Abstract

A current collector for a secondary battery ( 1 ) of the present invention includes a resin layer ( 2 ) having electrical conductivity, and an ion barrier layer ( 3 ) provided on the surface of the resin layer ( 2 ). The ion barrier layer ( 3 ) contains ion trapping particles ( 6 ) in which metal compounds ( 5 ) are provided on the surfaces of metal containing particles ( 4 ). The ion trapping particles ( 6 ) are continuously provided from an interface ( 7 ) between the resin layer ( 2 ) and the ion barrier layer ( 3 ) toward a surface ( 3 a ) of the ion barrier layer ( 3 ). Thus, the ion barrier layer ( 3 ) prevents from the entry of ions, so that the ion adsorption in the current collector ( 1 ) can be decreased.
