A cap assembly for a secondary battery includes: a cap plate; a current interrupt device (CID); a middle plate; and an insulator. The CID includes: a vent plate under the cap plate and including a vent portion protruding downward; and a sub-plate under the vent plate and connected to the vent portion. The middle plate is between the vent plate and the sub-plate and is electrically connected to the vent plate via the sub-plate. The insulator is between the vent plate and the middle plate, and the insulator includes a crosslinked polymer.
