Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, a sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery and an all-solid-state secondary battery, and a method for manufacturing a sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery and an all-solid-state secondary battery. Background Art

[0002] In an all-solid-state secondary battery, all of the negative electrode, electrolyte, and positive electrode are composed of solids, and it is possible to significantly improve the safety or reliability, which is an issue, of a battery using an organic electrolyte. In addition, the lifespan can also be extended. Furthermore, the all-solid-state secondary battery can be configured in a structure in which the electrodes and the electrolyte are directly arranged and connected in series. Therefore, compared with a secondary battery using an organic electrolyte, it can achieve a higher energy density and is expected to be applied to electric vehicles or large-scale storage batteries, etc.

[0003] In such an all-solid-state secondary battery, as materials for forming constituent layers (such as a solid electrolyte layer, a negative electrode active material layer, a positive electrode active material layer, etc.), an inorganic solid electrolyte, an active material, etc. can be cited. This inorganic solid electrolyte, particularly oxide-based inorganic solid electrolytes and sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolytes, have been expected in recent years as electrolyte materials having a high ionic conductivity close to that of an organic electrolyte.

[0004] As a material for forming a constituent layer of an all-solid-state secondary battery (constituent layer forming material), a material containing the above inorganic solid electrolyte, etc. has been proposed. For example, Patent Document 1 describes a slurry for a negative electrode of a sulfide-based solid battery, which contains at least a fluorine-based copolymer containing a vinylidene fluoride monomer unit, a negative electrode active material, and a solvent or a dispersion medium, and is characterized in that when the dry volume is set to 100% by volume, the content ratio of the fluorine-based copolymer is 1.4 to 2.2% by volume.

[0007] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2014-078400 Summary of the Invention

[0008] Technical Problem to be Solved by the Invention

[0009] When the constituent layer of an all-solid-state secondary battery is formed by solid particle materials (inorganic solid electrolytes, active materials, conductive aids, etc.), in the constituent layer forming material, from the viewpoint of improving the battery performance (such as cycle characteristics) of the all-solid-state secondary battery with the constituent layer thus formed, it is required to stably maintain the excellent dispersibility characteristics (dispersion stability) of the solid particle material (also referred to as solid particles) just after preparation, and maintain the high dispersion characteristics of fluidity and the characteristics (handling properties) of good surface properties with appropriate viscosity. Dispersion stability and handling properties are considered to be one of the important factors of the correlation of inorganic solid electrolytes, etc. with adhesives. However, the solid electrolyte composition described in patent document 1 does not describe this viewpoint.

[0010] However, in recent years, the research and development of high performance and practical application of electric vehicles has progressed rapidly, and the requirements for battery performance (e.g., cycle characteristics) required for all-solid-state secondary batteries have become increasingly high. In order to meet such requirements in recent years, it is necessary to develop a constituent layer forming material that has both dispersion stability and handling properties (fluidity, surface properties of the coating surface) at a higher level.

[0011] The present invention aims to provide a composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte with excellent dispersion stability and handling properties. In addition, the present invention aims to provide a sheet material for an all-solid-state secondary battery and an all-solid-state secondary battery using the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, and a method for manufacturing the sheet material for an all-solid-state secondary battery and the all-solid-state secondary battery.

In addition, by using the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte as a constituent layer forming material, it is found that a sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries with a flat coating surface and good surface properties and a low-resistance constituent layer, as well as an all-solid-state secondary battery with excellent cycle characteristics, can be achieved.

[0058] In the present invention, the polymer refers to a polymer, but has the same meaning as the so-called high molecular compound.

[0059] [Composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte]

[0060] The composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention contains an inorganic solid electrolyte having ionic conductivity of a metal belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table, a polymer binder, and a dispersion medium. The polymer binder contained in the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte is a fluorine-based copolymer containing a vinylidene fluoride constituent and a hexafluoropropylene constituent, and contains one or two or more fluorine-based copolymers (sometimes simply referred to as copolymers) in which the content of the hexafluoropropylene constituent in the fluorine-based copolymer is 21 to 65 mol% and the tensile fracture strain is 500% or more.

[0061] The composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention only needs to contain, as the polymer binder, a polymer binder (sometimes called a fluorine-containing binder) composed of the above copolymer with respect to the inorganic solid electrolyte and the dispersion medium, and there is no particular limitation on its containing state etc. For example, in the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, the polymer binder may or may not be adsorbed on the inorganic solid electrolyte, and when adsorbed, the degree thereof may be within the range of the adsorption rate described later.

[0062] The fluorine-containing binder functions as a binder that binds solid particles such as inorganic solid electrolytes (in addition, active substances and conductive aids that can coexist) to each other (for example, inorganic solid electrolytes to each other, inorganic solid electrolytes and active substances, active substances to each other) in at least a layer formed of the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte. In addition, it also functions as a binder that binds a current collector and solid particles. In the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, the polymer binder may or may not have the function of binding solid particles to each other.

[0063] The composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention is preferably a slurry in which the inorganic solid electrolyte is dispersed in a dispersion medium. At this time, the fluorine-containing binder preferably has the function of dispersing solid particles in the dispersion medium. And when the fluorine-containing binder (in a solid state) is dispersed in the dispersion medium, within the range not impairing the effects of the present invention, a part of it may be dissolved in the dispersion medium.

[0064] The dispersion stability and processability (fluidity, surface properties) of the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention are excellent. By using the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte as a constituent layer-forming material, a sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries having a low-resistance constituent layer with a flat surface and excellent surface properties can be achieved, and an all-solid-state secondary battery having excellent cycle characteristics can be achieved.

[0065] In the method of forming an active material layer formed on a current collector from the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention, strong adhesion between the current collector and the active material layer can also be achieved, and the cycle characteristics can be further improved.

[0066] The above effects are achieved by using a fluorine-containing adhesive having a specific adsorption rate formed from a fluorine-based copolymer containing the above constituent components in a specific ratio and showing a specific tensile fracture strain, in combination with a dispersion medium and an inorganic solid electrolyte, in the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention. The detailed reason is not clear, but it is considered that the correlation between the inorganic solid electrolyte and the like in the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte and the adhesive can be improved.

[0067] That is, it is considered that a fluorine-containing adhesive formed from a fluorine-based copolymer containing a vinylidene fluoride constituent component and 21 to 65 mol% of a hexafluoropropylene constituent component and having a tensile fracture strain of 500% or more, and showing an adsorption rate of less than 60% with respect to the inorganic solid electrolyte, does not excessively adsorb to the inorganic solid electrolyte in the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, and can suppress re-aggregation or precipitation of the inorganic solid electrolyte not only after the preparation of the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte but also over time. In addition, the fluorine-based copolymer easily maintains the interaction of the inorganic solid electrolytes in the composition, and can cause the repulsive force between the fluorine atoms in the copolymer to act. As a result, a high degree of dispersion (excellent dispersion stability) immediately after preparation can be stably maintained, and an excessive increase in viscosity can also be suppressed, and good fluidity (excellent processability) can be expressed.

[0068] When a constituent layer is formed using the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention that exhibits such excellent dispersion characteristics, re-aggregates or precipitates of the inorganic solid electrolyte can be suppressed even during the film formation of the constituent layer (for example, when coating the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte and during drying). Thereby, deviation in the contact state between the inorganic solid electrolytes in the constituent layer can be suppressed. In particular, when the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte contains an active material or the like, it is considered that specific particles such as the active material are less likely to be unevenly distributed in the constituent layer (the solid particles are uniformly arranged in the constituent layer). As a result, an increase in the interfacial resistance between the solid particles and the resistance of the constituent layer can be suppressed. In addition, when the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte is formed into a film, especially during coating, the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte flows (levels) appropriately, and there are no surface roughnesses such as unevenness due to insufficient flow or excessive flow (the surface property of the coating surface is excellent), resulting in a constituent layer with good surface properties. Thus, it is considered that a sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery having a constituent layer with a flat surface and low resistance can be realized.

[0069] Moreover, an all-solid-state secondary battery having a constituent layer with suppressed resistance increase and a flat surface is less likely to generate overcurrent during charge and discharge, can prevent deterioration of solid particles, and the interfacial contact state with other layers adjacent to the surface of the constituent layer becomes good (high adhesion). Therefore, it is considered that even when repeatedly charged and discharged, the battery characteristics will not be significantly reduced, and an all-solid-state secondary battery with excellent cycle characteristics can be realized.

[0070] When an active material layer is formed from the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention, as described above, the constituent layer is formed while maintaining the highly (uniform) dispersed state just after preparation. Therefore, it is considered that the contact (adhesion) between the fluorine-containing binder and the surface of the current collector is not hindered by solid particles such as preferential precipitation, and the fluorine-containing binder can contact (adhere) to the surface of the current collector in a state dispersed with the solid particles. In addition, the fluorine-based copolymer precipitated during the formation of the active material can elongate without being cut in the active material layer and can maintain its molecular structure. Thereby, an electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery in which an active material layer is formed from the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention on a current collector can achieve strong adhesion between the current collector and the active material. And an all-solid-state secondary battery in which an active material layer is formed from the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention on a current collector shows strong adhesion between the current collector and the active material and can achieve further improvement in cycle characteristics.

[0071] The composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention can preferably be used as a sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries (including electrode sheets for all-solid-state secondary batteries) or a forming material for a solid electrolyte layer or an active material layer of an all-solid-state secondary battery (a layer-forming constituent material). In particular, it can preferably be used as a forming material for a negative electrode sheet or a negative electrode active material layer of an all-solid-state secondary battery containing a negative electrode active material with large expansion and contraction caused by charge and discharge, and high cycle characteristics can also be achieved in this manner.

[0072] The composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention is preferably a non-aqueous composition. In the present invention, the non-aqueous composition includes not only a form that does not contain moisture but also a form in which the water content (also referred to as the moisture content) is preferably 500 ppm or less. In the non-aqueous composition, the water content is more preferably 200 ppm or less, further preferably 100 ppm or less, and particularly preferably 50 ppm or less. If the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte is a non-aqueous composition, deterioration of the inorganic solid electrolyte can be suppressed. The water content represents the amount of water contained in the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte (the mass ratio to the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte), and specifically, it is a value obtained by filtering with a 0.02 μm membrane filter and measuring by Karl Fischer titration.

