The pole piece is used as an important structure of the lithium ion battery and consists of a current collector and conductive slurry coated on the current collector. In general, the conductive paste is applied to the middle of the current collector in the width direction to form a coating area of the pole piece, and the part of the current collector which is not applied with the conductive paste forms a blank area of the pole piece. In the actual production process of the lithium ion battery, the conductive slurry is coated on a current collector, and after drying, the conductive slurry is fixed on the current collector in a rolling way and is tightly combined with the current collector.
