ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY FOR ELECTRIC STORAGE DEVICE AND ELECTRIC STORAGE DEVICE

An object is to provide an electrode assembly for an electric storage device, such as a nonaqueous electrolyte cell, and an electric storage device that are capable of preventing increase of a short-circuit current at the time of occurrence of a short-circuit within a cell and have high safety. In order to achieve the object, provided is an electrode assembly for an electric storage device including a positive electrode, a negative electrode and a separator disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, in which at least one of the positive electrode and the negative electrode includes a current collector, an active material layer formed on at least one face of the current collector, and an undercoat layer formed between the current collector and the active material layer and including an organic binder that evaporates and decomposes when heated to a predetermined temperature or more.
