なお、層(1)および層(3)の形成等は、既述の「集電体の成形方法(1)」と同様にすればよい。
本発明の電池用集電体は、上記層(1)~層(3)を有すればよく、強度や耐熱性向上の観点から更なる層を有していてもよく、導電性を損なわない範囲であれば何層形成されていてもよい。
本発明における接着性樹脂は、層(1)~層(3)と接着するものが好ましく、公知の接着性を有する高分子を用いることが可能である。層(1)~層(3)との高い接着性を示す点から、エラストマー、変性ポリオレフィン、エチレン-酢酸ビニル共重合体が好ましく、エラストマー、エチレン-酢酸ビニル共重合体がより好ましい。これらの樹脂は単独で使用される他に、2種類以上を混合して使用することも出来る。エラストマー、変性ポリオレフィン、エチレン-酢酸ビニル共重合体が好ましく、エラストマー、エチレン-酢酸ビニル共重合体としては、前述の高分子材料2で挙げられた具体例が同様に挙げられ、接着性樹脂層においても同様に好ましく適用できる。
本発明の電池用集電体は、全体の厚みは1~100μmであることが好ましい。100μmよりも厚いと電池の出力密度等の性能が低下したり、また、集電体の厚み方向の抵抗が大きくなり、電池の内部抵抗増加につながったりする場合がある。逆に1μmより薄いと取り扱い性が難しい場合がある。集電体の強度および柔軟性のバランスに優れるため、全体の厚みは1.5~100μmがより好ましく、2~70μmがさらに好ましく、2~50μmが特に好ましい。
本発明の電池用集電体は、厚み方向の単位面積あたりの電気抵抗は、10Ω・cm2以下であることが好ましい。抵抗値が10Ω・cm2を超えると、電池に使用した場合に、電池の内部抵抗が上昇し、出力密度が低下する場合がある。
本発明の電池用集電体の異物付着防止や物性維持のため、集電体の表面に剥離可能な保護フィルムを付けることも可能である。剥離可能なフィルムについては特に限定されず、公知のものが利用可能であり、例えばPETフィルムやポリテトラフルオロエチレン、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレンなどをあげることができる。
本発明の電池用集電体は、電極との密着性や電気的コンタクトを向上するため、表面処理をすることが好ましい。表面処理については特に限定されず、例えばコロナ処理、プラズマ処理、ブラスト処理などをあげることができる。
正極および負極の構成については、特に限定されず、公知の正極および負極が適用可能である。電極には、電極が正極であれば正極活物質、電極が負極であれば負極活物質が含まれる。正極活物質および負極活物質は、電池の種類に応じて適宜選択すればよい。例えば、電池がリチウム二次電池である場合には、正極活物質としては、LiCoO2などのLi・Co系複合酸化物、LiNiO2などのLi・Ni系複合酸化物、スピネルLiMn2O4などのLi・Mn系複合酸化物、LiFeO2などのLi・Fe系複合酸化物などが挙げられる。この他、LiFePO4などの遷移金属とリチウムのリン酸化合物や硫酸化合物;V2O5、MnO2、TiS2、MoS2、MoO3などの遷移金属酸化物や硫化物;PbO2、AgO、NiOOHなどが挙げられる。場合によっては、2種以上の正極活物質が併用されてもよい。
