Abstract
Provided are a separator for a nonaqueous cell that has air permeability and is small in thickness while maintaining strength properties; and a nonaqueous cell having this separator. The separator includes a fiber sheet in which a polyvinyl alcohol fiber is incorporated in a proportion of 30% or more by mass (based on the fiber sheet). The fiber has a fiber breaking temperature in heated water of lower than 100° C. and higher than 85° C.
Claims15
A separator, comprising a fiber sheet comprising a plurality of polyvinyl alcohol fibers A in a proportion of 30% or more by mass, based on a mass of the fiber sheet, the fibers A having a fiber breaking temperature in heated water of lower than 100° C. and higher than 85° C.,
- wherein the plural fibers A are bonded to one another on their surfaces at crossing points while maintaining a fiber structure, and
- wherein the fiber breaking temperature is measured by connecting a weight giving a load of 0.9 gf/500 dtex to a polyvinyl alcohol fiber A having a test length of 5 cm, hanging the weighted fiber in 500 cc of 20° C. water, then increasing the water temperature at a rate of 1° C./minute until the weighted fiber breaks, wherein the fiber breaking temperature is the temperature of the water when the weighted fiber breaks.
