Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to secondary batteries. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, with the development of IoT devices, fuel cells, and electric vehicles, the demand for secondary batteries as their power sources has increased more than ever before. Secondary batteries are capable of repeated charging and discharging and have high capacities, so they are widely used in devices ranging from small to large. Secondary batteries are primarily composed of a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and an electrolyte. Lithium-ion secondary batteries, which use an electrolyte solution containing lithium ions, are commonly used.

[0003] Currently, many electrolytes are flammable liquids, posing a fire risk if they leak. Therefore, solidification of electrolytes is being considered. Ceramic oxides, sulfides, and polymers are being considered for solid electrolytes. While ceramics offer excellent ionic conductivity, they struggle to conform to the positive and negative electrodes during expansion and contraction during charging and discharging, making it difficult to stabilize the material interface. For this reason, the use of polymer electrolytes, which offer mechanical conformity and a large interfacial area, has been proposed. It is generally known that increasing the interfacial area between the positive electrode and electrolyte improves charge-discharge characteristics. Furthermore, the addition of binders to the positive electrode active material to increase the interfacial area is being considered. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2016-69388 [Patent Document 2] Special Publication No. 2011-529252 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] In recent years, there has been a demand for longer life for secondary batteries, and for suppression of deterioration during repeated charge and discharge. Patent Document 1 describes a lithium secondary battery in which the negative electrode is coated with a polymer electrolyte made of urethane resin. Patent Document 2 describes a lithium secondary battery using a polymer electrolyte. Deterioration during repeated charge and discharge is generally believed to be due to interface deterioration, such as an increase in resistance at the electrode interface, but the cause is not uniquely determined, and battery life may be insufficient depending on the battery configuration and materials. According to the inventors' investigations, the lithium secondary batteries described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 did not have sufficient battery life.

[0006] At least one aspect of the present disclosure is directed to providing a secondary battery that can suppress deterioration during repeated charging and discharging. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] At least one aspect of the present disclosure is A secondary battery having a positive electrode layer, a negative electrode layer, and a bulk electrolyte layer between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer, the positive electrode layer includes a positive electrode active material and a binder, The bulk electrolyte layer is Li + , Na + , K. + , Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ and a first polymer, The binder comprises a second polymer and Li + , Na + , K. + , Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ and a metal salt containing at least one cation selected from the group consisting of: the second polymer comprises a urethane resin having attached cationic functional groups; The first polymer has a different structure than the second polymer in the secondary battery. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] According to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, a secondary battery capable of suppressing deterioration during repeated charge and discharge can be obtained. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0009] [Figure 1] 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of a secondary battery according to the present disclosure; DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0010] In the present disclosure, expressions such as "XX or more and YY or less" or "XX to YY" representing a numerical range mean a numerical range including the lower and upper limits, which are the endpoints, unless otherwise specified. Furthermore, when a numerical range is described in stages, the upper and lower limits of each numerical range can be arbitrarily combined. Furthermore, in the present disclosure, expressions such as "at least one selected from the group consisting of XX, YY, and ZZ" mean any of XX, YY, ZZ, a combination of XX and YY, a combination of XX and ZZ, a combination of YY and ZZ, or a combination of XX, YY, and ZZ. Note that when XX is a group, multiple XXs may be selected, and the same applies to YY and ZZ.

[0011] A secondary battery according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes: A secondary battery having a positive electrode layer, a negative electrode layer, and a bulk electrolyte layer between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer, the positive electrode layer includes a positive electrode active material and a binder, The bulk electrolyte layer is Li + , Na + , K. + , Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ and a first polymer, The binder comprises a second polymer and Li + , Na + , K. + , Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ and a metal salt containing at least one cation selected from the group consisting of: the second polymer comprises a urethane resin having attached cationic functional groups; The first polymer has a different structure than the second polymer.

[0012] As a result of extensive investigations, the inventors have found that deterioration due to repeated charge and discharge is likely to occur during discharge, i.e., when metal cations in the bulk electrolyte layer are biased toward the positive electrode layer. In the present disclosure, deterioration due to repeated charge and discharge refers to a decrease in ionic conductivity before and after repeated charge and discharge.

[0013] The present inventors speculate as follows about the reason why a secondary battery according to one embodiment of the present disclosure has a configuration capable of suppressing deterioration during repeated charge and discharge. Metal salts serving as supporting electrolytes are chosen for their combination of cations and anions with a high degree of dissociation, since secondary batteries are charged and discharged by the transfer of electrons between metal cations. It is generally known that the degree of dissociation follows the HSAB rule. Because metal cations are hard acids according to the HSAB rule, soft bases are chosen for their anions. Such soft bases generally have larger molecular sizes than metal cations. Therefore, when metal salts are used as supporting electrolytes, the mobility of dissociated ions in the electrolyte is lower than that of metal salts composed of hard acids and hard bases. Furthermore, because metal salts have a higher polarity than bulk electrolytes, they are more likely to aggregate in the bulk electrolyte. When metal salts aggregate, the mobility of ions is lower than when they are not aggregated. This is thought to result in a lower ionic conductivity.

[0014] The bulk electrolyte layer in the present disclosure includes a metal salt containing a predetermined metal cation. However, when the metal cations in the bulk electrolyte layer are dissociated and move toward the positive electrode layer during repeated charge and discharge, it is thought that recombination of the metal cations and anions and reaggregation of the metal salts occur, particularly at the interface between the bulk electrolyte layer and the positive electrode layer, where the mobility of the metal cations decreases, resulting in a decrease in ionic conductivity. On the other hand, the binder of the positive electrode layer in the present disclosure includes a second polymer containing a urethane resin to which cationic functional groups are bonded. When the anions paired with the cationic functional groups in the binder dissociate from the cationic functional groups, they can recombine with metal cations contained in the bulk electrolyte. Therefore, it was thought that metal cations would recombine at the interface between the positive electrode layer and the bulk electrolyte layer, reducing ionic conductivity. However, the configuration of the present disclosure unexpectedly demonstrated the effect of suppressing degradation during repeated charge / discharge. This is presumably because the cationic functional groups in the positive electrode binder near the interface between the positive electrode layer and the bulk electrolyte layer interact with the anions of the metal salt contained in the bulk electrolyte layer, facilitating dissociation of the metal cations paired with the anions. Therefore, by making recombination and re-agglomeration less likely to occur and promoting re-dissociation, it is believed that this suppresses the decrease in ionic conductivity and reduces degradation during repeated charge / discharge.

[0015] The secondary battery according to the present disclosure will be described in detail below.

[0016] <Secondary battery> The secondary battery has a positive electrode layer, a negative electrode layer, and a bulk electrolyte layer between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer. In the present disclosure, the bulk electrolyte layer contains a first polymer as a polymer electrolyte.

[0017] An example of the secondary battery of the present disclosure is shown in FIG. The secondary battery 1 shown in FIG. 1 shows an example of the schematic configuration of a secondary battery that uses a polymer electrolyte as a bulk electrolyte 7. A positive electrode active material 3 provided on a positive electrode current collector 2 is fixed with a positive electrode active material binder 4 to form a positive electrode 6. The positive electrode 6 may contain a conductive additive 5.

