Problems solved by technology

[0010] However, fibrous carbons such as carbon nanotubes are entangled with each other to form coils, so it is difficult to disassemble the fibrous carbons and mix them uniformly with the positive electrode active material in the mixing method described in Patent Document 1, and it is difficult to fully utilize the carbon nanotubes. tube potential
[0011] In addition, as disclosed in Patent Document 2, the method of mixing while mechanically applying a strong shear force using a centrifugal ball mill cuts the carbon nanofibers, so there is a problem that it will interfere with the characteristics of the carbon nanofibers. Long conductive paths created by high aspect ratio
[0012] In addition, in the production method of the positive electrode composite material described in Patent Document 3, it is difficult to uniformly mix the fibrous carbon and the positive electrode active material when preparing the slurry for spray drying, so as the conductive aid in this production method, agent, it is difficult to use fibrous carbon instead of toner

Embodiment 1

[0103] 0.375 parts by weight of a nonionic dispersant (Emulgen A-90 manufactured by Kao Corporation) having a phenyl group as a functional group was added and dissolved in 100 parts by weight of water. 0.375 parts by weight of carbon nanotubes having a fiber diameter of 20 nm, a fiber length of 5 μm, and an aspect ratio of 250 were added to the solution, and ultrasonically dispersed so that the average aggregate particle size of the carbon nanotubes was 3 μm. While irradiating the carbon nanotube dispersion liquid with ultrasonic waves, 0.15 parts by weight of an average aggregated particle size of 2 μm (primary particle size of 25 nm) and a DBP absorption capacity of 155 cm was added. 3 / 100g of carbon black, irradiated with ultrasonic waves for 1 minute, and then added 7.5 parts by weight of lithium manganate with an average aggregated particle size of 1.2 μm, and further dispersed by ultrasonic waves for 2 minutes. The obtained dispersion was spray-dried at a hot air temper...

Embodiment 2

[0105] 1.5 g of dispersant-containing particles spray-dried in the same manner as in Example 1 were heated in an electric furnace at 200° C. for 10 hours to decompose and vaporize the dispersant and remove it. The obtained composite material for positive electrode is shown in figure 2 , and its physical properties are shown in Table 1. The obtained composite material for positive electrode was confirmed by the method shown in (9) above, and as a result, it was found that it was a composite particle formed by holding the positive electrode active material particles by carbon nanotubes. More specifically, as figure 2 As shown, it has a form in which carbon nanotubes exist in the gaps between the positive electrode active material particles, and the carbon nanotubes enclose the positive electrode active material particles in a mesh shape.

Embodiment 3

[0107] Except that the non-ionic dispersant with phenyl functional groups is used in an amount of 0.15 parts by weight, and the carbon nanotubes are used in an amount of 0.15 parts by weight, the same method as in Example 1 is used to prepare a composite material for positive electrodes. The obtained composite material for positive electrode is shown in image 3 Among them, the physical properties are shown in Table 1, and the internal resistance at the time of battery production is shown in Table 2. The obtained composite material for positive electrode was confirmed by the method shown in (9) above, and as a result, it was found that it was a composite particle formed by holding the positive electrode active material particles by carbon nanotubes. More specifically, as image 3 As shown, it has a form in which carbon nanotubes exist in the gaps between the positive electrode active material particles, and the carbon nanotubes enclose the positive electrode active material pa...