[0073] The composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention also includes the following form: in addition to containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, it also contains an active material, a conductive additive, etc. (the composition of this form is referred to as an electrode composition).

[0074] Hereinafter, the components contained in the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention and the components that can be contained will be described.

[0075] <Inorganic solid electrolyte>

[0076] The composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention contains an inorganic solid electrolyte.

[0077] In the present invention, an inorganic solid electrolyte refers to an inorganic solid electrolyte, and a solid electrolyte refers to a solid electrolyte that enables ions to move therein. Considering that it does not contain an organic substance as a main ion-conductive material, it is clearly distinguished from an organic solid electrolyte (a polymer electrolyte represented by polyethylene oxide (PEO) or the like, and an organic electrolyte salt represented by lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) or the like). Also, since the inorganic solid electrolyte is solid in a stable state, it usually does not dissociate or ionize into cations and anions. In this regard, it is clearly distinguished from inorganic electrolyte salts (LiPF6, LiBF4, lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI), LiCl, etc.) that dissociate or ionize into cations and anions in an electrolyte solution or a polymer. As long as the inorganic solid electrolyte has ion conductivity of a metal belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table, there is no particular limitation, and it usually does not have electronic conductivity. When the all-solid-state secondary battery of the present invention is a lithium-ion battery, it is preferable that the inorganic solid electrolyte has ion conductivity of lithium ions.

[0078] The above inorganic solid electrolyte can be appropriately selected from solid electrolyte materials commonly used for all-solid-state secondary batteries for use. For example, as the inorganic solid electrolyte, (i) a sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte, (ii) an oxide-based inorganic solid electrolyte, (iii) a halide-based inorganic solid electrolyte, and (iv) a hydride-based inorganic solid electrolyte can be cited. From the viewpoint of being able to form a better interface between the active material and the inorganic solid electrolyte, a sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte is preferred.

[0079] (i) Sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte

[0080] The sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte is preferably a compound that contains a sulfur atom, has ion conductivity of a metal belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table, and has electronic insulation. The sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte preferably contains at least Li, S, and P as elements and has lithium ion conductivity, but may also contain other elements in addition to Li, S, and P depending on the purpose or situation.

[0081] As the sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte, for example, a lithium ion-conductive inorganic solid electrolyte that satisfies the composition represented by the following formula (S1) can be cited.

[0082] L a1 M b1 P c1 S d1 A e1 (S1)

[0083] In the formula, L represents an element selected from Li, Na, and K, preferably Li. M represents an element selected from B, Zn, Sn, Si, Cu, Ga, Sb, Al, and Ge. A represents an element selected from I, Br, Cl, and F. a1 to e1 represent the composition ratios of the respective elements, and a1:b1:c1:d1:e1 satisfies 1 to 12:0 to 5:1:2 to 12:0 to 10. a1 is preferably 1 to 9, more preferably 1.5 to 7.5. b1 is preferably 0 to 3, more preferably 0 to 1. d1 is preferably 2.5 to 10, more preferably 3.0 to 8.5. e1 is preferably 0 to 5, more preferably 0 to 3.

[0084] As described below, the composition ratios of the respective elements can be controlled by adjusting the blending amounts of the raw material compounds when manufacturing the sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte.

[0085] The sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte can be non-crystalline (glass), can be crystallized (glass-ceramized), or can be partially crystallized. For example, a Li-P-S-based glass containing Li, P, and S or a Li-P-S-based glass ceramic containing Li, P, and S can be used.

[0086] The sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte can be manufactured by reacting at least two or more raw materials such as lithium sulfide (Li2S), phosphorus sulfide (e.g., diphosphorus pentasulfide (P2S5)), elemental phosphorus, elemental sulfur, sodium sulfide, hydrogen sulfide, lithium halide (e.g., LiI, LiBr, LiCl), and sulfides of the elements represented by the above M (e.g., SiS2, SnS, GeS2).

[0087] In the Li-P-S-based glass and the Li-P-S-based glass ceramic, the ratio of Li2S to P2S5 is preferably 60:40 to 90:10, more preferably 68:32 to 78:22 in terms of the molar ratio of Li2S:P2S5. By setting the ratio of Li2S to P2S5 within this range, the lithium ion conductivity can be improved. Specifically, the lithium ion conductivity can preferably be set to 1×10 -4 S / cm or more, more preferably set to 1×10 -3 S / cm or more. Although there is no particular upper limit set, it is actually 1×10 -1 S / cm or less.

[0088] As an example of a specific sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte, examples of the raw material combinations are shown below. For example, Li2S-P2S5, Li2S-P2S5-LiCl, Li2S-P2S5-H2S, Li2S-P2S5-H2S-LiCl, Li2S-LiI-P2S5, Li2S-LiI-Li2O-P2S5, Li2S-LiBr-P2S5, Li2S-Li2O-P2S5, Li2S-Li3PO4-P2S5, Li2S-P2S5-P2O5, Li2S-P2S5-SiS2, Li2S-P2S5-SiS2-LiCl, Li2S-P2S5-SnS, Li2S-P2S5-Al2S3, Li2S-GeS2, Li2S-GeS2-ZnS, Li2S-Ga2S3, Li2S-GeS2-Ga2S3, Li2S-GeS2-P2S5, Li2S-GeS2-Sb2S5, Li2S-GeS2-Al2S3, Li2S-SiS2, Li2S-Al2S3, Li2S-SiS2-Al2S3, Li2S-SiS2-P2S5, Li2S-SiS2-P2S5-LiI, Li2S-SiS2-LiI, Li2S-SiS2-Li4SiO4, Li2S-SiS2-Li3PO4, Li 10 GeP2S 12 etc. Among them, the mixing ratio of each raw material is not limited. As a method for synthesizing a sulfide-based inorganic solid electrolyte material using such a raw material composition, for example, an amorphization method can be cited. As the amorphization method, for example, a mechanical polishing method, a solution method, and a melt quenching method can be cited. Processing at room temperature can be performed, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process.

[0089] (ii) Oxide-based inorganic solid electrolyte

[0090] The oxide-based inorganic solid electrolyte is preferably a compound containing oxygen atoms, having ionic conductivity of a metal belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table, and having electronic insulation.

[0098] (iv) Hydride - based inorganic solid electrolyte

[0099] The hydride-based inorganic solid electrolyte is preferably a compound containing hydrogen atoms, having ionic conductivity of a metal belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table, and having electron insulating properties.

[0100] There is no particular limitation on the hydride-based inorganic solid electrolyte, and examples thereof include LiBH4, Li4(BH4)3I, 3LiBH4-LiCl, etc.

[0101] The inorganic solid electrolyte is preferably in the form of particles. At this time, the particle size (volume average particle size) of the inorganic solid electrolyte is not particularly limited, and is preferably 0.01 μm or more, more preferably 0.1 μm or more. As the upper limit, it is preferably 100 μm or less, more preferably 50 μm or less.

[0102] The measurement of the particle size of the inorganic solid electrolyte is carried out by the following steps. In a 20 mL sample bottle, a 1 mass% dispersion is prepared by diluting the inorganic solid electrolyte particles with water (heptane in the case of substances unstable to water). The diluted dispersion sample is irradiated with ultrasonic waves at 1 kHz for 10 minutes, and then immediately used in the test. Using this dispersion sample, and using a laser diffraction / scattering particle size distribution measuring device LA-920 (trade name, manufactured by HORIBA, Ltd.) and performing 50 data acquisitions at a temperature of 25 °C using a measurement quartz cell, the volume average particle size is obtained. Other detailed conditions, etc. are referred to as needed in accordance with the description in Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) Z8828:2013 "Particle Size Analysis - Dynamic Light Scattering Method". Five specimens are prepared for each level and the average value is adopted.

[0103] The inorganic solid electrolyte may contain one type or two or more types.

[0104] When forming the solid electrolyte layer, the mass (mg) of the inorganic solid electrolyte per unit area (cm 2 ) (unit area weight) of the solid electrolyte layer is not particularly limited. It can be appropriately determined according to the designed battery capacity. For example, it can be set to 1 to 100 mg / cm 2 .

[0105] Among them, when the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte contains the active material described later, regarding the unit area weight of the inorganic solid electrolyte, it is preferable that the total amount of the active material and the inorganic solid electrolyte is within the above range.

[0106] The content of the inorganic solid electrolyte in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte is not particularly limited. From the viewpoint of adhesiveness and further from the viewpoint of dispersibility, in 100% by mass of the solid components, it is preferably 50% by mass or more, more preferably 70% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 90% by mass or more. As the upper limit, from the same viewpoint, it is preferably 99.9% by mass or less, more preferably 99.5% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 99% by mass or less.

[0107] However, when the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte contains the active material described later, regarding the content of the inorganic solid electrolyte in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte, the total content of the active material and the inorganic solid electrolyte is preferably in the above range.

[0108] In the present invention, the solid components refer to the components that do not volatilize or evaporate and disappear when the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte is dried at 150 °C for 6 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere at a pressure of 1 mmHg. Typically, it refers to the components other than the dispersion medium described later.

[0109] <Polymer binder>

[0110] The composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention contains a polymer binder (also simply referred to as a binder). In the present invention, the polymer binder refers to a binder formed by including a polymer.

[0111] The polymer binder contained in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte includes one or two or more fluorine-containing binders composed of fluorine copolymers satisfying the following (1) to (3). And the polymer binder contained in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte preferably contains a polymer binder other than the fluorine-containing binder, for example, the granular polymer binder described later (preferably a granular polymer binder having an adsorption rate of 60% or more with respect to the inorganic solid electrolyte in the composition), a chain polymerization-based polymer binder (for example, a binder composed of a hydrocarbon-based polymer, a binder composed of a (meth)acrylic acid-based polymer, a polymer binder composed of an ethylene-based polymer). In addition, if the adsorption rate with respect to the inorganic solid electrolyte in the composition is considered, the polymer binder contains, in addition to the fluorine-containing binder, a polymer binder with an adsorption rate of less than 60% (low adsorption binder) and a polymer binder with an adsorption rate of 60% or more (high adsorption binder).