[0018] A negative electrode active material 8 provided on a negative electrode current collector 9 forms a negative electrode 10. In Fig. 1, the negative electrode active material represents metallic lithium, indium, etc. A bulk electrolyte layer 11 is provided between the positive electrode 6 and the negative electrode 10.

[0019] <Bulk electrolyte layer> The bulk electrolyte layer is Li + , Na + , K. + , Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ The bulk electrolyte layer preferably comprises a metal salt containing at least one cation selected from the group consisting of: and a first polymer. The bulk electrolyte layer is preferably a solid or semi-solid electrolyte, such as a dry polymer electrolyte or a gel electrolyte. That is, a non-liquid electrolyte is preferred. A dry polymer electrolyte is more preferred. The polymer electrolyte preferably does not substantially contain a liquid component, such as a liquid electrolyte. This allows the bulk electrolyte layer to have a larger contact interface with the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer, and also provides flexibility that allows it to follow the expansion and contraction of the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer, thereby improving the characteristics of the secondary battery.

[0020] <Positive electrode layer> The positive electrode layer includes a positive electrode active material and a binder. The binder is preferably provided on a positive electrode current collector. The positive electrode layer also preferably includes a positive electrode current collector. The positive electrode active material is preferably provided on the positive electrode current collector. The binder is a second polymer and Li + , Na + , K. + , Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ and a metal salt containing at least one cation selected from the group consisting of: It may also contain materials.

[0021] The positive electrode current collector may be, for example, a metal foil. Examples of metals include aluminum, stainless steel, copper, silver, gold, platinum, nickel, and palladium. The metals may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0022] As the positive electrode active material, for example, a material commonly used in secondary batteries such as lithium ion secondary batteries can be used. For example, (CF) m , (C2F) m , MnO2, TiS2, MoS2, FeS2, Li xA CoO2, Li xA NiO2, Li xA MnO2, Li xA Co y Ni 1-y O2, Li xA Co y M 1-y O z , Li xA Ni 1-y M y O z , Li xB Mn2O4, Li xB Mn 2-y M y O4 (in the above formulas, M represents at least one selected from the group consisting of Na, Mg, Sc, Y, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Al, Cr, Pb, Sb, and B; xA=0 to 1.2, xB=0 to 2.0, y=0 to 0.9, and z=2.0 to 2.3), vanadium oxides and lithium compounds thereof, niobium oxides and lithium compounds thereof, conjugated polymers using organic conductive substances, and olivine-based compounds. The xA and xB values ​​in the above composition formulas are values ​​before the start of charging and discharging, and increase or decrease with charging and discharging. The positive electrode active material can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0023] The conductive additive can also be one commonly used in secondary batteries such as lithium-ion secondary batteries. Examples include graphites such as natural graphite and artificial graphite, carbon blacks such as acetylene black, ketjen black, channel black, furnace black, lamp black, and thermal black, conductive fibers such as carbon fiber and metal fiber, metal powders such as aluminum powder, conductive whiskers such as zinc oxide whiskers and potassium titanate whiskers, conductive metal oxides such as titanium oxide, and organic conductive materials such as phenylene derivatives. The conductive additives can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0024] <Negative electrode layer> The negative electrode layer may be made of, but is not limited to, a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active material provided on the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode layer may contain a conductive additive.

[0025] (Negative electrode current collector) The negative electrode current collector may be, for example, a metal foil. Examples of metals include aluminum, stainless steel, copper, silver, gold, platinum, nickel, and palladium. The metals may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0026] (Negative electrode active material) Examples of the negative electrode active material include metals, metal fibers, carbon materials, oxides, nitrides, silicon, silicon compounds, tin, tin compounds, various alloy materials, etc. Among these, from the viewpoint of capacity density, metals, oxides, carbon materials, silicon, silicon compounds, tin, tin compounds, etc. are preferred. Examples of metals include metallic Li and In-Li, and examples of oxides include Li4Ti5O 12 Examples of carbon materials include various natural graphites, coke, partially graphitized carbon, carbon fiber, spherical carbon, various artificial graphites, and amorphous carbon. Examples of silicon compounds include silicon-containing alloys, silicon-containing inorganic compounds, silicon-containing organic compounds, and solid solutions. Examples of tin compounds include SnO B(0 < B < 2), SnO2, SnSiO3, Ni2Sn4, Mg2Sn, etc. can be mentioned.

[0027] In addition, the negative electrode material may contain a conductive auxiliary material. Examples of the conductive auxiliary material include, for example, graphite such as natural graphite and artificial graphite, carbon black such as acetylene black, ketjen black, channel black, furnace black, lamp black, and thermal black. When the negative electrode layer contains a second polymer, graphite can also be particularly preferably used as the negative electrode active material.

[0028] The conductive auxiliary material includes conductive fibers such as carbon fibers, carbon nanotubes, and metal fibers, metal powders such as carbon fluoride and aluminum, conductive whiskers such as zinc oxide, conductive metal oxides such as titanium oxide, and organic conductive materials such as phenylene derivatives.

[0029] <The first polymer> The first polymer has a structure different from that of the second polymer. The first polymer includes, for example, vinyl polymers, and more specifically, polyether acrylic resins having a three-dimensional crosslinked structure. The first polymer contained in the bulk electrolyte layer has a structure different from that of the second polymer contained in the positive electrode layer, enabling functional separation. For example, the first polymer has a function of improving the ionic conductivity in particular, and the second polymer has a function of improving the adhesion to the current collector, the positive electrode active material, and the bulk electrolyte layer in particular. Thereby, while maintaining the energy density of the secondary battery, further improvement in characteristics can be achieved.

[0030] The first polymer preferably has, in its polymer structure, at least one structure selected from the group consisting of the structure represented by the following formula (1) and the structure represented by the following formula (2) and the structure represented by the following formula (3). This gives the first polymer a three-dimensional crosslinked structure and makes it less likely to deform even at high temperatures. On the other hand, the structure has a terminal free chain, one end of which is not bonded to other polymer chains. This is thought to prevent the polymer from forming a dense network structure, making it less likely to inhibit the movement of metal ions while maintaining strength. [ka]

[0031] In formula (1), R 1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. 2 R represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 2 to 4). 3 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 1). In equation (2), R 4 R each independently represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. 5 , R 6 each independently represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 2 to 4). In equation (3), R 7 R each independently represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. 8 , R 9 , R 10 R each independently represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 2 to 4). 11 represents a trivalent organic group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 3, more preferably 1).

[0032] In the formulas (1) to (3), A1, B1, D1, D2 and D3 are each independently a linking group having at least an ethylene oxide structure represented by (-CH2CH2-O-).

