METHOD FOR PRODUCING CURRENT COLLECTOR FOR NON-AQUEOUS ELECTROLYTE SECONDARY BATTERY, METHOD FOR PRODUCING ELECTRODE FOR NON-AQUEOUS ELECTROLYTE SECONDARY BATTERY, AND NON-AQUEOUS ELECTROLYTE SECONDARY BATTERY

摘要

An objective is to improve the mechanical strength and the durability of a current collector for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery and to allow an active material layer to be efficiently carried on the surface of the current collector with high adhesion. This objective is achieved with the use of a pair of processing means being disposed such that the surfaces thereof are in press contact with each other to form a press nip for passing a sheet material therethrough and having a plurality of recesses formed on the surface of at least one of the processing means, by passing a metallic foil for current collector through the press nip between the processing means to perform compression, thereby to form a plurality of projections on at least one surface of the metallic foil for current collector by partial plastic deformation associated with the compression.