[0112] (Fluorine-containing binder)

[0113] First, the fluorine-containing binder contained as a polymer binder in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention will be described. The fluorine-containing binder is composed of a fluorine copolymer satisfying the following (1) to (3).

[0114] (1) As a constituent component, it contains a vinylidene fluoride constituent component and a hexafluoropropylene constituent component

[0115] (2) The content of the hexafluoropropylene constituent component in the fluorine-based copolymer is 21 to 65 mol%

[0116] (3) The tensile fracture strain is 500% or more

[0117] In the dispersion medium described below contained in the fluorine-containing adhesive in the composition, the adsorption rate with respect to the inorganic solid electrolyte is less than 60%.

[0118] The fluorine-containing adhesive is used in combination with solid particles such as an inorganic solid electrolyte in a composition containing a dispersion medium and an inorganic solid electrolyte, thereby enabling improvement of the dispersion stability and processability of the composition (slurry) containing the inorganic solid electrolyte.

[0119] In the present invention, the adsorption rate of the adhesive is a value measured using the inorganic solid electrolyte and the dispersion medium contained in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte, and is an index indicating the degree of adsorption of the adhesive in the dispersion medium to the inorganic solid electrolyte. Here, the adsorption of the adhesive to the inorganic solid electrolyte includes not only physical adsorption but also chemical adsorption (adsorption through formation of chemical bonds, adsorption through electron donation and acceptance, etc.).

[0120] When the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte contains a plurality of inorganic solid electrolytes, it becomes the adsorption rate with respect to the inorganic solid electrolyte having the same composition (type and content) as the inorganic solid electrolyte in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte. When the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte contains a plurality of dispersion media, the adsorption rate is similarly measured using a dispersion medium having the same composition (type and content) as the dispersion medium in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte. And even when using a plurality of respective adhesives such as a fluorine-containing adhesive, a granular adhesive, and an adhesive composed of a chain polymerization-based polymer, for each adhesive, the adsorption rate for a plurality of adhesives is similarly set as in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte and the like.

[0121] In the present invention, the adsorption rate of the adhesive is set as the value calculated by the method described in the examples.

[0122] The adsorption rate of the fluorine-containing binder relative to the inorganic solid electrolyte is less than 60%. If the fluorine-containing binder exhibits the above adsorption rate, over-adsorption to the inorganic solid electrolyte can be suppressed, and the dispersion stability and processability of the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte can be improved. From the viewpoint of achieving a higher level of both dispersion stability and processability, the adsorption rate is preferably 50% or less, more preferably 40% or less, further preferably 30% or less, particularly preferably 10% or less, and most preferably less than 5%. On the other hand, the lower limit of the adsorption rate is not particularly limited and can also be set to 0%. From the viewpoint of dispersion stability and processability, the lower limit of the adsorption rate is preferably small. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of improving the adhesion of the inorganic solid electrolyte, it is preferably greater than 0%, more preferably 0.1% or more, and further preferably 0.5% or more.

[0123] In the present invention, the adsorption rate relative to the inorganic solid electrolyte can be appropriately set by the properties of the polymer (fluorine-based copolymer) forming the fluorine-containing binder (for example, the content of the hexafluoropropylene constituent, the weight-average molecular weight), the type or content of the functional groups possessed by the polymer, the form of the fluorine-containing binder (the amount dissolved in the dispersion medium), and the like.

[0124] The fluorine-containing binder may be soluble (soluble binder) or may not be soluble in the dispersion medium contained in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte, but a soluble binder that is soluble in the dispersion medium is preferred. In the present invention, the binder being soluble in the dispersion medium means that the fluorine-containing binder is dissolved in the dispersion medium of the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte. For example, in the solubility measurement, the solubility is 80 mass% or more. The method for measuring the solubility is as described below.

[0125] That is, a prescribed amount of the binder to be measured is weighed in a glass bottle, 100 g of the dispersion medium contained in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte is added thereto, and the mixture is stirred at a rotation speed of 80 rpm on a mixing rotor at a temperature of 25°C for 24 hours. The transmittance of the mixed solution after stirring for 24 hours thus obtained is measured under the following conditions. This test (transmittance measurement) is performed by changing the amount of the binder dissolved (the above prescribed amount), and the upper limit concentration X (mass%) at which the transmittance becomes 99.8% is set as the solubility of the binder in the above dispersion medium.

[0131] When the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention contains an active material described below (when an active material layer is formed from the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte), the adsorption rate of the polymer binder to the active material is not particularly limited. From the viewpoints of enhancing the dispersion stability and processability of the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte and the adhesiveness of solid particles, it is preferably 90% or less, more preferably 0.1 to 50%, and further preferably 1 to 10%. In the present invention, the adsorption rate of the binder to the active material is a value measured using the active material and the dispersion medium contained in the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, and is an index showing the degree of adsorption of the binder in the dispersion medium to the active material. Here, the adsorption of the binder to the active material includes not only physical adsorption but also chemical adsorption (adsorption through the formation of chemical bonds, adsorption through electron donation and acceptance, etc.). In the present invention, it is particularly preferred that the adsorption rate of the fluorine-containing binder to the active material is within the above range.

[0132] When the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte contains a plurality of active materials, contains a plurality of dispersion media, and further uses a plurality of binders, it is the same as the adsorption rate of the above binder to the inorganic solid electrolyte. In the present invention, the adsorption rate of the binder to the active material is set to the value calculated by the method described in the examples. In the present invention, the adsorption rate to the active material can be appropriately set in the same manner as the adsorption rate to the inorganic solid electrolyte.

[0133] - Polymer forming a fluorine-containing binder -

[0134] The polymer forming a fluorine-containing binder is a fluorine-based copolymer containing a vinylidene fluoride constituent and a hexafluoropropylene constituent in a specific content and showing a tensile fracture strain of 500% or more.

[0135] In the present invention, the fluorine-based copolymer means a copolymer having a vinylidene fluoride (VDF) constituent and a hexafluoropropylene (HFP) constituent, and a copolymer further having a constituent derived from a polymerizable compound copolymerizable with VDF and HFP (sometimes also referred to as other constituents). From the viewpoint of having such other constituents, for convenience, it is called a "fluorine-based copolymer".

[0136] The polymerizable compound copolymerizable with VDF and HFP is not particularly limited. For example, a polymerizable compound having at least one carbon-carbon unsaturated bond can be cited. More specifically, a polymerizable compound containing a fluorine atom (fluorine-containing polymerizable compound), a polymerizable compound not containing a fluorine atom, a polymerizable compound having a functional group selected from the following functional group group (a), etc. can be cited.

[0137] In addition to using copolymerizable polymerizable compounds, functional groups existing in the main chain, side chain, or terminal of the fluorine-based copolymer are used as reaction points to introduce functional group group (a), other components, etc. Specifically, the fluorine-based copolymer can be modified by the ene reaction of the double bond generated by the dehydrofluorination reaction of the VDF component of the fluorine-based copolymer, the ene-thiol reaction, or the ATRP (Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization) polymerization method using a copper catalyst.

[0138] The fluorine-based copolymer has a vinylidene fluoride (VDF) constituent and a hexafluoropropylene (HFP) constituent, and includes two modes: a mode having a constituent derived from a fluorine-containing polymerizable compound and a mode not having a constituent derived from a fluorine-containing polymerizable compound. In the present invention, the mode not having a constituent derived from a fluorine-containing polymerizable compound is one of the preferred modes. When introducing the following functional group (a), the mode having a constituent derived from a copolymerizable polymerizable compound, particularly a compound having a hydrogen atom bonded to a carbon atom forming a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond in a fluorine-containing polymerizable compound (such as vinyl fluoride) is one of the preferred modes.

[0139] The VDF constituent forming the fluorine-based copolymer is a constituent derived from vinylidene fluoride, represented by -CF2-CH2-. The HFP constituent is a constituent derived from hexafluoropropylene, represented by, for example, -CF2-CF(CF3)-.

[0140] The constituent derived from a fluorine-containing polymerizable compound that can form a fluorine-based copolymer is not particularly limited as long as it is a constituent derived from a fluorine-containing polymerizable compound other than the VDF constituent and other than the HFP constituent. The fluorine-containing polymerizable compound into which this constituent is introduced is, for example, a compound having a fluorine atom directly bonded or indirectly (such as via a linking group described later) bonded to a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond. The fluorine-containing polymerizable compound is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include fluorinated vinyl compounds such as tetrafluoroethylene, trifluoroethylene, vinyl fluoride, and chlorotrifluoroethylene, and perfluoroalkyl ether compounds such as trifluoromethyl vinyl ether and pentafluoroethyl vinyl ether.

[0141] Further, the fluorine-containing polymerizable compound includes a polymerizable compound (macromonomer) having a polymer chain bonded directly or indirectly (e.g., via a linking group described later) to a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond. For example, a compound obtained by substituting at least one hydrogen atom of the above fluorine-containing polymerizable compound with a polymer chain can be mentioned. The polymer chain is not particularly limited, and ordinary polymer components can be applied. For example, a polymer chain of a (meth)acrylic polymer, a polymer chain of an ethylene polymer, a polymer chain of polysiloxane, a polyalkylene ether chain, a hydrocarbon chain, etc. can be mentioned. The (meth)acrylic polymer and ethylene polymer constituting the polymer chain can be used without particular limitation the polymers described in the chain polymerization type polymer binder described later.

[0142] An example of a fluorine-based copolymer having a constituent component derived from a polymerizable compound having a polymer chain is shown below and in the examples. In the following copolymer, the number in the lower right of each constituent component represents the content (mol%) of the constituent component in the copolymer.

[0143] [Chemical formula 1]

[0144]

[0145] The constituent component derived from a polymerizable compound not containing a fluorine atom is a constituent component capable of copolymerizing with vinylidene fluoride or hexafluoropropylene, and it is sufficient as long as it is a constituent component derived from a compound not having a fluorine atom and a functional group selected from the following functional group group (a), and there is no particular limitation. As the polymerizable compound not containing a fluorine atom into which this constituent component is introduced, polymerizable compounds usually used for chain polymerization can be mentioned. Specifically, vinyl compounds (M2), diene compounds, etc. described later can be mentioned.