[0033] In the three-dimensional cross-linked structure of the polymer, there is a free chain at one end that is not bonded to the polymer chain. The fact that the first polymer has a large amount of crosslinks and has a very low crosslink density is clearly expressed as the volume swelling ratio of the polymer electrolyte measured by a methyl ethyl ketone immersion method. Specifically, the volume swelling ratio of the first polymer measured by a methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) immersion method is preferably 40.0 to 120.0%.

[0034] The volume swelling ratio is a method for evaluating the crosslink density of crosslinked polymers, and the JIS method uses water and toluene. In the case of polymer electrolytes for secondary batteries, polymers with relatively moderate polarity are often used because they must contain ionic components. Therefore, the solvent used for swelling ratio measurement should preferably have affinity for both the ionic components and the polymer. MEK has a high affinity for alkali metal salts, organic ionic liquids, and polymers of various compositions, making it particularly suitable for measuring the volume swelling ratio of polymer electrolytes.

[0035] The volume swelling ratio is the ratio of the volume of a three-dimensional cross-linked polymer before and after it has been immersed in a specific solvent and has reached saturation due to the solvent. The volume swelling ratio is calculated using the following formula, where the volume of the specimen is calculated from the weight in air and the weight in water. The specific measurement method will be described later. Volume swelling rate (%) = (volume when saturated by solvent immersion) / (volume before solvent immersion) × 100

[0036] A volume swelling ratio of the first polymer of less than 40.0% is thought to indicate a low number of terminal free chains (the structure of formula (1)) and a high number of three-dimensional cross-linked structures. This results in low ionic conductivity and a tendency for the rate characteristics of the secondary battery to be poor. On the other hand, a volume swelling ratio of the first polymer of more than 120.0% indicates a lack of three-dimensional cross-linked structures, which is likely to result in a decrease in strength, such as a decrease in impact resistance at high temperatures. The volume swelling ratio of the polymer electrolyte is preferably 60.0 to 110.0%, and more preferably 70.0 to 105.0%.

[0037] The structure represented by formula (1) is preferably a structure represented by the following formula (1-1). [ka]

[0038] In formula (1-1), R 1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. 2 R represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 2 to 4). 3 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 1). m1 and n1 represent the average number of moles added, m1 represents an integer of 1 or more (preferably 1 to 110, more preferably 13 to 46), and n1 represents an integer of 0 or more (preferably 5% to 25% of m1, more preferably 11% to 25% of m1).

[0039] In formulas (1) to (3), it is preferable that A1, B1, D1, D2, and D3 each independently further have a propylene oxide structure represented by (-CH2CH(CH3)-O-). The arrangement of the ethylene oxide structure and the propylene oxide structure may be a block copolymer or a random copolymer. A random copolymer is preferable. Furthermore, A1, B1, D1, D2 and D3 may each independently further contain a diol structure having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6), to the extent that the effects of the present disclosure are not impaired. The rule structure is -OR x -O-, R x is an alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6).

[0040] The structure represented by formula (2) is preferably a structure represented by the following formula (2-1). [ka]

[0041] In formula (2-1), R 4R each independently represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. 5 , R 6 each independently represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 2 to 4). m2 and n2 represent the average number of moles added, m2 represents an integer of 1 or more (preferably 1 to 110, more preferably 13 to 46), and n2 represents an integer of 0 or more (preferably 5% to 25% of m2, more preferably 11% to 25% of m2).

[0042] The chain sandwiched between two -COO- may further contain a diol structure having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6 carbon atoms) to the extent that the effect of the present disclosure is not impaired. For example, a diol structure may be contained between ethylene oxide structures, between propylene oxide structures, or between an ethylene oxide structure and a propylene oxide structure. The diol structure may be -OR x -O-, R x is an alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6).

[0043] The structure represented by formula (3) is preferably a structure represented by the following formula (3-1). [ka]

[0044] In formula (3-1), R 7 R each independently represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. 8 , R 9 , R 10 R each independently represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 2 to 4). 11 represents a trivalent organic group (preferably a hydrocarbon group) having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 3, more preferably 1). m3 and n3 represent the average number of moles added, m3 each independently represents an integer of 1 or more (preferably 1 to 110, more preferably 13 to 46), and n3 each independently represents an integer of 0 or more (preferably 5% to 25% of m3, more preferably 11% to 25% of m3).

[0045] -COO- and R to an extent that does not impair the effect of the present disclosure. 11 The chain sandwiched between these may further contain a diol structure having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6). For example, a diol structure may be contained between ethylene oxide structures, between propylene oxide structures, or between an ethylene oxide structure and a propylene oxide structure. The diol structure may be a -OR x -O-, R x is an alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6).

[0046] The average number of moles Meo of ethylene oxide structures added per mole of (meth)acryloyl residue in the polymer contained in the first polymer is preferably 2.5 moles or more. Meo is more preferably 13 to 46. Within the above range, the crosslinking density of the polymer main chain becomes more appropriate, thereby achieving high ionic conductivity while maintaining strength at high temperatures. The (meth)acryloyl residue is a form in which a (meth)acryloyl group is addition-polymerized, and is represented by the following structure in formula (1), for example: [ka]

[0047] Furthermore, in the polymer contained in the first polymer, the average number of moles of propylene oxide structures added per mole of (meth)acryloyl residues, Mpo, is preferably 5 to 25%, more preferably 11 to 25%, of the average number of moles of ethylene oxide structures added per mole of (meth)acryloyl residues, Meo. By being in this range, the crystallinity of the polymer main chain is suppressed even if the molecular weight between crosslinking points is large, and it becomes easier to suppress the inhibition of metal ion migration, particularly at low temperatures.

[0048] The average numbers of moles added Meo and Mpo can be measured by decomposing the first polymer using pyrolysis GC / MS, and quantifying the fragments derived from (meth)acryloyl residues, the fragments derived from ethylene oxide structures, and the fragments derived from propylene oxide structures by creating respective calibration curves.

[0049] In the first polymer of the present disclosure, the three-dimensional crosslinked structure of the polymer has a very low crosslink density as described above, and the polymer chain has many free chains at one end that are not bonded to other polymer chains, etc. Such a crosslinked structure can be obtained, for example, by reacting the following materials: Polyether mono(meth)acrylate At least one selected from the group consisting of polyether di(meth)acrylate and polyether tri(meth)acrylate At least one selected from the group consisting of imidazolium-based ionic compounds having an unsaturated reactive functional group, pyridinium-based ionic compounds having an unsaturated reactive functional group, and ammonium-based ionic compounds having an unsaturated reactive functional group, and / or at least one selected from the group consisting of compounds having an unsaturated reactive functional group, an anionic functional group having a fluorinated sulfonylimide group or a perfluoroalkylsulfonylimide group, and a cation.

[0050] (Polyether mono(meth)acrylate) The polyether mono(meth)acrylate can form a structure represented by formula (1) (preferably formula (1-1)). Examples of the polyether mono(meth)acrylate include poly At least one selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol mono(meth)acrylate and mono(meth)acrylate of polyethylene glycol-propylene glycol copolymer can be used. When using mono(meth)acrylate of polyethylene glycol-propylene glycol copolymer, the molar ratio of ethylene glycol structure:propylene glycol structure is preferably 100:0 to 50:50, more preferably 80:20 to 95:5.

