Abstract
A binder composition has good tensile strength, and can improve the cycle life of a rechargeable battery by maintaining the conduction path of an electrode even during expansion or shrinkage of the active material. The binder composition is environmentally friendly, and can be used in existing production lines as-is. An electrode and a rechargeable battery use the binder composition. The binder composition for a rechargeable battery includes a main binder including a poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) having at least one of a sulfonic acid group (—SO3H) or a sulfonate group (—SO3−M+) in the polymer main chain.