[0146] The constituent component derived from a polymerizable compound not having a functional group selected from the functional group group (a) is not particularly limited as long as it is a constituent component having the above functional group. For example, vinyl compounds, diene compounds, etc. that may or may not have a fluorine atom can be mentioned. As the polymerizable compound having a functional group into which this constituent component is introduced, polymerizable compounds having the above functional group among polymerizable compounds usually used for chain polymerization can be mentioned, and the details thereof will be described later.

[0147] The VDF constituent component and other constituent components forming the fluorine-based copolymer may each have a substituent. As the substituent, there is no particular limitation as long as it is within the range not departing from the category of each constituent component. For example, a group selected from the following substituents Z, a functional group selected from the following functional group group (a) can be mentioned. Further, when the VDF constituent component or the like has a functional group selected from the functional group group (a), it is classified as the above "constituent component derived from a polymerizable compound having a functional group".

[0148] The fluorine-based copolymer used in the present invention may be any of block copolymers, alternating copolymers, and random copolymers of the above-described respective constituent components, and from the viewpoint of solubility, a random copolymer is preferred.

[0149] Such a fluorine-based copolymer can be appropriately synthesized or a commercially available product can also be used.

[0150] The fluorine-based copolymer forming the fluorine-containing adhesive may be one kind or two or more kinds.

[0151] In the fluorine-based copolymer, the content of the HFP constituent component (also referred to as the HFP amount) is 21 to 65 mol% in all the constituent components constituting the fluorine-based copolymer. Thereby, the action of the fluorine-containing adhesive composed of the fluorine-based copolymer with respect to the inorganic solid electrolyte can be weakened, and it helps to improve the dispersion stability and processability. And the above adsorption rate can be reduced to less than 60%. From the viewpoints of improving the dispersion stability and processability and further enhancing the collector adhesion, the upper limit of the HFP amount is preferably 60 mol% or less, more preferably 50 mol% or less, further preferably 45 mol% or less, and further preferably 40 mol% or less. On the other hand, from the viewpoints of improving the dispersion stability and processability and further enhancing the collector adhesion, the lower limit of the HFP amount is preferably 25 mol% or more, more preferably 30 mol% or more, and further preferably 35 mol% or more. Among them, when the weight-average molecular weight of the fluorine-based copolymer is 400,000 or more, if the lower limit of the HFP amount is 21 mol% or more, it is not necessary to set it to 25 mol% or more, 30 mol% or more, etc., and it is preferably set to 22 mol% or more. The HFP amount of the fluorine-based copolymer can be determined by measuring the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum (NMR measurement method) of the copolymer. In addition, for the fluorine-based copolymer of the composition, for example, the fluorine-based copolymer extracted with tetrahydrofuran (THF) is used for measurement. And for the fluorine-based copolymer in the sheet for all-solid-state secondary battery or the constituent layer of the all-solid-state secondary battery, for example, the constituent layer obtained by decomposing the sheet or the battery with THF and peeling off the constituent layer containing the polymer binder is used for measurement with the extracted fluorine-based copolymer.

[0152] In the fluorine-based copolymer, the content of the VDF constituent component (also referred to as the VDF amount) is not particularly limited, and from the viewpoints of improving the dispersion stability and processability and further enhancing the collector adhesion, in all the constituent components constituting the fluorine-based copolymer, it is preferably 30 to 90 mol%, more preferably 40 to 80 mol%, and further preferably 50 to 75 mol%. The VDF amount can be measured using the fluorine-based copolymer extracted in the same manner as the measurement of the HFP amount and according to the NMR measurement method.

[0153] In addition, in the fluorine-based copolymer, the ratio of the amount of VDF to the amount of HFP (amount of VDF / amount of HFP) is not particularly limited. From the viewpoints of improving dispersion stability and processability and further enhancing the adhesion to the current collector, it is preferably 0.5 to 5, more preferably 1 to 4, and still more preferably 1 to 3.

[0154] In the fluorine-based copolymer, the total content of the constituent components derived from copolymerizable polymerizable compounds is not particularly limited. For example, it can be set to 50 mol% or less.

[0155] In the copolymerizable polymerizable compounds, the contents of the constituent components derived from fluorine-containing polymerizable compounds or polymerizable compounds not containing fluorine atoms are appropriately set within the range that does not impair the excellent dispersion stability and processability, considering the adsorption rate or tensile fracture strain of the fluorine-based binder, the adhesion of solid particles, etc. The content of the constituent component derived from the fluorine-containing polymerizable compound is preferably 0 to 45 mol%, more preferably 2 to 40 mol% in all the constituent components constituting the fluorine-based copolymer. The content of the constituent component derived from the polymerizable compound not containing fluorine atoms is preferably 0 to 30 mol%, more preferably 1 to 25 mol% in all the constituent components constituting the fluorine-based copolymer.

[0156] The content of the constituent component (constituent component having a functional group) derived from the polymerizable compound having a functional group selected from the functional group group (a) can be appropriately determined in consideration of the adsorption rate or tensile fracture strain of the fluorine-based binder, the adhesion of solid particles, etc. For example, from the viewpoint of being able to maintain excellent dispersion stability and processability while making the adhesion of solid particles and the adhesion to the current collector stronger, in all the constituent components constituting the fluorine-based copolymer, it is preferably 0.01 to 10 mol%, and the lower limit value is more preferably 0.02 mol% or more, still more preferably 0.05 mol% or more, and particularly preferably 0.1 mol% or more. The upper limit value is more preferably 8 mol% or less, still more preferably 5 mol% or less, and particularly preferably 2 mol% or less.

[0157] When the fluorine-based copolymer has multiple constituent components having functional groups, the content of the constituent components having functional groups is set as the total amount. And when one constituent component has multiple or various functional groups, the content of the constituent component having functional groups generally refers to the content of that constituent component. However, in the present invention, for the sake of convenience, according to the relationship with the adsorption rate of the adhesive composed of the fluorine-based copolymer, the bonding force of solid particles, etc., it is set as the total amount of the content of each functional group. At this time, the sum of the contents of all constituent components constituting the fluorine-based copolymer exceeds 100 mol%. Among them, when multiple or various functional groups are present in one molecular chain (such as a linear molecular chain, etc.) (for example, when derived from a common raw material compound), the content of each functional group is not included in the above total amount, and the multiple or various functional groups are summarized as one functional group and included in the total amount. For example, in the polymer S-21 synthesized in the examples, one constituent component has an ester group and a carboxyl group. Therefore, the content of the constituent component having an ester group and a carboxyl group is not set to 0.3 mol% respectively (total 0.6 mol%), but the ester group and the carboxyl group are summarized as one functional group and the content of this constituent component is set to 0.3 mol%.

[0158] The fluorine-based copolymer preferably contains a constituent component (constituent component having a functional group) having a functional group selected from the following functional group group (a) as a substituent, for example. The constituent component having a functional group has the function of improving the adsorption rate of the adhesive to the inorganic solid electrolyte. The constituent component having this functional group includes, in addition to the constituent component derived from the polymerizable compound having a functional group, the constituent component derived from the polymerizable compound constituting the functional group as a copolymerizable compound. As the constituent component derived from the polymerizable compound constituting the functional group, for example, a constituent component derived from a polymerizable carboxylic anhydride such as maleic anhydride can be cited. In addition, the constituent component having a functional group includes, for example, a constituent component copolymerized with vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene, or a constituent component obtained by introducing a functional group selected from the following functional group group (a) into the constituent component introduced from the vinylidene fluoride constituent component (such as dehydrofluorination) through various reactions (such as the copolymerization components of the polymers S-18 to S-24 synthesized in the examples).

[0159] The above functional group can be possessed by any constituent component forming the fluorine-based copolymer, and is preferably possessed by a constituent component other than the VDF constituent component, the HFP constituent component, and the constituent component derived from the polymerizable compound not containing a fluorine atom. As a preferred constituent component having the above functional group, for example, a constituent component derived from a fluorine-containing polymerizable compound can be cited. The functional group can be incorporated into the main chain of the polymer or into the side chain. When incorporated into the side chain, it includes the mode of bonding directly or via a linking group with the atoms forming the main chain of the polymer, and the mode in which the polymer chain of the macromonomer constituting the side chain has the above functional group.

[0160] In the present invention, the main chain of a polymer refers to a linear molecular chain that constitutes the polymer and to which all other molecular chains can be regarded as side chains or comb-shaped chains relative to the main chain. Although it depends on the mass average molecular weight of the molecular chains regarded as side chains or comb-shaped chains, typically, the longest chain among the molecular chains constituting the polymer becomes the main chain. However, the end groups possessed by the polymer terminal are not included in the main chain. Further, the side chain of a polymer refers to a molecular chain other than the main chain, including short molecular chains and long molecular chains.

[0161] <Functional group group (a)>

[0162] Hydroxyl group, amino group, carboxyl group, sulfo group, phosphoric acid group, phosphonic acid group, thioalkyl group, ether bond (-O-), imino group (=NR, -NR-), ester bond (-CO-O-), amide bond (-CO-NR-), urethane bond (-NR-CO-O-), urea bond (-NR-CO-NR-), heterocyclic group, aryl group, carboxylic anhydride group, isocyanate group (-NCO), alkoxysilyl group, fluoroalkyl group, siloxanyl group

[0163] The amino group, sulfo group, phosphoric acid group (phosphoryl group), heterocyclic group, aryl group, and alkoxysilyl group contained in the functional group group (a) are not particularly limited and have the same meaning as the corresponding groups of the substituent Z described later. Among them, the number of carbon atoms of the amino group is more preferably 0 to 12, further preferably 0 to 6, and particularly preferably 0 to 2. The phosphonic acid group is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a phosphonic acid group having 0 to 20 carbon atoms. The hydroxyl group, amino group, carboxyl group, sulfo group, phosphoric acid group, phosphonic acid group, and thioalkyl group can form salts. The fluoroalkyl group is a group obtained by substituting at least one hydrogen atom in an alkyl group or cycloalkyl group with a fluorine atom, and the number of carbon atoms thereof is preferably 1 to 20, more preferably 2 to 15, and further preferably 3 to 10. The number of fluorine atoms on the carbon atom may be a part of the substituted hydrogen atoms or all of them may be substituted (perfluoroalkyl group).