[0051] When the molar ratio of ethylene glycol structure:propylene glycol structure is within this range, the transportability of metal ions by polyethylene glycol can be maintained at a high level, and the combination with the structure of formula (4) and / or the structure of formula (5) makes it easier to suppress the inhibition of metal ion migration due to crystallization of the polymer.

[0052] The polyether mono(meth)acrylate is represented by, for example, the following formula (1'). [ka] In formula (1'), R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , m1 and n1 are the same as in formula (1-1).

[0053] (Polyether di(meth)acrylate) The polyether di(meth)acrylate can form a structure represented by formula (2) (preferably formula (2-1)). As the polyether di(meth)acrylate, for example, at least one selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol di(meth)acrylate and di(meth)acrylate of polyethylene glycol-propylene glycol copolymer can be used. When di(meth)acrylate of polyethylene glycol-propylene glycol copolymer is used, the molar ratio of ethylene glycol structure:propylene glycol structure is preferably 100:0 to 50:50, and more preferably 95:5 to 80:20.

[0054] When the molar ratio of ethylene glycol structure:propylene glycol structure is within this range, the transportability of metal ions by polyethylene glycol can be maintained at a high level, and the combination with the structure of formula (4) and / or the structure of formula (5) makes it easier to suppress the inhibition of metal ion migration due to crystallization of the polymer.

[0055] The polyether di(meth)acrylate is represented, for example, by the following formula (2'). [ka] In formula (2'), R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , m2 and n2 are the same as in formula (2-1). The chain sandwiched between two -COO- may further contain a diol structure having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6 carbon atoms) to the extent that the effect of the present disclosure is not impaired. For example, a diol structure may be contained between ethylene oxide structures, between propylene oxide structures, or between an ethylene oxide structure and a propylene oxide structure. The diol structure may be -OR x -O-, R x is an alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6).

[0056] (Polyether tri(meth)acrylate) The polyether tri(meth)acrylate can form a structure represented by formula (3) (preferably formula (3-1)). As the polyether tri(meth)acrylate, for example, at least one selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol tri(meth)acrylate and tri(meth)acrylate of polyethylene glycol-propylene glycol copolymer can be used. When the tri(meth)acrylate of polyethylene glycol-propylene glycol copolymer is used, the molar ratio of ethylene glycol structure:propylene glycol structure is preferably 100:0 to 50:50, and more preferably 80:20 to 95:5.

[0057] When the molar ratio of ethylene glycol structure:propylene glycol structure is within this range, the transportability of metal ions by polyethylene glycol can be maintained at a high level, and the combination with the structure of formula (4) and / or the structure of formula (5) makes it easier to suppress the inhibition of metal ion migration due to crystallization of the polymer.

[0058] The polyether tri(meth)acrylate is represented, for example, by the following formula (3'). [ka] In formula (3'), R 7 , R 8 , R 9 , R 10 , R 11 , m3, and n3 are the same as in formula (3-1). 11 The chain sandwiched between these may further contain a diol structure having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6). For example, a diol structure may be contained between ethylene oxide structures, between propylene oxide structures, or between an ethylene oxide structure and a propylene oxide structure. The diol structure may be a -OR x -O-, R x is an alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 4 to 6).

[0059] The structures represented by formula (1), formula (2), and formula (3) (preferably formula (1-1), formula (2-1), and formula (3-1)) can be obtained, for example, by using a polyether polyol obtained by ring-opening polymerization of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide. In addition, the arrangement of the ethylene oxide structure represented by (-CH-CH-O-) and the propylene oxide structure represented by (-CH-CH(CH)-O-) in formula (1-1), formula (2-1), and formula (3-1) (and formula (1'), formula (2'), and formula (3')) may be a block copolymer or a random copolymer. Random copolymerization is preferred.

[0060] The mass content of the structure represented by formula (1) in the polymer contained in the first polymer is defined as A. The mass content of the structure represented by formula (2) and the structure represented by formula (3) in the polymer (preferably the content of the structure represented by formula (2)) is defined as B. The mass ratio A:B of A to B is preferably 70:30 to 98:2, more preferably 88:12 to 96:4, and even more preferably 90:10 to 95:5.

[0061] The mass ratio A:B can be adjusted by specifically adjusting the ratio between polyether mono(meth)acrylate and polyether di(meth)acrylate and / or tri(meth)acrylate. When the mass ratio A:B is within the above range, the polymer does not have an excessively dense network structure, and the strength is maintained while the movement of metal ions is less likely to be hindered, which is particularly preferable.

[0062] In the first polymer, it is preferable that m1+n1 in formula (1-1) is 1 to 110 (more preferably 14 to 58), and m2+n2 in formula (2-1) and / or m3+n3 in formula (3-1) (preferably m2+n2 and m3+n3) are 1 to 110 (more preferably 14 to 58). By being in the above ranges, the crosslink density of the polymer main chain becomes appropriate, so that the ionic conductivity of the bulk electrolyte layer is higher while maintaining strength at high temperatures, and the rate characteristics of the secondary battery are also improved.

[0063] In the first polymer, it is preferred that m1:n1 in formula (1-1) is 80:20 to 95:5 (more preferably 80:20 to 90:10), and m2:n2 in formula (2-1) and / or m3:n3 in formula (3-1) (preferably m2:n2 in formula (2-1) and m3:n3 in formula (3-1)) are 80:20 to 95:5 (more preferably 85:15 to 95:5). Within the above range, the crystallinity of the polymer main chain is suppressed even if the molecular weight between crosslinking points is large, and it becomes easier to suppress the inhibition of metal ion migration, particularly at low temperatures.

[0064] The first polymer preferably has at least one structure selected from the group consisting of the structure represented by the following formula (4), the structure represented by the formula (5), the structure represented by the formula (6), and the structure represented by the formula (7). The structure represented by the formula (4) is an anionic structure, and the structures represented by the formula (5), the structure represented by the formula (6), and the structure represented by the formula (7) are nitrogen-containing cationic structures. When the first polymer has such a structure, the polarity difference between the metal salt contained in the bulk electrolyte layer and the polymer is reduced. As a result, the content at which the metal salt can be dissolved without precipitating can be increased. In particular, cations with nitrogen-containing aromatic structures are highly stable as cations, and are thought to interact with the anions of metal salts, thereby improving the dissociation rate of the metal salts. Furthermore, the anionic and nitrogen-containing cationic structures bonded to the polymer structure suppress the stereoregularity and reduce the crystallinity of the polymer, which is thought to prevent the decrease in ionic conductivity at low temperatures.

[0065] The first polymer preferably has a structure represented by the following formula (4). [ka] In equation (4), R 12 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. 13 R represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 7 carbon atoms (preferably 2 to 4). 14 represents a fluorine atom or a perfluoroalkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 2). + represents at least one selected from the group consisting of a lithium ion, a sodium ion, and a potassium ion.

