Problems solved by technology

Therefore, Si particles cannot withstand the volume change upon repeated charge / discharge, and are cracked and broken in the crystal, the electrical connection between adjacent particles is reduced, and the final lifetime characteristics are deteriorated
[0008] Therefore, research has been conducted to use silicon oxide (SiO x ) to improve lifetime characteristics and reduce volume expansion, but since silicon oxide forms an irreversible phase when intercalating lithium, initial efficiency decreases and lifetime characteristics deteriorate as lithium is consumed

[0126] Experimental Example: Performance Evaluation of Lithium Secondary Batteries

[0127] Secondary batteries including the negative electrodes manufactured in Examples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 were manufactured by a conventional method and then charged / discharged. In this case, charging was performed by applying a current at a current density at a rate of 0.1C up to a voltage of 4.2V, and discharging was performed at the same current density up to a voltage of 2.5V. This charge / discharge condition was applied to the first cycle, and the initial efficiency (%) was measured in the first cycle, and the capacity retention (%) was measured during 49 cycles under the 0.5C rate condition.

[0128] The initial efficiency (%) and capacity retention (%) were calculated as follows, and their values ​​are shown in Table 1 below.

[0129] Initial efficiency (%)=(discharge capacity in the first cycle / charge capacity in the first cycle)×100

[0130] Capacity retention (%)...
