Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A production method according to the present invention is a method comprising impregnating a laminated porous film, which is formed by laminating a heat-resistant layer containing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and an inorganic filler on one side or both sides of a substrate material porous film predominantly composed of polyolefin, with a solution containing a compound having the ability of cross-linking PVA, and then removing a solvent. The present invention can produce a separator having excellent heat shape retainability even when PVA is used for a binder resin for forming a heat-resistant layer.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method for producing a separator, the method comprising impregnating a laminated porous film, which is formed by laminating a heat-resistant layer containing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and an inorganic filler on one side or both sides of a substrate material porous film predominantly composed of polyolefin, with a solution containing a compound having the ability of cross-linking PVA, and then removing a solvent. 2 . The method for producing a separator according to claim 1 , wherein the compound having the ability of cross-linking PVA is boric acid and/or an organometallic compound having the ability of cross-linking PVA. 3 . The method for producing a separator according to claim 2 , wherein the organometallic compound having the ability of cross-linking PVA is an organic titanium compound. 4 . The method for producing a separator according to claim 3 , wherein the organic titanium compound is titanium lactate. 5 . The method for producing a separator according to claim 1 , wherein the solvent in the solution containing a compound having the ability of cross-linking PVA is a solvent predominantly composed of water. 6 . The method for producing a separator according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic filler is alumina. 7 . The method for producing a separator according to claim 1 , wherein a proportion of polyvinyl alcohol in the heat-resistant layer is 1 part by weight or more and 5 parts by weight or less with respect to 100 parts by weight of the inorganic filler. 8 . A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery including the separator obtained by the method according to claim 1 .
