Separator for Electrochemical Device and Method for Manufacturing the Same

A separator for an electrochemical device is provided. The separator comprises a porous substrate having a plurality of pores and a porous coating layer positioned on at least one surface of the porous substrate, the porous coating layer including a plurality of inorganic particles and a binder polymer positioned on a whole or a part of the surface of the inorganic particles to connect the inorganic particles with one another and fix the inorganic particles, wherein the binder polymer comprises a first binder polymer and a second binder polymer. The first binder polymer is poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoroproyplene) (PVdF-HFP), and the second binder polymer is poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-tetrafluoroethylene) (PVdF-TFE). The first binder polymer has an electrolyte uptake of 80-165%, and the second binder polymer has an electrolyte uptake of 20-40%. An electrochemical device including the separator is also disclosed.