[0164] The siloxanyl group is not particularly limited, and for example, a group having a structure represented by -(SiR2-O)n- is preferred. The average repeat number n is preferably 1 to 100, more preferably 5 to 50, and further preferably 10 to 30.

[0165] The constituent having an ester bond (except for the ester bond forming a carboxyl group) or an amide bond as a functional group refers to a constituent in which the ester bond or amide bond is not directly bonded to the atom constituting the main chain. For example, it does not include a constituent derived from an alkyl (meth)acrylate.

[0166] R in each bond represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent, and a hydrogen atom is preferred. The substituent is not particularly limited and is selected from the substituent Z described later, and an alkyl group is preferred.

As the group formed by removing one or more hydrogen atoms from a carboxylic anhydride, a group formed by removing one or more hydrogen atoms from a cyclic carboxylic anhydride is preferred. The carboxylic anhydride group derived from a cyclic carboxylic anhydride also corresponds to a heterocyclic group, but in the present invention, it is classified as a carboxylic anhydride group in the functional group group (a). For example, non-cyclic carboxylic anhydrides such as acetic anhydride, propionic anhydride, and benzoic anhydride, and cyclic carboxylic anhydrides such as maleic anhydride, phthalic anhydride, fumaric anhydride, succinic anhydride, and itaconic anhydride can be mentioned. The polymerizable carboxylic anhydride is not particularly limited, and a carboxylic anhydride having an unsaturated bond in the molecule can be mentioned, and a polymerizable cyclic carboxylic anhydride is preferred.

For example, a compound in which a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond is directly bonded to the above functional group, a compound in which a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond is bonded to the above functional group via a linking group, and further a compound in which the functional group itself contains a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond (for example, the above polymerizable cyclic carboxylic anhydride). In addition, the compound having the above functional group includes a compound capable of introducing a functional group into a component copolymerized with VDF and HFP or a component introduced from a VDF component (for example, dehydrofluorination) through various reactions.

The macromonomer for introducing the macromonomer component can be appropriately determined according to the type of the polymer main chain forming the adhesive, etc., and is not unique. For example, a macromonomer having a polymer chain of a chain polymerization polymer described later can be cited.

The number of atoms constituting the linking group and the number of linking atoms are as described later. Among them, for the polyalkyleneoxy chain constituting the linking group, it is not limited to the above. As the group other than the above functional group, a substituent Z described later can be mentioned, and examples thereof include an alkyl group or a halogen atom.

The number of linking atoms of the linking group is preferably 10 or less, more preferably 8 or less. The lower limit is 1 or more.

[0194] When synthesizing a fluorine-based copolymer, the polymerization method of the raw material compounds (VDF, HFP and copolymerizable polymerizable compounds) is not particularly limited, and a known method is selected and the conditions can be appropriately set.

[0195] (Physical properties or characteristics of a fluorine-containing adhesive or a fluorine-based copolymer forming a fluorine-containing adhesive, etc.)

[0196] The fluorine-containing adhesive (fluorine-based copolymer) is not particularly limited, and the peel strength with respect to the aluminum foil is preferably 0.1 N / mm or more. Thereby, it is possible to impart firm collector adhesion to the active material layer and contribute to further improving the cycle characteristics of the all-solid-state secondary battery. From the viewpoint of further improving the collector adhesion and cycle characteristics, the peel strength of the fluorine-based copolymer is more preferably 0.2 N / mm or more, and further preferably 0.3 N / mm or more. The upper limit is not particularly limited. For example, in practice, it is 10 N / mm or less, preferably 2.0 N / mm or less. In the present invention, the peel strength can be appropriately set by changing the composition of the fluorine-based copolymer, changing the physical properties of the fluorine-containing adhesive, etc.

[0197] A solution (solid content concentration: 10% by mass) obtained by dissolving a fluorine-containing adhesive in an organic solvent (butyl butyrate) was dropped on an aluminum foil (trade name: A1N30, manufactured by Hohsen Corp.) and then dried (temperature: 100 °C, time: 180 minutes) to produce a dried film with a thickness of 50 μm (width: 10 mm, length: 50 mm). This was used as a test piece to measure the peel strength. Regarding the measurement method and conditions, a tensile tester (ZTS-50N, manufactured by IMADACO., LTD.) was used to measure the peel force when the obtained dried film was peeled from the coating surface of the aluminum foil in the direction of 90° at a speed of 30 mm / s, and the average value thereof was set as the peel strength (unit: N / mm).

[0198] The water concentration of the fluorine-containing adhesive (fluorine-based copolymer) is preferably 100 ppm (mass basis) or less. And this fluorine-containing adhesive can crystallize and dry the fluorine-based copolymer, or can directly use a fluorine-containing adhesive dispersion.

[0199] The fluorine-based copolymer is preferably amorphous. In the present invention, a polymer being "amorphous" typically means that no endothermic peak due to crystal melting is observed when measured at the glass transition temperature.

[0200] When the fluorine-containing binder is in the form of particles, its shape is not particularly limited and may be flat, amorphous, etc., and spherical or granular shapes are preferred. Its average primary particle size is not particularly limited, preferably 0.1 nm or more, more preferably 1 nm or more, further preferably 5 nm or more, particularly preferably 10 nm or more, and most preferably 50 nm or more. As the upper limit value, it is preferably 5.0 μm or less, more preferably 1 μm or less, further preferably 700 nm or less, and particularly preferably 500 nm or less.

[0201] The average particle size of the fluorine-containing binder can be measured in the same manner as the average particle size of the above-mentioned inorganic solid electrolyte.

[0202] In addition, the average particle size of the fluorine-containing binder in the constituent layer of the all-solid-state secondary battery can be measured, for example, as follows: After disassembling the battery and peeling off the constituent layer containing the fluorine-containing binder, the constituent layer is measured, and the measured values of the particle sizes of the particles other than the fluorine-containing binder that have been previously measured are removed.

[0203] For example, the average particle size of the fluorine-containing binder can be adjusted by the type of dispersion medium, the content of the constituent components in the polymer, etc.

[0204] The tensile fracture strain of the fluorine-based copolymer forming the fluorine-containing binder is 500% or more. If the above-mentioned specific fluorine-based copolymer shows a tensile fracture strain of 500% or more, in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte, as described above, the interaction between solid particles can be maintained, the repulsive force between fluorine atoms can effectively act on the solid particles, the dispersion stability or processability can be improved, the adhesion of the solid particles can be made firm, and the cycle characteristics can be further improved. In the present invention, the tensile fracture strain is more preferably 600% or more, further preferably 700% or more, particularly preferably 750% or more, and most preferably 2500% or more. The upper limit value of the tensile fracture strain is not particularly limited and is actually 10000%, preferably 6000% or less, and more preferably 3500% or less.

[0205] In the present invention, the tensile fracture strain can be appropriately set by changing the molecular weight of the fluorine-based copolymer, etc.

[0206] The tensile fracture strain is measured by preparing a test piece described in Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) K 7161 (2014) "Plastics - Methods for Determining Tensile Properties" and according to the methods and conditions described in this standard. Specifically, a solution obtained by dissolving a fluorine-based copolymer in, for example, DIBK or the like is used to prepare a cast film with a thickness of about 200 μm. The cast film is cut into a size of 10 mm × 20 mm, set on a tensile testing machine so that the chuck distance (distance between jigs) becomes 10 mm, and a tensile test (stress and strain line evaluation) is carried out at a test speed of 30 mm / min, thereby enabling the tensile fracture strain to be obtained. The tensile fracture strain is a value obtained by setting the length of the test piece before stretching to 100% and subtracting 100% from the length of the test piece at the time of fracture (elongation amount during stretching).

[0207] The weight average molecular weight of the fluorine-based copolymer is not particularly limited, and is preferably 50,000 to 1,500,000. If the fluorine-based copolymer has a weight average molecular weight within the above range, the dispersion stability and processability can be further improved, and furthermore, the tensile fracture strain can be increased. From the viewpoint that the tensile fracture strain increases due to the extension of the main chain of the copolymer, and thus the dispersion stability and processability are improved, the larger the weight average molecular weight, the more preferable. For example, it is more preferably 70,000 or more, further preferably 80,000 or more, and particularly preferably 100,000 or more. If the weight average molecular weight of the fluorine-based copolymer is 400,000 or more, the cycle characteristics of the all-solid-state secondary battery can be further improved. It is considered that since the copolymer becomes a high molecular weight, the steric exclusion effect is further enhanced, thereby enabling the dispersion stability of the composition (slurry) containing the inorganic solid electrolyte and the dispersion uniformity of the solid particles in the formed layer to be improved. The upper limit is more preferably 1,500,000 or less, and further preferably 1,200,000 or less. In one embodiment of the present invention, the weight average molecular weight of the fluorine-based copolymer can be set to 1,000,000 or less, and can also be set to 900,000 or less.

[0208] -Measurement of molecular weight-

[0209] In the present invention, for the molecular weight of the polymer and the polymer chain, unless otherwise specified, it refers to the weight average molecular weight or number average molecular weight in terms of standard polystyrene obtained by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). As the measurement method, it is basically set to the value measured by the following Condition 1 or Condition 2 (preferably). Among them, an appropriate eluent can be selected according to the type of polymer and used.

[0224] From the viewpoint of the dispersion stability of the fluorine-based copolymer from solid particles, for example, the SP value is preferably 9 to 23, more preferably 10 to 18, and further preferably 11 to 15. The difference (absolute value) between the SP value of the fluorine-based copolymer and the dispersion medium will be described later.

[0225] In the present invention, as long as the SP value is not particularly limited, it is obtained by the Hoy method (refer to H.L. Hoy JOURNAL OF PAINT TECHNOLOGY Vol. 42, No. 541, 1970, 76 - 118 and POLYMER HANDBOOK 4 th 、Chapter 59, VII page 686 Table 5, Table 6, and the following formula in Table 6). And, the unit of the SP value is omitted, but its unit is MPa 1 / 2 。

[0226] [Mathematical formula 1]

[0227]

[0228] In the formula, δt Represents the SP value. F t Is the molar attraction function (J×cm 3 ) 1 / 2 / mol, and is represented by the following formula. V is the molar volume (cm 3 / mol), and is represented by the following formula. Is represented by the following formula.

