BATTERY CELL INCLUDING SHORT-CIRCUIT INDUCING MEMBER AND SAFETY EVALUATION METHOD USING SAME

The present invention relates to: a battery cell including a punched portion formed through a separator, and a short-circuit inducing member disposed on the punched portion; and a method for evaluating the safety of a battery under internal short-circuit conditions by using the battery cell. Using the battery cell of the present invention, the safety of a battery under internal short-circuit conditions can be easily evaluated without physical deformation or reassembly of the battery cell.
