Abstract

This invention provides a lithium secondary battery that comprises a positive electrode comprising a positive electrode active material layer and a negative electrode comprising a negative electrode active material layer. The positive electrode active material layer and the negative electrode active material layer are placed to face each other. The negative electrode active material layer has an area A comprising a non-positive-electrode-facing portion that does not face the positive electrode active material layer. The area A comprises a negative electrode active material, a hot-melt binder and a temperature-sensitive thickener. The hot-melt binder has a melting point and the temperature-sensitive thickener has a gelation temperature both in a range of 45° C. to 100° C.