[0066] The polyether composition of polyether (meth)acrylates, the main component of the polymer, is preferably polyethylene glycol in terms of the transportability of ions such as lithium ions. However, polyethylene glycol is highly crystalline, and there is a method of copolymerizing a propylene glycol structure, which has poor ion transportability, at a certain ratio.

[0067] On the other hand, because the structure represented by formula (4) is an anionic structure with a relatively large molecular size, introducing the structure represented by formula (4) into the polymer structure can reduce crystallinity. Therefore, crystallization can be suppressed even by reducing the amount of propylene glycol structures, which have poor lithium ion transport properties, in the polyether composition. As a result, high ionic conductivity can be maintained even after repeated charge / discharge cycles.

[0068] The content of the structure represented by formula (4) in the polymer electrolyte is preferably 1 to 30 parts by mass, more preferably 5 to 25 parts by mass, and even more preferably 10 to 20 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass in total of the structure represented by formula (1), the structure represented by formula (2), and the structure represented by formula (3). When the content of formula (4) is within this range, it is possible to expect an improvement in ionic conductivity due to a decrease in crystallinity while containing a sufficient amount of ions.

[0069] The state after these reactions can be confirmed by analysis using known means such as pyrolysis GC / MS, FT-IR, and NMR.

[0070] Cation X shown in formula (4) + are lithium ions, sodium ions and potassium ions. The cation may be selected depending on the carrier in the secondary battery. For example, lithium is selected for a lithium-ion secondary battery that uses lithium cobalt oxide or the like as the positive electrode active material, and sodium is selected for a sodium-sulfur secondary battery. The polymer electrolyte may contain a metal salt such as a lithium salt, a sodium salt, or a potassium salt, as long as the effects of the present disclosure are not impaired.

[0071] A compound having an unsaturated reactive functional group, an anionic functional group having a fluorinated sulfonylimide group or a perfluoroalkylsulfonylimide group, and a cation, which can form a structure represented by formula (4), is represented, for example, by the following formula (4'): [ka] In formula (4'), R 12 ~R 14 ,X + is the same as that explained in equation (4).

[0072] The first polymer preferably has at least one structure selected from the group consisting of a structure represented by the following formula (5), a structure represented by the following formula (6), and a structure represented by the following formula (7).

[0073] The first polymer preferably contains a structure represented by the following formula (5): For example, the structure represented by the following formula (5) may be a reaction product of an imidazolium-based ionic compound having an unsaturated reactive functional group. [ka]

[0074] In equation (5), R 15 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. R 16 represents a divalent linking group. 17 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 3, more preferably 1 or 2, and even more preferably 1). 18 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 3, more preferably 1 or 2, and even more preferably 1). Represents a group.

[0075] In equation (5), R16 ~R 18 Each of R is bonded to three elements selected from the group consisting of two nitrogen atoms and three carbon atoms that constitute the imidazolium ring structure. 16 ~R 18 One of X1 is attached to the cationic nitrogen atom in the imidazolium ring structure. - represents an anion. Preferably, R 16 is bonded to the cationic nitrogen atom constituting the imidazolium ring structure. 17 is bonded to the nitrogen atom that constitutes the imidazolium ring structure.

[0076] R as a linking group 16 Specifically, represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 1 or 2, and even more preferably 1), or a divalent organic group containing an ester bond. The divalent organic group containing an ester bond is preferably an ester bond (-COO-) or a carbonyloxyalkylene having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 1 or 2, and even more preferably 1). Preferably, the carbonyl group in the divalent organic group containing an ester bond is R 15 is bonded to the carbon to which it is bonded.

[0077] The imidazolium ring structure may have a substituent such as an alkyl group, a substituted alkyl group (substituted with a halogen or the like), or a halogen.

[0078] The first polymer preferably contains a structure represented by the following formula (6): For example, the structure represented by the following formula (6) may be a reaction product of a pyridinium-based ionic compound having an unsaturated reactive functional group. [ka]

[0079] In equation (6), R 19 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. R 20represents a divalent linking group. 21 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 3, more preferably 1 or 2, and even more preferably 1). In equation (6), R 20 and R 21 One of the X2 bonds to the nitrogen atom that constitutes the pyridinium ring structure, and the other bond to one of the five carbon atoms that constitute the pyridinium ring structure. - represents an anion. Preferably, R 20 is attached to the cationic nitrogen atom that constitutes the pyridinium ring structure.

[0080] R as a linking group 20 Specifically, represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 1 or 2, and even more preferably 1), or a divalent organic group containing an ester bond. The divalent organic group containing an ester bond is preferably an ester bond (-COO-) or a carbonyloxyalkylene having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 1 or 2, and even more preferably 1). Preferably, the carbonyl group in the divalent organic group containing an ester bond is R 19 is bonded to the carbon are.

[0081] The pyridinium ring structure may have a substituent such as an alkyl group, a substituted alkyl group (substituted with halogen or the like), or a halogen.

[0082] The polyether composition of polyether (meth)acrylates, the main component of the polymer, is preferably polyethylene glycol in terms of metal ion transportability. However, polyethylene glycol has high crystallinity, and to suppress crystallization, especially at low temperatures, one method is to copolymerize a propylene glycol structure, which has poor metal ion mobility, at a certain ratio.

[0083] On the other hand, the structure represented by formula (5) and the structure represented by formula (6) are cationic structures with a relatively large molecular size and a planar structure, and therefore, by introducing them into a polymer structure, crystallinity can be reduced. Therefore, by using the structure represented by formula (5) or the structure represented by formula (6), the amount of propylene glycol structures, which have poor metal ion transport properties, in the polyether composition can be reduced, and crystallization at low temperatures can be suppressed. As a result, high ionic conductivity can be maintained even at low temperatures.

[0084] Furthermore, by introducing the structure represented by formula (5) or the structure represented by formula (6) into the polymer structure, the polymer itself becomes ionic, and the affinity with metal salts is improved compared to when the polymer does not have the structure represented by formula (5) or the structure represented by formula (6), making it possible to dissolve more metal salts without precipitating them.

[0085] Furthermore, the imidazolium group contained in formula (5) and the pyridinium group contained in formula (6) have high stability as cations and a high dissociation rate with anions. Therefore, it is thought that the imidazolium group or pyridinium group interacts with the anion of the metal salt contained as the supporting electrolyte, promoting the dissociation of the metal salt and thereby improving the ionic conductivity.

[0086] The total content of the structure represented by formula (5) and the structure represented by formula (6) in the polymer structure is preferably 1 to 15 parts by mass, more preferably 2 to 5 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the total of the structures represented by formulas (1), (2), and (3). When the contents of formulas (5) and (6) are within these ranges, it is possible to achieve at a higher level both improved compatibility with the metal salt contained as the supporting electrolyte and improved ionic conductivity due to reduced crystallinity.

[0087] The state after these reactions can be confirmed by analysis using known means such as pyrolysis GC / MS, FT-IR, and NMR.

