A coating composition including a solvent, inorganic particles, a dispersant, and a binder, wherein the binder includes a binder B and a binder A, both the binder B and the binder A include a VDF unit and a HFP unit, binder B includes 8 to 50 wt % of the HFP-derived unit, and binder A includes 5 wt % or more of the HFP-derived unit under a condition that a proportion of the HFP-derived unit in the binder A is 80% or less of a proportion of the HFP-derived unit in the binder B, the binder B has a total number average molecular weight of 200,000 to 2,000,000 Da, and the binder A has a total number average molecular weight corresponding to 70% or less of that of the binder B, and a weight ratio of the binder A:the binder B in the coating composition is 0.1 to 10:1. The coating composition is suitable for use in coating at least one surface of a porous substrate having a plurality of pores.
