polymer particles as a binder, the secondary battery separator, compared with a separator using a solvent-type binder resin using organic solvents, exhibits excellent permeability.

A first separator (130) covers a first surface of a cathode electrode (110). The first separator (130) has a melting point of a first temperature. A second separator (140) covers a second surface of the cathode electrode (110). The second separator (140) has a melting point of a second temperature higher than the first temperature. An adhesive layer (132) is formed by melting a portion of the first separator (130). The adhesive layer (132) pastes the first separator (130) and the second separator (140) to each other.

The present application relates to a polymer, a method for manufacturing the same, and an electrolyte membrane including the same.