[0088] An imidazolium-based ionic compound having an unsaturated reactive functional group capable of forming the structure represented by formula (5) is represented, for example, by the following formula (5'): Furthermore, a pyridinium-based ionic compound having an unsaturated reactive functional group capable of forming the structure represented by formula (6) is represented, for example, by the following formula (6'): [ka]

[0089] In formula (5') and formula (6'), R 15 ~R 21 ,X1 - ,X2 - is the same as that explained in equations (5) and (6).

[0090] The first polymer preferably contains a structure represented by the following formula (7): For example, the structure represented by the following formula (7) may be a reaction product of an ammonium-based ionic compound having an unsaturated reactive functional group. [ka]

[0091] In equation (7), R 22 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. 23 represents a divalent linking group. 24 ~R 26 Each of X3 independently represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms. - represents an anion.

[0092] R as a linking group 23 Specifically, the alkylene group may be a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 1 or 2, and even more preferably 1), or an ester group. The divalent organic group containing an ester bond is preferably an ester bond (-COO-) or a carbonyloxyalkylene having 1 to 6 carbon atoms (preferably 1 to 4, more preferably 1 or 2, and even more preferably 1) in the alkylene. Preferably, the carbonyl group in the divalent organic group containing an ester bond is represented by R 22 is bonded to the carbon to which it is bonded.

[0093] The content of the structure represented by formula (7) in the polymer electrolyte is preferably 1 to 30 parts by mass, more preferably 5 to 25 parts by mass, and even more preferably 10 to 20 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass in total of the structure represented by formula (1), the structure represented by formula (2), and the structure represented by formula (3). When the content of formula (7) is within this range, it is possible to achieve at a higher level both improved compatibility with the metal salt contained as the supporting electrolyte and improved ionic conductivity due to reduced crystallinity.

[0095] Specific examples of the fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anion include fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anions having a fluoroalkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide anion, bis(pentafluoroethanesulfonyl)imide anion, bis(heptafluoropropanesulfonyl)imide anion, bis(nonafluorobutanesulfonyl)imide anion, bis(dodecafluoropentanesulfonyl)imide anion, and bis(perfluorohexanesulfonyl)imide anion, and cyclic fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anions such as N,N-hexafluoropropane-1,3-disulfonylimide.

[0096] A specific example of the fluorosulfonylimide anion is a bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide anion. Specific examples of the fluoroalkylsulfonate anion include trifluoromethanesulfonate anion, fluoromethanesulfonate anion, perfluoroethanesulfonate anion, perfluoropropanesulfonate anion, perfluorobutanesulfonate anion, perfluoropentanesulfonate anion, perfluorohexanesulfonate anion, and perfluorooctanesulfonate anion.

[0098] Specific examples of the fluoroborate anion include tetrafluoroborate anion. Examples include: A specific example of the fluorophosphate anion is hexafluorophosphate anion.

[0099] Among these anions, at least one selected from the group consisting of a fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anion, a fluorosulfonylimide anion, a fluoroborate anion, a dicyanamide anion, and a thiocyanate anion is particularly preferred because it reduces the decrease in ionic conductivity in a low-temperature environment.

[0101] <Metal salts> The bulk electrolyte layer is Li + , Na + , K. + , Mg 2+and Ca 2+ The metal salt includes at least one cation selected from the group consisting of: The metal salt is contained in the bulk electrolyte layer as a supporting electrolyte. In this case, the cation of the metal salt functions as a carrier in the secondary battery. For example, in a lithium secondary battery, the same cation, Li + is selected.

[0103] In view of chemical stability with respect to the positive electrode active material, the metal salt is preferably at least one selected from the group consisting of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiN(SOCF)), lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiN(SOF)), and LiN(CCFSO). One lithium salt may be used alone, or two or more may be used in combination. Similarly, it is preferable to select a similar counter anion for the monovalent ions sodium and potassium. As with lithium salts, magnesium salts are preferably magnesium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (Mg(N(SOCF))) and magnesium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (Mg(N(SOF)). Magnesium salts may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Similarly, it is preferable to select a similar counter anion for calcium, which is a divalent ion.

[0104] The content of the metal salt is preferably 5 to 40 parts by mass, more preferably 7 to 20 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the polymer in the first polymer. When the content of the metal salt is within this range, the metal salt is well compatible with the polymer and does not precipitate, and high ionic conductivity is obtained.

[0105] The first polymer is preferably a cured product of an electrolyte solution. The electrolyte solution may be, for example, a mixture of the following materials: Polyether mono(meth)acrylate At least one selected from the group consisting of polyether di(meth)acrylate and polyether tri(meth)acrylate At least one selected from the group consisting of imidazolium-based ionic compounds having an unsaturated reactive functional group, pyridinium-based ionic compounds having an unsaturated reactive functional group, and ammonium-based ionic compounds having an unsaturated reactive functional group, and / or at least one selected from the group consisting of compounds having an unsaturated reactive functional group, an anionic functional group having a fluorinated sulfonylimide group or a perfluoroalkylsulfonylimide group, and a cation.

[0106] When the first polymer is used as the bulk electrolyte layer, if a metal salt is used as the supporting electrolyte, it is preferable to mix the metal salt into the electrolyte solution. If necessary, the electrolyte solution may contain a known polymerization initiator, such as a photopolymerization initiator, or a known organic solvent such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone or methyl ethyl ketone.

[0107] <Liquid electrolyte> The bulk electrolyte layer may contain a liquid electrolyte, such as an ionic liquid or a non-aqueous electrolyte solution, as long as the effects of the present disclosure are not impaired and safety at high temperatures is not impaired.

[0108] Specific examples of ionic liquids include the following combinations of cations and anions: The cation may be at least one selected from the group consisting of quaternary ammonium, imidazolium, pyridinium, pyrrolidinium, and piperidinium. The anion may be at least one selected from the group consisting of a fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anion, a fluorosulfonylimide anion, a fluoroalkylsulfonate anion, a fluorosulfonate anion, a fluoroalkylcarboxylate anion, a fluoroalkylmethide anion, a fluoroborate anion, a fluorophosphate anion, a dicyanamide anion, a thiocyanate anion, a bisoxalatoborate anion, a perchlorate anion, and derivatives thereof.

[0109] A non-aqueous electrolyte is a liquid in which approximately 1 mol of a metal salt is dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent. Examples of the non-aqueous solvent include ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, and ethyl methyl carbonate. Examples of the lithium salt include LiPF6, LiBF4, and LiClO4.

[0110] Although the inclusion of a liquid electrolyte may improve ionic conductivity, in order to avoid a decrease in mechanical strength at high temperatures, the amount of liquid electrolyte is preferably, for example, 10 parts by mass or less, 5 parts by mass or less, 1 part by mass or less, or 0.5 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the polymer contained in the polymer electrolyte.

