A slurry composition includes a negative electrode active material, a particulate binder, a water soluble polymer, and water. The particulate binder includes a first particulate binder and a second particulate binder. The first particulate binder includes a copolymer (A) including an aliphatic conjugated diene monomer unit and an aromatic vinyl monomer unit, has a degree of swelling in electrolysis solution of 110% to 200% by mass, has a glass transition temperature of −30° C. to 60° C., and has a gel content of 70% to 98% by mass. The second particulate binder includes a copolymer (B) including an aliphatic conjugated diene monomer unit and an aromatic vinyl monomer unit, has a degree of swelling in electrolysis solution of 250% to 600% by mass, and has a gel content of 70% to 98% by mass.