[0229]

[0230] In the above formula, F t,i Represents the molar attraction function of each structural unit, V i Represents the molar volume of each structural unit, Δ(p) T,i Represents the correction value of each structural unit, n i Represents the number of each structural unit.

[0231] The SP value of the polymer is calculated using the components (derived from the raw material compounds) and their SP values by the following formula. In addition, the SP values of the components obtained according to the above literature are converted into SP values (MPa 1 / 2 )(For example, 1 cal 1 / 2 cm- 3 / 2 ≈2.05 J 1 / 2 cm- 3 / 2 ≈2.05 MPa 1 / 2 ) and used.

[0232] SP p 2 =(SP1 2 ×W1)+(SP2 2 ×W2)+……

[0233] In the formula, SP1, SP2... represent the SP values of the components, and W1, W2... represent the mass fractions of the components. In addition, the SP value of the VDF component is 13.1, and the SP value of the HFP component is 10.1.

[0234] In the present invention, the mass fraction of the component is the mass fraction of the component (raw material compound introducing the component) in the polymer.

[0235] The SP value of the fluorine-containing copolymer can be adjusted by the composition of the fluorine-containing copolymer (types and contents of components), etc.

[0236] The fluorine-containing copolymer preferably satisfies the above physical properties, etc., but from the viewpoints of dispersion stability, processability, adhesiveness, collector body adhesion, and resistance suppression, it is more preferably the polymer shown below (two modes).

[0237] A fluorine-based copolymer having an HFP content of 30 to 40 mol%, with a small amount (the above content) of a carboxylic anhydride group (preferably a maleic anhydride group) introduced as a functional group, and a tensile fracture strain of 2500 to 3500%, and a fluorine-based copolymer having an adsorption rate of the fluorine-containing binder to the inorganic solid electrolyte greater than 0% and less than 5%.

[0238] A fluorine-based copolymer having an HFP content of 21 to 40 mol%, preferably with a small amount (the above content) of a functional group (a) introduced, a tensile fracture strain of 500% or more, and a weight-average molecular weight of 400,000 or more, and a fluorine-based copolymer having an adsorption rate of the fluorine-containing binder to the inorganic solid electrolyte greater than 0% and less than 10%.

[0239] The fluorine-based copolymer forming the fluorine-containing binder can be a non-crosslinked polymer or a crosslinked polymer. Moreover, when crosslinking the polymer by heating or applying a voltage, the molecular weight can become greater than the above molecular weight. Preferably, when starting to use the all-solid-state secondary battery, the weight-average molecular weight of the polymer is in the above range.

[0240] The composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention can contain one kind of fluorine-containing binder or can contain a plurality of binders.

[0241] The content of the fluorine-containing binder in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte is not particularly limited. From the viewpoints of improving dispersion stability and processability and then showing adhesiveness, in 100 mass% of the solid components, it is preferably 0.1 to 10.0 mass%, more preferably 0.2 to 5.0 mass%, and further preferably 0.3 to 4.0 mass%.

[0242] When the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte contains the granular binder described later, the content (solid component amount) of the fluorine-containing binder can be lower than the content (solid component amount) of the granular binder, but preferably the same or higher. Thereby, the adhesiveness can be further enhanced without impairing the excellent dispersion stability and processability. The difference (absolute value) between the content of the fluorine-containing binder and the content of the granular binder is not particularly limited. For example, it can be set to 0 to 8 mass%, more preferably 0 to 4 mass%, and further preferably 0 to 2 mass%. Moreover, the ratio of the content of the fluorine-containing binder to the content of the granular binder (content of the fluorine-containing binder / content of the granular binder) is not particularly limited. For example, it is preferably 0.01 to 10, more preferably 0.02 to 5.

[0243] When the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte contains a chain polymerization polymer binder composed of a chain polymerization polymer (excluding the above-mentioned fluorine-based copolymer), the content (solid content) of the fluorine-containing binder can be lower than the content (solid content) of the binder composed of the chain polymerization polymer, but it is preferably the same or higher. Thereby, the dispersion stability and the cycle characteristics can be further enhanced.

Among them, from the viewpoint of reliability, it is preferable to use a carbonaceous material, a metal composite oxide or a lithium monomer. From the viewpoint of enabling the all-solid-state secondary battery to have a large capacity, it is preferably an active material capable of alloying with lithium. Since the solid particles in the constituent layer formed of the solid electrolyte composition of the present invention are firmly bonded to each other, an active material capable of alloying with lithium can be used as the negative electrode active material.

As these oxides, amorphous oxides are preferred, and reaction products of metal elements and elements of Group 16 of the periodic table, i.e., chalcogenides, are further preferably listed. In the present invention, a semi-metal element refers to an element showing intermediate properties between metal elements and non-semi-metal elements, and generally includes six elements: boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium, and further includes three elements: selenium, polonium, and astatine. Moreover, amorphous means a material having a broad scattering band with a peak in the region of 2θ values of 20° to 40° using X-ray diffraction with CuKα rays, and may also have crystalline diffraction lines.

Specific examples of preferred amorphous oxides and chalcogenides include, for example, Ga2O3, GeO, PbO, PbO2, Pb2O3, Pb2O4, Pb3O4, Sb2O3, Sb2O4, Sb2O8Bi2O3, Sb2O8Si2O3, Sb2O5, Bi2O3, Bi2O4, GeS, PbS, PbS2, Sb2S3, or Sb2S5.

[0325] The negative electrode active material, such as a metal oxide, also preferably contains a titanium element (titanium oxide). Specifically, since Li4Ti5O 12 (lithium titanate [LTO]) has a small volume change when absorbing and releasing lithium ions, it is excellent in rapid charge and discharge characteristics, suppresses the deterioration of the electrode, and is preferable in that it can improve the life of the lithium ion secondary battery in two respects.

[0326] The lithium alloy as the negative electrode active material is not particularly limited as long as it is an alloy generally used as the negative electrode active material of a secondary battery. For example, a lithium-aluminum alloy can be cited.

[0327] The negative electrode active material that can alloy with lithium is not particularly limited as long as it is an active material generally used as the negative electrode active material of a secondary battery. Since this kind of active material has a large expansion and contraction due to charge and discharge of the all-solid-state secondary battery and accelerates the deterioration of the cycle characteristics, the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention contains the above-mentioned fluorine-containing binder, and thus can suppress the deterioration of the cycle characteristics. As such an active material, (negative electrode) active materials (alloys, etc.) having a silicon element or a tin element, various metals such as Al and In can be cited, and a negative electrode active material having a silicon element (a silicon element-containing active material) capable of achieving a higher battery capacity is preferable, and a silicon element-containing active material having a silicon element content of 50 mol% or more of all constituent elements is more preferable.

[0328] Generally, a negative electrode containing these negative electrode active materials (for example, a Si negative electrode containing a silicon element-containing active material, a Sn negative electrode containing an active material having a tin element, etc.) can absorb more Li ions than a carbon negative electrode (graphite, acetylene black, etc.). That is, the amount of Li ions occluded per unit mass increases. Therefore, the battery capacity (energy density) can be increased. As a result, it has the advantage of being able to extend the battery driving time.

[0329] As the active material containing a silicon element, for example, silicon materials such as Si and SiOx (0 < x ≤ 1), silicon-containing alloys containing titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, nickel, copper, lanthanum, etc. (for example, LaSi2, VSi2, La-Si, Gd-Si, Ni-Si) or organized active materials (for example, LaSi2 / Si), and active materials containing silicon and tin elements such as SnSiO3 and SnSiS3 can be cited. In addition, SiOx can be used as the negative electrode active material (semi-metal oxide) itself, and Si is generated by the operation of the all-solid-state secondary battery, so it can be used as the negative electrode active material (its precursor material) capable of alloying with lithium.

[0330] As the negative electrode active material containing a tin element, for example, those containing Sn, SnO, SnO2, SnS, SnS2, and the above-mentioned active materials containing silicon and tin elements can be cited. And composite oxides with lithium oxide, such as Li2SnO2, can also be cited.

[0331] In the present invention, the above-mentioned negative electrode active material can be used without particular limitation, but from the viewpoint of battery capacity, as the negative electrode active material, a mode that can alloy with lithium is preferred, among which, the above-mentioned silicon material or silicon-containing alloy (alloy containing a silicon element) is more preferred, and silicon (Si) or a silicon-containing alloy is further preferred.

[0332] As a measurement method, it can be analyzed by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) emission spectrometry, and as a simple method, the chemical formula of the compound obtained by the above-mentioned firing method can be calculated from the mass difference of the powder before and after firing.

[0333] The shape of the negative electrode active material is not particularly limited, and a granular shape is preferred. The volume average particle diameter of the negative electrode active material is not particularly limited, and is preferably 0.1 to 60 μm. The volume average particle diameter of the negative electrode active material particles can be measured in the same manner as the particle diameter of the above-mentioned inorganic solid electrolyte. In order to set it to a specified particle diameter, a usual pulverizer or classifier is used in the same manner as the positive electrode active material.

[0334] The above-mentioned negative electrode active material can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0335] When forming the negative electrode active material layer, the mass (mg) (weight per unit area) of the negative electrode active material per unit area (cm 2 ) is not particularly limited. It can be appropriately determined according to the designed battery capacity. For example, it can be set to 1 to 100 mg / cm 2 .

[0336] The content of the negative electrode active material in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte is not particularly limited, and in 100% by mass of the solid component, it is preferably 10 to 90% by mass, more preferably 20 to 85% by mass, still more preferably 30 to 80% by mass, and further preferably 40 to 75% by mass.

[0337] In the present invention, when forming the negative electrode active material layer by charging the secondary battery, instead of the above-mentioned negative electrode active material, ions belonging to metals in Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table generated in the all-solid-state secondary battery can be used. By bonding the ions with electrons to precipitate as a metal, the negative electrode active material layer can be formed.

