The invention provides a reactive polymer-supporting porous film for use as a battery separator which comprises a porous substrate film and a partially crosslinked reactive polymer supported on the porous substrate film, the partially crosslinked reactive polymer being obtained by the reaction of a crosslinkable polymer having at least one reactive group selected from the group consisting of 3-oxetanyl group and epoxy group in the molecule with a monocarboxylic acid.
The invention further provides a method of manufacturing a battery which comprises layering electrodes on the reactive polymer-supporting porous film to obtain an electrode/reactive polymer-supporting porous film layered body; placing the electrode/reactive polymer-supporting porous film layered body in a battery container; introducing an electrolytic solution containing a cationic polymerization catalyst into the battery container so that at least a portion of the reactive polymer is swollen or dissolved in the electrolytic solution at least in the vicinity of the interface of the porous film and the electrodes and cationically polymerized so that the electrodes are bonded to the porous film.
本发明提供了一种用作电池隔膜的反应性聚合物支撑多孔膜,它包括多孔基底膜和支撑在多孔基底膜上的部分交联反应性聚合物,所述部分交联反应性聚合物是由分子中至少有一个反应基团选自3-氧杂环丁酰基团和环氧基团的可交联聚合物与单
羧酸反应得到的。
本发明进一步提供了一种制造电池的方法,该方法包括在反应性聚合物支撑多孔膜上分层放置电极,以获得电极/反应性聚合物支撑多孔膜分层体;将电极/反应性聚合物支撑多孔膜分层体置于电池容器中;将含有阳离子聚合催化剂的电解溶液引入电池容器,使至少一部分活性聚合物至少在多孔膜和电极界面附近溶胀或溶解在电解溶液中,并发生阳离子聚合,从而使电极与多孔膜粘合。
