$^{19}F$ NMR experiments were carried out to observe the change of the characteristics of the PVdF binder which is an auxiliary material of the lithium ion battery. PVdF has various crystalline or amorphous phases by thermal treatment. A mixture of cathode and auxiliary materials including PVdF was coated on aluminum foil as an electron collector and then subjected to thermal treatment at various temperatures. The overlapped $^{19}F$ NMR signals obtained from the various phases were separately convoluted into the respective phases, and it was found that there was a relative ratio change of these phases. In addition, the crystal and amorphous phase of PVdF was changed during the vacuum drying, which is the last step of the actual electrode manufacturing. It was observed that the relative amount of amorphous phase, which may affect the flexibility of the electrode or the wettability of the electrolyte, abruptly changes after a certain temperature.