[0111] The bulk electrolyte layer may optionally contain a non-conductive filler such as silica, quartz powder, titanium oxide, zinc oxide, or calcium carbonate. By adding these non-conductive fillers to the electrolyte layer-forming coating material, they function as a film-forming aid when the coating material is applied in the electrolyte layer-forming process. The content of such non-conductive fillers is preferably 0.1 to 10 parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the polymer forming the electrolyte layer.

[0112] The bulk electrolyte layer may contain a conductive filler, if necessary, within a range that does not impair the effects of the present disclosure. Examples of the conductive filler include conductive fine particles such as carbon black, zinc oxide, tin oxide, and titanium oxide.

[0113] (Method for forming bulk electrolyte layer) The method for forming the bulk electrolyte layer is not particularly limited. For example, the above-mentioned materials are mixed by a known method to obtain an electrolyte solution for forming the bulk electrolyte layer. The electrolyte solution is applied by a known application method such as bar coating, spin coating, or roll coating, and then the polymer material contained in the electrolyte solution is polymerized by a known means such as UV to form the bulk electrolyte layer. The bulk electrolyte layer can be formed at a desired position, such as on a positive electrode or a negative electrode. The thickness of the bulk electrolyte layer is preferably 5.0 μm or more and 100.0 μm or less.

[0114] <Second Polymer> The second polymer contains a urethane resin to which a cationic functional group is bonded. Therefore, the second polymer has a highly polar structure. This reduces the polarity difference between the second polymer and the metal salt contained as a supporting electrolyte in the positive electrode layer, making it difficult for the metal salt to precipitate from the second polymer. As a result, the content of the metal salt as a supporting electrolyte contained in the polymer electrolyte layer can be increased. On the other hand, the anions paired with the cationic functional groups in the urethane resin structure also interact with the metal cations contained as the supporting electrolyte, hindering ion migration. This was expected to result in a decrease in ionic conductivity. However, an unexpected effect of improved ionic conductivity was observed. This is thought to be due to the presence of cationic functional groups in the urethane resin structure, which interact with the anions of the supporting electrolyte, improving the dissociation rate of the metal salt contained as the supporting electrolyte. The effect of improving this dissociation rate surpassed the effect of the anions present in the urethane resin structure in inhibiting cation migration, resulting in the improvement in ionic conductivity.

[0115] The urethane resin according to the present disclosure includes a urethane resin having a cationic functional group bonded thereto, and preferably has a three-dimensional crosslinked structure. The method for obtaining a urethane resin having a three-dimensional crosslinked structure is not particularly limited, but it can be obtained, for example, by reacting an ionic compound having a functional group, such as a hydroxyl group, that can react with an isocyanate group with an isocyanate compound, such as polyisocyanate. Known polyols can also be used. Furthermore, it can also be obtained by reacting a urethane prepolymer, described below, with a polyol and an ionic compound.

[0116] The polyol is not particularly limited, but is preferably a polyol having at least two hydroxyl groups. For example, at least one selected from the group consisting of polyether polyol, polyester polyol, polycaprolactone polyol, polycarbonate polyol, polyolefin polyol, and acrylic polyol can be used. Among these, polyether polyol is preferred from the viewpoint of metal ion mobility. Furthermore, when an isocyanate compound having two isocyanate groups is used as the isocyanate compound described below, the polyol is preferably a polyol having at least three hydroxyl groups.

[0117] Examples of polyether polyols include diol and triol types of polyethylene glycol, diol and triol types of polypropylene glycol, poly1,4-butanediol, poly1,5-pentanediol, polyneopentyl glycol, poly3-methyl-1,4-butanediol, poly3-methyl-1,5-pentanediol, poly1,6- At least one selected from the group consisting of hexanediol, poly-1,8-octanediol, poly-1,9-nonanediol, poly-1,4-butanediol-3-methyl-1,4-butanediol copolymer, and diol and triol types of polyethylene glycol-propylene glycol copolymer can be used.

[0118] When a polyethylene glycol-propylene glycol copolymer is used as the polyol, the molar ratio of polyethylene glycol structure:polypropylene glycol structure is preferably 90:10 to 50:50, and particularly preferably 80:20 to 90:10. When the molar ratio of ethylene glycol structure:propylene glycol structure is within this range, the mobility of metal ions due to polyethylene glycol can be maintained at a high level, and inhibition of metal ion migration due to crystallization of the polymer can be easily suppressed.

[0119] The number-average molecular weight of the polyol is preferably 1,000 to 10,000, and particularly preferably 3,000 to 5,000. If the number-average molecular weight is less than 1,000, the mechanical strength will be excellent, but the distance between crosslinking points will be short, resulting in a high crosslinking density, which tends to reduce the mobility of metal ions. If the number-average molecular weight is 10,000 or more, the number of crosslinking points will be too small, resulting in a low crosslinking density, which makes it difficult for the polymer to exert its effect of stabilizing metal ions, and thus tends to reduce the mobility of metal ions. A number-average molecular weight in the range of 1,000 to 10,000 can easily ensure mechanical strength while maintaining ion mobility. Furthermore, a number-average molecular weight in the range of 3,000 to 5,000 is more preferable because crystallization at low temperatures due to interactions between polyols is less likely to occur, improving ion mobility at low temperatures.

[0120] The degree of development of the crosslink density of the urethane resin can be confirmed by the volume swelling ratio of the second polymer, which is a polymer electrolyte, measured by the methyl ethyl ketone immersion method. The volume swelling ratio of the second polymer measured by the methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) immersion method is preferably 30.0 to 100.0%. When the volume swelling ratio of the second polymer is 100.0% or less, a decrease in mechanical strength due to low crosslink density is unlikely to occur. Furthermore, when the volume swelling ratio is 30.0% or more, an ion migration inhibition effect due to high crosslink density is unlikely to occur. As a result, it is preferable because both ion mobility and mechanical strength can be achieved at high levels. The volume swelling ratio of the second polymer is more preferably 30.0 to 80.0%, and even more preferably 40.0 to 80.0%.

[0121] The isocyanate compound is not particularly limited, but is preferably an isocyanate compound having at least two isocyanate groups. Examples of suitable isocyanate compounds include aliphatic polyisocyanates such as ethylene diisocyanate and 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI); alicyclic polyisocyanates such as isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), cyclohexane 1,3-diisocyanate, and cyclohexane 1,4-diisocyanate; and aromatic isocyanates such as 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate (TDI), 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate, 4,4-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate (polymeric MDI), xylylene diisocyanate, and naphthalene diisocyanate, as well as copolymers, isocyanurates, TMP adducts, biurets, and block derivatives thereof. These isocyanate compounds can be used alone or in combination. Among these, it is preferable to include at least one selected from the group consisting of 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate, 4,4-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, and polymeric MDI, and it is more preferable to include at least one selected from the group consisting of polymeric MDI and 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate. When a polyol having two hydroxyl groups (that is, a diol type) is used as the polyol, the isocyanate compound is preferably an isocyanate compound having at least three isocyanate groups, such as polymeric MDI.

