Problems solved by technology

Even when silicon is added to the mixture of silicon oxide and carbonaceous material, the volume expansion percentage of silicon oxide cannot be maintained, and at least 20wt% of carbonaceous material must be added in the end to suppress the battery capacity at 1000mAh / g
The method of obtaining mixed solids by simultaneous generation of silicon and silicon oxide vapors suffers from operational problems, i.e. the low silicon vapor pressure requires high temperature processing in excess of 2000 °C

Embodiment

[0143] Examples are given below in order to further illustrate the present invention, but they should not be construed as limiting the present invention. In the examples, all percentages (%) are by weight, and the particle size is the median diameter D determined by a particle size distribution instrument using laser diffraction 50 . In the table, silicon oxide, polysilicon, and silicon particles are abbreviated as SiO, p-Si, and Si particles, respectively. The jet mill AFG-100 purchased from Hosokawa Micron Group and the classifier TC-15 purchased from Nisshin Engineering Co., Ltd were used.

[0144] Preparation of silicon oxide particles I-1

[0145] To equimolar amount of silica particles (BET specific surface area = 200m 2 / g) and chemical grade metal silicon particles (BET specific surface area = 4m 2 / g) was heat-treated under a hot vacuum atmosphere of 1350°C and 0.1 Torr to prepare silicon oxide gas, which was deposited on a stainless steel substrate maintained at 1000°C...

example 10-14， Embodiment 1 and comparative example 2

[0191] The mixture of coated silica particles and silicon particles prepared above was diluted with N-methylpyrrolidone. A polyimide resin (solid 18.1%) as a binder was added thereto to form a slurry. The slurry was coated on a 12 μm thick copper foil using a doctor blade with a 50 μm gap, vacuum dried at 200° C. for 2 hours, and pressed at 60° C. by a roller press to form a negative electrode molding. Finally, cut out 2cm from the molded part 2 And used as the negative electrode. The composition of the solid component is shown in Table 4.

[0192] Battery performance measurement

[0193] To confirm the effectiveness of the negative electrode material, the charge / discharge capacity and volume expansion of the material were measured as follows. Six lithium ion secondary batteries were prepared using the molded article as the negative electrode and the lithium foil as the counter electrode. The electrolyte solution is a non-aqueous electrolyte solution of lithium bis(trifluorometh...

Embodiment 10

[0198] The comparison between Example 10 and Reference Example 1 shows that the negative electrode material within the scope of the present invention has a lower volume change multiple after charging, although the capacity and discharge efficiency are comparable. Compared with Comparative Example 2 which does not use silicon particles as the active material, the negative electrode materials of Examples 10-14 have improved charge / discharge efficiency in the first cycle, and improved charge / discharge capacity is observed. The volume change multiple remains basically unchanged, but the charge / discharge capacity is improved.

[0199] Determination of cycle performance

[0200] Using the negative electrode materials of Example 10, Reference Example 1, and Comparative Example 2, negative electrode moldings were prepared through the same procedure as described above. In order to evaluate the cycle performance of the negative electrode molding, a coin-type lithium ion secondary battery ...

Abstract

A negative electrode material comprising an active material and 1-20 wt% of a polyimide resin binder is suitable for use in non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries. The active material comprises silicon oxide particles and 1-50 wt% of silicon particles. The negative electrode exhibits improved cycle performance while maintaining the high battery capacity and low volume expansion of silicon oxide. The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery has a high initial efficiency and maintains improved performance and efficiency over repeated charge / discharge cycles by virtue of mitigated volumetric changes during charge / discharge cycles.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries, typically lithium ion secondary batteries. Specifically, the present invention relates to a negative electrode material used in such a battery, and more particularly, to a negative electrode material containing silicon oxide and silicon as active materials, and a negative electrode prepared therefrom. Background technique [0002] With the recent rapid development of portable electronic equipment and communication devices, there are urgent requirements for cost reduction, size reduction, and weight reduction for non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries with high energy density. Many methods for increasing the capacity of such non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries are known in the art. For example, JP 3008228 and JP3242751 disclose negative electrode materials including oxides of B, Ti, V, Mn, Co, Fe, Ni, Cr, Nb, and Mo and their composite oxides. Obtained by que...
