The present invention provides an electrode for a lithium secondary battery capable of achieving high power output characteristics when applied to a lithium secondary battery. The present invention relates to an electrode for a lithium secondary battery having an electrode composite material layer comprising an active material and a binder, wherein the binder {circle over (1)} contains a hydrophilic binder consisting of a cellulose derivative and an electrolyte-philic binder containing polyether structure, {circle over (2)} contains a block-type hydrophilic-electrolytephilic binder consisting of a cellulose derivative having grafted electrolyte-philic side chain consisting of polyether structure, or {circle over (3)} has dispersed soluble dispersion that is soluble in non-aqueous electrolyte. Thus, the present invention realizes construction of an electrode composite material layer in which a portion of high lithium ion conductivity is locally formed in a part of binder covering the surface of the active material so that, even when large current is discharged or the battery is operated at low temperature, lithium ions are easy to be conducted between the active material and non-aqueous electrolyte, and cell reaction can proceed smoothly and power output characteristics can be thereby improved.
