METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SECONDARY BATTERY

A secondary battery includes: an electrode assembly; a case accommodating the electrode assembly, the case having a bottom surface and long and short sidewalls that extend upwardly from the bottom surface; a cap plate coupled to an upper portion of the case and sealing the case; and an insulation member attached to an outer surface of the case. The insulation member includes a first layer in contact with the outer surface of the case and made of a heat-resistant material, a third layer exposed to the outside and made of a stretchable material, and a second layer between the first and third layers and made of an insulating material.
