Abstract

A lithium ion secondary battery including: an electrode group including a belt-like positive electrode and a belt-like negative electrode that are wound with a separator interposed therebetween; and a can with a bottom for accommodating the electrode group, wherein the positive electrode has a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode mixture layer carried on the positive electrode current collector, the negative electrode has a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode mixture layer carried on the negative electrode current collector, and a porous heat-resistant layer is partially provided between the separator and at least one of the positive electrode mixture layer and the negative electrode mixture layer. Since a porous heat-resistant layer is thus placed, a high performance lithium ion secondary battery capable of efficiently preventing internal short circuit due to overheating while preventing decrease in battery characteristics can be provided.
