2. Description of the Related Art As a battery used as a power source for a small electronic device, a nonaqueous electrolyte battery such as a lithium ion secondary battery having a small size and a large capacity is used. Lithium ion secondary batteries generally have a positive electrode in which a positive electrode active material is coated on a strip-shaped positive electrode current collector made of aluminum foil, and a negative electrode in which a negative electrode active material is coated on a strip-shaped negative electrode current collector made of copper foil. The battery element is produced by winding a number of turns of a battery element with a separator interposed therebetween, storing the battery element in a battery can, injecting an electrolytic solution, and sealing the battery. Various methods have been adopted for applying the electrode active material to the belt-shaped current collector, but a slurry in which the electrode active material is dispersed in a liquid is applied to a continuously running belt-shaped member from a coating head. In this case, an active material layer having a uniform thickness is formed.

FIG. 2 is a view for explaining a coating method using a conventional coating apparatus. FIG. 2 (A) shows an overall view including a drying apparatus, and FIG. 2 (B) shows a coating method. FIG. 2C is a cross-sectional view of a coating portion of the apparatus, and FIG. 2C is an enlarged view of a portion A in FIG. 2B. In the coating apparatus 1, the delivery roll 2
The slurry is supplied from the coating head 5 on the backup roll 4 to the belt-like member 3 which is sent out from and travels, and a coating film 6 having a desired thickness is formed on the surface of the belt-like member 3. The slurry is heated by at least one of radiant heat, the volatile solvent in the slurry is volatilized, dried, and taken up by the take-up roll 8. Even when the slurry is supplied from the coating head 5 to the belt-shaped member 3 under a certain condition by using such a coating apparatus, the both ends of the coating film 6 have the surface tension of the base material. The raised portion 9 is formed due to the difference, and the raised portions at both ends are not eliminated even after the coating film is dried. It is also conceivable to irradiate the air flow before drying on the formed bulge to deform the bulge, or to mold the bulge at both ends with a blade or the like. However, it was difficult to make both end portions uniform in thickness.

[0004] When winding a belt-shaped body having raised portions at both ends, the thickness of the coating film at both ends is large, so that the winding diameter at both ends is large and the end of the band is cut off. In some cases, winding could not be completed. Also, since the raised portions of both ends of the coating film cannot be used for products, it is necessary to cut both ends in the middle of the process, and in order to manufacture the coating film in anticipation of cutting both ends in advance In addition, there is also a problem that the material is wasted.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS According to the present invention, when a coating film is formed on a strip-shaped member by a coating head, the surface of the coated portion of the strip-shaped member opposed to both ends of the coating head in the width direction of the strip-shaped member. It has been found that the swelling due to surface tension at both ends can be reduced by increasing the wet spreadability of the slurry. The wet spreadability of the slurry on the belt-shaped member depends on the surface tension of the slurry, the surface tension of the belt-shaped member, the difference between the surface tension of the slurry and the surface tension of the belt-shaped member, and the like. The larger the surface tension of the substrate, the greater the wet spreadability. It should be noted that the wet spreadability can be evaluated based on the extent of the spread of the slurry to the periphery when the slurry is dropped on the belt-shaped base material. It means that the area that spreads to the surroundings when the work is performed is large, and the opposite is the case that the wettability is small.

The wettability of the surface of the substrate is adjusted by applying a substance which increases the surface tension of the substrate, or by increasing the surface roughness to a value greater than that at the center, ie, by roughening the surface. Can be done by Examples of the method of forming the roughened portion include a method of forming irregularities by a method of irradiating a predetermined region of the surface of the base material under reduced pressure with oxygen plasma, argon plasma, or irradiation of reactive atoms. it can. In addition, when a strip-shaped substrate is produced by rolling, by using a rolling roll having desired irregularities on the surface, irregularities can be formed in a predetermined region on the surface of the substrate. Also, a method of injecting abrasive grains such as sand blast, a method of roughening the surface by contacting the surface with a roll having irregularities, a grinding roll made of abrasive grains or the like before the belt-shaped member is supplied to the coating head. Etc.

In addition, the wet-spreading property is determined by applying a liquid used as a dispersant used when a slurry is prepared by dispersing a solid substance to a surface to be coated of a belt-shaped member without forming a difference in surface tension. On the other hand, you may apply. In the case where the slurry is applied to the dispersant-coated surface before the dispersant is dried, the spreadability of the already-applied dispersant on the coated surface can be increased, so that the wet-spreadability can be improved. Immediately before the dispersant is supplied to the coating head, the dispersant can be applied by a method using a coating roll dipped with the dispersant or by spraying. In the case of spraying, it is preferable that a thin film is formed without forming droplets on the coating portion. Further, in the method of applying a dispersant, since there is no possibility that foreign matter other than the substance used for forming the slurry is mixed into the coating film, a coating film having stable quality can be formed.

According to the coating method of the present invention, the unevenness of the thickness can be prevented without causing a raised portion of the coating film on the running belt-like member at the widthwise end of the belt-like member. When a battery active material coating film is formed, the battery can be manufactured without cutting it when winding it up at the time of manufacturing the electrode, or without discarding the thick end at the time of manufacturing the battery electrode. can do.
