A conductive material pre-dispersed slurry for a secondary battery electrode includes: a conductive material; a dispersant for dispersing the conductive material; and a solvent mixed with the conductive material and the dispersant. The dispersant includes a cellulose-based compound and a vinyl-based or acrylic compound, and the cellulose-based compound and the vinyl-based or acrylic compound in the dispersant have a weight ratio of about 25:1 to 1:25.

A composition of aqueous slurry capable of exerting uniform coating on a hydrophobic separator for a secondary battery is disclosed. Unlike other aqueous polymers, a polyvinyl alcohol-based polymer can be physically and chemically bound to a surface of a hydrophobic separator made of polyolefins such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and the like. Therefore, when the aqueous slurry including the polyvinyl alcohol-based polymer is fabricated and a hydrophobic separator is coated with the aqueous slurry, the hydrophobic separator may be smoothly coated with the aqueous slurry.
