Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention provides a chromium-containing steel sheet for a current collector of a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery which has excellent corrosion resistance in a battery environment and, when used as a current collector of a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, which enables the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery to have excellent cycle characteristics.A chromium-containing steel sheet for a current collector of a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery has a chemical composition containing 10% by mass or more of Cr. The chromium-containing steel sheet has an irregular structure including recesses and protrusions at a surface thereof. The average height of the protrusions is 20 nm or more and 100 nm or less, and the average spacing between the protrusions is 20 nm or more and 300 nm or less.

The invention claimed is: 1. A chromium-containing steel sheet for a current collector of a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, the chromium-containing steel sheet comprising a chemical composition containing 10% by mass or more of Cr, wherein: the chromium-containing steel sheet has an irregular structure including recesses and protrusions at a surface thereof; and an average height of the protrusions is 20 nm or more and 100 nm or less, and an average spacing between the protrusions is 20 nm or more and 300 nm or less. 2. A method for manufacturing the chromium-containing steel sheet for a current collector of a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 comprising: preparing a raw material chromium-containing steel sheet; then, removing an oxide film on a surface of the raw material chromium-containing steel sheet; then, subjecting the raw material chromium-containing steel sheet from which the oxide film has been removed to an etching treatment in an active region of the raw material chromium-containing steel sheet; and then, subjecting the raw material chromium-containing steel sheet which has been subjected to the etching treatment to an immersion treatment in an oxidizing solution, or to an electrolysis treatment in an passive region of the raw material chromium-containing steel sheet.
