Attached) was prepared (Example 1). All production was performed by a dry process, and the influence of moisture intrusion from the outside of the battery due to poor sealing of the battery case was eliminated. [0070] Next, after the obtained lithium secondary battery (Example 1) was fully charged, an overcharge test was continued in which constant current charging (the maximum voltage of the constant current power supply 200A was set to 18V) was continued. .
