Abstract
[Challenge] To provide high-quality batteries. [Solution] The positive electrode plate 100 constituting the electrode body 20 of the battery 1 is formed by forming a positive electrode composite material layer 102 on the surface of a positive electrode current collector foil 101. The positive electrode current collector foil 101 has a positive electrode main body portion 110 and a positive electrode tab 120. The positive electrode tab 120 is provided protruding from a positive electrode specific end portion 111 of the positive electrode main body portion 110. The positive electrode tab 120 on the positive electrode current collector foil 101 is the part connected to the positive electrode current collector member 4. The positive electrode main body portion 110 has a forming region 115 on its surface where the positive electrode composite material layer 102 is formed, spaced apart from the positive electrode specific end portion 111. As a result, the positive electrode main body portion 110 has a non-forming region 116 on its surface where the positive electrode composite material layer 102 is not formed, along the positive electrode specific end portion 111. The width of the non-forming region 116 is 2 mm or less. [Selection Diagram] Figure 3