[0338] (Coating of the active material)

[0339] The surfaces of the positive electrode active material and the negative electrode active material can also be surface-coated with different metal oxides. As the surface coating agent, metal oxides containing Ti, Nb, Ta, W, Zr, Al, Si, or Li can be cited, etc. Specifically, spinel titanate, tantalum-based oxides, niobium-based oxides, lithium niobate-based compounds, etc. can be cited.

[0340] Moreover, the surface of the electrode containing the positive electrode active material or the negative electrode active material can be surface-treated with sulfur or phosphorus.

[0341] Furthermore, the surfaces of the particles of the positive electrode active material or the negative electrode active material can be surface-treated with actinic rays or active gases (such as plasma) before and after the above surface coating.

For example, it can be graphite-based materials such as natural graphite and artificial graphite as electron conductive materials, carbon black-based materials such as acetylene black, Ketjenblack, and furnace black, amorphous carbon such as needle coke, carbon fiber-based materials such as vapor-grown carbon fiber or carbon nanotube, carbonaceous materials such as graphene or fullerene, metal powders and metal fibers such as copper and nickel, and conductive polymers such as polyaniline, polypyrrole, polythiophene, polyacetylene, and polyphenylene derivatives.

[0345] In the present invention, in the case of using the active material and the conductive additive in combination, among the above conductive additives, when the battery is charged and discharged, no ions (preferably Li ions) of metals belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table are inserted and extracted, and the conductive additive that does not function as an active material. Therefore, among the conductive additives, those that can function as an active material in the active material layer when the battery is charged and discharged are classified as active materials rather than conductive additives. Whether it functions as an active material when the battery is charged and discharged is determined by the combination with the active material, rather than being determined unconditionally.

[0346] The conductive additive may contain one kind or may contain two or more kinds.

[0347] The shape of the conductive additive is not particularly limited, and preferably granular.

[0348] When the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention contains a conductive additive, the content of the conductive additive in the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte is preferably 0 to 10% by mass in 100% by mass of the solid component.

[0354] In the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention, the above polymer binder also functions as a dispersant. Therefore, a dispersant other than the polymer binder may not be included, or a dispersant may be included. As the dispersant, a dispersant commonly used in all-solid-state secondary batteries can be appropriately selected and used. Generally, a compound required in particle adsorption, steric exclusion, and / or electrostatic exclusion is appropriately used.

For example, a sheet preferably used for a solid electrolyte layer (also referred to as a solid electrolyte sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery), a sheet preferably used for an electrode or a laminate of an electrode and a solid electrolyte layer (an electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery), etc. can be cited. In the present invention, these various sheets are collectively referred to as sheets for all-solid-state secondary batteries.

[0362] The solid electrolyte sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries of the present invention only needs to be a sheet having a solid electrolyte layer, and can be a sheet with a solid electrolyte layer formed on a substrate, or a sheet formed only of a solid electrolyte layer without a substrate.

The layer thickness of each layer constituting the solid electrolyte sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries is the same as the layer thickness of each layer described in the all-solid-state secondary battery described later.

[0364] As the substrate, as long as it is a substrate capable of supporting the solid electrolyte layer, there is no particular limitation, and examples include sheet materials (plate-like bodies) such as the materials described in the current collector described later, organic materials, and inorganic materials. As organic materials, various polymers can be cited, and specifically, polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, polyethylene, and cellulose can be cited.

[0365] The electrode sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries of the present invention (also simply referred to as "electrode sheet") only needs to be an electrode sheet having an active material layer, and can be a sheet with an active material layer formed on a substrate (current collector), or a sheet formed only of an active material layer without a substrate.

For example, a method of forming a layer (coating and drying layer) composed of a composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte by film-forming (coating and drying) on a substrate or a current collector (it may be via another layer) is preferably cited. Thereby, a sheet for all-solid-state secondary battery having a substrate or a current collector and a coating and drying layer can be produced. In particular, when the sheet for all-solid-state secondary battery is produced by film-forming the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention on a current collector, the adhesion between the current collector and the active material layer can be made strong. Here, the coating and drying layer means a layer formed by coating the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention and drying the dispersion medium (that is, a layer formed using the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention and composed of a composition in which the dispersion medium is removed from the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention).

Regarding the pressing conditions and the like, they will be described in the method for manufacturing the all-solid-state secondary battery described later.

[0371] Moreover, in the method for manufacturing the sheet for all-solid-state secondary battery of the present invention, the substrate, the protective layer (especially the release sheet), etc. can also be peeled off.

[0373] The all-solid-state secondary battery of the present invention has a positive electrode active material layer, a negative electrode active material layer opposed to the positive electrode active material layer, and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the positive electrode active material layer and the negative electrode active material layer. The positive electrode active material layer is preferably formed on a positive electrode current collector and constitutes the positive electrode. The negative electrode active material layer is preferably formed on a negative electrode current collector and constitutes the negative electrode.

The inorganic solid electrolytes and polymer binders (fluorine-containing binders) contained in the positive electrode active material layer 4, the solid electrolyte layer 3, and the negative electrode active material layer 2 may be of the same type or different types, respectively.

And either one or both of the positive electrode active material and the negative electrode active material are simply referred to as an active material or an electrode active material.

And each layer can be configured as a single layer or as multiple layers.

[0395] [Manufacture of All-Solid-State Secondary Battery]

[0396] The all-solid-state secondary battery can be manufactured by a conventional method. Specifically, the all-solid-state secondary battery can be manufactured by forming the above-mentioned respective layers using the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention, etc. Hereinafter, a detailed description will be given.

[0397] The all-solid-state secondary battery of the present invention can be manufactured by a method (a method for manufacturing a sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery of the present invention) including a step of forming a coating film (film formation) by appropriately coating the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention on a substrate (for example, a metal foil serving as a current collector).

[0398] For example, a positive electrode active material layer is formed by coating a composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte and a positive electrode active material (positive electrode composition) on a metal foil serving as a positive electrode current collector to produce a positive electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery. Subsequently, a solid electrolyte layer is formed by coating a composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte for forming the solid electrolyte layer on the positive electrode active material layer. Further, a negative electrode active material layer is formed by coating a composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte and a negative electrode active material (negative electrode composition) on the solid electrolyte layer. By overlapping a negative electrode current collector (metal foil) on the negative electrode active material layer, an all-solid-state secondary battery having a structure in which the solid electrolyte layer is sandwiched between the positive electrode active material layer and the negative electrode active material layer can be obtained. It can also be sealed in a case to form a desired all-solid-state secondary battery.

[0399] Moreover, conversely to the formation method of each layer, an all-solid-state secondary battery can also be manufactured by forming a negative electrode active material layer, a solid electrolyte layer, and a positive electrode active material layer on a negative electrode current collector and then overlapping a positive electrode current collector.

[0400] As another method, the following method can be cited. That is, a positive electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery is produced as described above. And a negative electrode active material layer is formed by coating a composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte and a negative electrode active material (negative electrode composition) on a metal foil serving as a negative electrode current collector to produce a negative electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery. Subsequently, a solid electrolyte layer is formed on the active material layer of any of these sheets as described above. Further, the other of the positive electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery and the negative electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery is laminated on the solid electrolyte layer in such a manner that the solid electrolyte layer is in contact with the active material layer. In this way, an all-solid-state secondary battery can be manufactured.

[0401] Moreover, as another method, the following method can be cited. That is, a positive electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery and a negative electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery are produced as described above. In addition, a solid electrolyte sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery composed of a solid electrolyte layer is produced by coating a composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte on a substrate. Further, they are laminated in such a form that the solid electrolyte layer peeled from the substrate is sandwiched between the positive electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery and the negative electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery. In this way, an all-solid-state secondary battery can be manufactured.

[0402] In addition, as described above, a positive electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery, a negative electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery, and a solid electrolyte sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery are produced. Next, the positive electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery or the negative electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery and the solid electrolyte sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery are overlapped and pressed in a state where the positive electrode active material layer or the negative electrode active material layer is in contact with the solid electrolyte layer. In this way, the solid electrolyte layer is transferred to the positive electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery or the negative electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery. Then, the solid electrolyte layer obtained by peeling the substrate of the solid electrolyte sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery and the negative electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery or the positive electrode sheet for an all-solid-state secondary battery (in a state where the negative electrode active material layer or the positive electrode active material layer is in contact with the solid electrolyte layer) are overlapped and pressed. In this way, an all-solid-state secondary battery can be manufactured. The pressing method, pressing conditions, etc. in this method are not particularly limited, and the methods and pressing conditions, etc. described in the pressing of the composition to be coated described later can be applied.

[0403] The solid electrolyte layer, etc. is formed, for example, by pressing and molding a composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, etc. on a substrate or an active material layer under the pressing conditions described later.

[0404] In the above manufacturing method, the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention can be used for any one of the positive electrode composition, the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, and the negative electrode composition. It is preferable to use the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention for the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte, and the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention can also be used for any composition.

[0405] When the solid electrolyte layer or the active material layer is formed from a composition other than the solid electrolyte composition of the present invention, examples of its material include commonly used compositions, etc. And when manufacturing an all-solid-state secondary battery, if the negative electrode active material layer is not formed, ions of a metal belonging to Group 1 or Group 2 of the periodic table that are accumulated in the negative electrode current collector through the initialization or charging during use described later are combined with electrons and deposited as a metal on the negative electrode current collector, etc., and thus the negative electrode active material layer can also be formed.

[0406] The solid electrolyte layer, etc. can also be formed, for example, by pressing and molding a solid electrolyte composition, etc. on a substrate or an active material layer under the pressing conditions described later, and a sheet molded body of a solid electrolyte or an active material can also be used.

[0407] <Formation (film formation) of each layer>

[0408] The coating method of the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte is not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected. For example, coating (preferably wet coating), spraying, spin coating, dip coating, slot coating, stripe coating, bar coating can be cited.

[0409] At this time, the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte can be dried after separate coating or after multi-layer coating. The drying temperature is not particularly limited. The lower limit is preferably 30°C or higher, more preferably 60°C or higher, and further preferably 80°C or higher. The upper limit is preferably 300°C or lower, more preferably 250°C or lower, and further preferably 200°C or lower. By heating within such a temperature range, the dispersion medium can be removed to obtain a solid state (coating drying layer). Moreover, the temperature is not too high and the components of the all-solid-state secondary battery are not damaged, so it is preferred. Thus, in the all-solid-state secondary battery, excellent overall performance is exhibited and good adhesiveness and good ion conductivity without pressure can be obtained.

[0410] As described above, when coating and drying the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention, deviation in the contact state can be suppressed and solid particles can be bonded, and a coating drying layer with a flat surface can be formed.

[0411] It is preferred to press each layer or the all-solid-state secondary battery after overlapping the constituent layers or manufacturing the all-solid-state secondary battery after coating the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte. Examples of the pressing method include a hydraulic cylinder stamping machine. The pressing force is not particularly limited, and generally, it is preferably in the range of 5 to 1500 MPa.

[0412] Moreover, the coated composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte can be heated while being pressed. The heating temperature is not particularly limited, and generally, it is in the range of 30 to 300°C. Stamping can also be performed at a temperature higher than the glass transition temperature of the inorganic solid electrolyte. Additionally, stamping can also be performed at a temperature higher than the glass transition temperature of the polymer contained in the polymer binder. However, generally, it is a temperature not exceeding the melting point of the polymer.

[0413] Pressing can be performed in a state where the coating solvent or dispersion medium has been pre-dried, or can also be performed in a state where the solvent or dispersion medium remains.

[0414] In addition, each composition can be coated simultaneously, or coating, drying, and stamping can be performed simultaneously and / or stepwise. After coating on their respective substrates, they can be laminated by transfer.

[0415] As the manufacturing process, for example, the environment during heating or pressing is not particularly limited, and it can be any environment such as under atmospheric pressure, under dry air (dew point -20°C or lower), in an inert gas (for example, in argon, in helium, in nitrogen), etc.

[0416] The stamping time can apply high pressure for a short time (e.g., within a few hours) or medium pressure for a long time (more than 1 day). In cases other than the sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries, for example, in the case of all-solid-state secondary batteries, the restraint tools (such as screw fastening pressure) of the all-solid-state secondary batteries can be used to continuously apply medium pressure.

[0417] Relative to the pressed part such as the sheet surface, the stamping pressure can be a uniform pressure or different pressures.

[0418] The stamping pressure can be changed according to the area or film thickness of the pressed part. Also, the same part can be changed in stages with different pressures.

[0419] The stamping surface can be smooth or rough.

[0420] <Initialization>

[0421] The all-solid-state secondary battery manufactured as described above is preferably initialized after manufacture or before use. The initialization is not particularly limited. For example, initial charging and discharging can be performed in a state where the stamping pressure is increased, and then the pressure is released until the general use pressure of the all-solid-state secondary battery is reached.

[0422] [Uses of All-Solid-State Secondary Batteries]

[0423] The all-solid-state secondary battery of the present invention can be applied to various uses. The application method is not particularly limited. For example, in the case of being mounted on an electronic device, examples include laptop computers, pen input computers, mobile computers, e-book readers, mobile phones, cordless phone handsets, pagers, handheld terminals, portable fax machines, portable copiers, portable printers, stereo headphones, video cameras, liquid crystal TVs, handheld vacuum cleaners, portable CDs, floppy disks, electric shavers, transceivers, electronic notebooks, calculators, memory cards, portable tape recorders, radios, backup power supplies, etc. As other civilian products, examples include automobiles, electric vehicles, motors, lighting fixtures, toys, game consoles, load regulators, clocks, flashlights, cameras, and medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids, and shoulder massagers, etc.). Moreover, it can be used as various military and aviation products. And it can also be combined with solar cells.

Then, using a hot press, the dried composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte was heated and pressed at a temperature of 120 °C and a pressure of 40 MPa for 10 seconds to fabricate solid electrolyte sheets SE-1 to SE-4 for all-solid-state secondary batteries, respectively. The film thickness of the solid electrolyte layer was 50 μm.

[0543] Using a baking applicator (product name: SA-201), each of the positive electrode compositions P-1 to P-24 obtained above was coated on an aluminum foil with a thickness of 20 μm, heated at 80 °C for 1 hour, further heated at 110 °C for 1 hour, and the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte was dried (removing the dispersion medium). Then, using a hot press, the dried positive electrode composition was pressed at 25 °C (10 MPa, 1 minute) to fabricate positive electrode sheets P-1 to P-24 for all-solid-state secondary batteries each having a positive electrode active material layer with a film thickness of 100 μm, respectively.

[0544] <Fabrication of negative electrode sheet for all-solid-state secondary battery>

[0545] Using a baking applicator (product name: SA-201), each of the obtained positive electrode compositions N-1 to N-17 was coated on an aluminum foil with a thickness of 20 μm, heated at 80°C for 1 hour, further heated at 110°C for 1 hour, and the composition containing the inorganic solid electrolyte was dried (removing the dispersion medium).

[0546] <Evaluation 1: Dispersion stability>

[0547] Each of the prepared compositions was put into a glass test tube with a diameter of 10 mm and a height of 4 cm up to a height of 4 cm, and left standing at 25°C for 24 hours. The reduction rate of the solid content in the upper 30% (height) of the slurry before and after standing was calculated from the above formula. According to which of the following evaluation criteria the solid content reduction rate was included in, the ease (precipitability) of precipitation of the inorganic solid electrolyte and the active material was evaluated as the dispersion stability of the composition. In this test, the smaller the solid content reduction rate, the more excellent the dispersion stability, and a level of "F" or above in the evaluation criteria was the qualified level. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0548] Reduction rate of solid content (%) = [(Solid content concentration in the upper 30% before standing - Solid content concentration in the upper 30% after standing) / Solid content concentration in the upper 30% before standing] × 100

[0549] - Evaluation criteria -

[0550] A: Solid content reduction rate < 1%

[0551] B: 1% ≤ Solid content reduction rate < 10%

[0552] C: 10% ≤ Solid content reduction rate < 20%

[0556] G: 50% ≤ Solid content reduction rate

[0557] <Evaluation 2: Processability>

[0558] In the same manner as for each of the prepared compositions, except for the dispersion medium, with the same mixing ratio, the amount of the dispersion medium was reduced to prepare a slurry having a solid component concentration of 75% by mass. 2 mL of polyspot (manufactured by Atect Corporation) was vertically arranged so that the tip 10 mm was below the slurry interface, and the slurry was suctioned for 10 seconds at 25°C, and the mass W of the polyspot containing the suctioned slurry was measured. When the tare weight (self-weight) of the polyspot was set as W0, the case where the slurry mass W - W0 was less than 0.1 g was judged as being unable to be suctioned with a dropper. When the slurry could not be sucked with a dropper, the upper limit solid component concentration at which it could be sucked with a dropper while gradually adding the dispersion medium was determined. Based on which of the following evaluation criteria the obtained upper limit solid component concentration was included in, the processability of the composition (whether it has an appropriate viscosity to form a flat and good-surfaced formed layer) was evaluated. The solid component concentration was calculated by placing 0.30 g of the prepared slurry on an aluminum cup and heating it at 120°C for 2 hours to distill off the dispersion medium.

[0559] In this test, the higher the above upper limit solid component concentration, the more excellent the processability, and the level above the evaluation criterion "F" was the qualified level. The results are shown in Table 3.

The medicine bottle is fixed to a test tube mixer (trade name: Delta Mixer Se-40, TIETECH Co., Ltd.) and vibrated for 30 seconds (total number of vibrations 1400 times) at an amplitude of 5 mm.

[0570] After this vibration test, for the disc-shaped test piece taken out from the medicine bottle, the peeling ratio of the active material layer (notched active material layer) peeled from the current collector was calculated by the following formula. According to which of the following evaluation criteria the obtained peeling ratio was included in, the current collector adhesion was evaluated.

A pressure of 350 MPa was applied to the current collector side of the negative electrode sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries and LPS by the SUS rods for pressing. After temporarily removing the SUS rod on the LPS side, a disk-shaped indium (In) sheet (thickness 20 μm) with a diameter of 9 mm and a disk-shaped lithium (Li) sheet (thickness 20 μm) with a diameter of 9 mm were inserted onto the LPS inside the cylinder in this order.

[0588] The positive electrode sheets P-4 or P-14 for all-solid-state secondary batteries were punched into discs with a diameter of 10 mm and placed into a PET cylinder with an inner diameter of 10 mm. On the side of the positive electrode active material layer within the cylinder, the solid electrolyte sheets for all-solid-state secondary batteries shown in Table 4 were punched into discs with a diameter of 10 mm and placed into the cylinder.

A pressure of 350 MPa was applied to the current collector side of the positive electrode sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries and the aluminum foil side of the solid electrolyte sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries through the SUS rods for pressing. The SUS rod on the side of the solid electrolyte sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries was temporarily removed, and the aluminum foil of the solid electrolyte sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries was gently peeled off. Then, a disc-shaped In sheet with a diameter of 9 mm (thickness 20 μm) and a disc-shaped Li sheet with a diameter of 9 mm (thickness 20 μm) were sequentially inserted onto the solid electrolyte layer of the solid electrolyte sheet for all-solid-state secondary batteries within the cylinder.

[0604] From the results shown in Table 3 and Table 4, the following can be known.

[0605] In the comparative examples of the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte that does not use a fluorine-containing binder and a dispersion medium formed of a specific fluorine-based copolymer that satisfies a specific adsorption rate, both the dispersion stability and the processability are poor. Also, the current collector adhesion of the electrode sheet having a constituent layer formed of this composition is poor, and the cycle characteristics of the all-solid-state secondary battery are insufficient.

[0606] In contrast, the composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte of the present invention that uses a fluorine-containing binder, a dispersion medium, and an inorganic solid electrolyte formed of a specific fluorine-based copolymer that satisfies a specific adsorption rate has both high-level dispersion stability and processability. By using this composition containing an inorganic solid electrolyte to form a constituent layer of an all-solid-state secondary battery, the current collector adhesion of the obtained electrode sheet can be made firm, and an improvement in cycle characteristics can be achieved for the obtained all-solid-state secondary battery.