[0122] Among the above, polymeric MDI is preferred. Polymeric MDI is a mixture of monomeric MDI and high molecular weight polyisocyanate, and is represented by the following formula (A): n in formula (A) is preferably 0 or more and 4 or less. Commercially available polymeric MDI may be used, and examples thereof include Millionate MR series (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation) such as Millionate MR200 (trade name). [ka]

[0123] Alternatively, a urethane prepolymer obtained by reacting a polyol such as the polyether polyol described above with the isocyanate compound described above may be used as the isocyanate compound. The urethane prepolymer has at least one isocyanate group and a polyether structure. When the urethane prepolymer is an isocyanate compound, the content of the isocyanate compound used in synthesizing the urethane prepolymer is preferably 1.0 to 200.0 parts by mass, more preferably 5.0 to 100.0 parts by mass, even more preferably 10.0 to 50.0 parts by mass, particularly preferably 10.0 to 40.0 parts by mass, and even more preferably 10.0 to 30.0 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of polyol. When the urethane prepolymer is an isocyanate compound, the isocyanate content in the urethane prepolymer is preferably 1.0 to 5.0 mass%, more preferably 1.5 to 3.5 mass%. When the isocyanate content is within the above range, it becomes easier to control the crosslink density.

[0151] As the nitrogen-containing aliphatic heterocyclic structure in formula (15), the cationic nitrogen-containing aliphatic heterocyclic structures described in the above section on cation structures can be used, and among these, a pyrrolidinium cation is preferred.

The urethane resin preferably has an ethylene oxide structure represented by the following formula (8) between adjacent first and second urethane bonds. It is more preferable that the urethane resin further has a propylene oxide structure represented by the following formula (9) between the first and second urethane bonds. By including these structures in the urethane resin, the crystallinity of the polymer main chain is suppressed even if the molecular weight between crosslinking points is large, and the inhibition of metal ion migration, particularly at low temperatures, is more likely to be suppressed. This makes it easier to improve ionic conductivity and rate characteristics. [ka]

[0159] It is more preferable that the urethane resin has a structure represented by the following formula (16). When the urethane resin has the structure represented by the following formula (16), the crystallinity of the polymer main chain is suppressed, and the inhibition of lithium ion migration, particularly at low temperatures, is more easily suppressed. As a result, the ionic conductivity and rate characteristics are more likely to be improved. [ka] In formula (16), m and n are the average number of moles added, and each independently represents a natural number of 1 or more, satisfying n≦m≦9n. m is preferably 1 to 110, and more preferably 34 to 102. n is preferably 1 to 55, and more preferably 5 to 43.

[0160] The structure represented by formula (16) can be obtained, for example, by using a polyether polyol obtained by ring-opening polymerization of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide. In addition, the arrangement of the ethylene oxide structure represented by (-CH-CH-O-) and the propylene oxide structure represented by (-CH-CH(CH)-O-) in formula (16) may be a block copolymer or a random copolymer, preferably a random copolymer.

[0161] The structure of the urethane resin can be confirmed by analysis using known means such as pyrolysis GC / MS, TF-IR, and NMR.

[0162] (anionic structure) The urethane resin contained in the second polymer may contain an anion, such as a fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anion, a fluorosulfonylimide anion, a fluoroalkylsulfonate anion, a fluorosulfonate anion, a fluoroalkylcarboxylate anion, a fluoroalkylmethide anion, a fluoroborate anion, a fluorophosphate anion, a dicyanamide anion, a thiocyanate anion, a bisoxalatoborate anion, a perchlorate anion, or a derivative thereof.

[0163] Specific examples of the fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anion include bis(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl imide anions. Examples of the fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anions include fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anions having a fluoroalkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as the bis(pentafluoroethanesulfonyl)imide anion, bis(heptafluoropropanesulfonyl)imide anion, bis(nonafluorobutanesulfonyl)imide anion, bis(dodecafluoropentanesulfonyl)imide anion, and bis(perfluorohexanesulfonyl)imide anion, and cyclic fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anions such as N,N-hexafluoropropane-1,3-disulfonylimide.

[0164] A specific example of the fluorosulfonylimide anion is a bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide anion. Specific examples of the fluoroalkylsulfonate anion include trifluoromethanesulfonate anion, fluoromethanesulfonate anion, perfluoroethanesulfonate anion, perfluoropropanesulfonate anion, perfluorobutanesulfonate anion, perfluoropentanesulfonate anion, perfluorohexanesulfonate anion, and perfluorooctanesulfonate anion. Specific examples of the fluoroalkyl carboxylate anion include a trifluoroacetate anion, a perfluoropropionate anion, a perfluorobutyrate anion, a perfluorovalerate anion, and a perfluorocaproate anion. Specific examples of the fluoroalkyl methide anion include fluorinated alkylsulfonyl methide anions such as tris(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)methide anion, tris(perfluoroethanesulfonyl)methide anion, tris(perfluoropropanesulfonyl)methide anion, tris(perfluorobutanesulfonyl)methide anion, tris(perfluoropentanesulfonyl)methide anion, tris(perfluorohexanesulfonyl)methide anion, and tris(perfluorooctanesulfonyl)methide anion.

[0165] A specific example of the fluoroborate anion is tetrafluoroborate anion. A specific example of the fluorophosphate anion is hexafluorophosphate anion.

[0166] Among these anions, at least one selected from the group consisting of a fluoroalkylsulfonylimide anion, a fluorosulfonylimide anion, a fluoroborate anion, a dicyanamide anion, and a thiocyanate anion is particularly preferred because it reduces the decrease in conductivity in a low-temperature environment. It is especially preferred that the second polymer contains at least one anion selected from the group consisting of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide anion, bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide anion, trifluoromethanesulfonate anion, tetrafluoroborate anion, hexafluorophosphate anion, dicyanamide anion, thiocyanate anion, and bisoxalatoborate anion.

[0167] The binder contained in the positive electrode layer contains a metal salt, and the metal salt contained in the binder is selected in the same manner as that contained in the bulk electrolyte layer described above. The content of the metal salt in the binder is preferably 5 to 40 parts by mass, more preferably 7 to 20 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the polymer in the second polymer. When the content of the metal salt is within this range, the metal salt is well compatible with the polymer and does not precipitate, and high ionic conductivity is obtained.

[0168] (Method for manufacturing solid secondary batteries) Solid-state secondary batteries are manufactured using known cell methods such as laminated cell type, coin cell type, and pressurized cell type. The laminate cell type will be explained below as an example.

[0169] A laminate is obtained in which a positive electrode, bulk electrolyte, and negative electrode are disposed between a positive electrode current collector and a negative electrode current collector. Electrode tabs are welded to the positive electrode and negative electrode current collectors. The laminate, in which the positive electrode current collector, positive electrode, bulk electrolyte, negative electrode, and negative electrode current collector are stacked in this order, is wrapped in aluminum laminate film and sealed under reduced pressure using a vacuum packaging machine. The ends of the electrode tabs are exposed outside the laminate film, and the tabs and the aluminum laminate film are sealed in a state where they are bonded by thermocompression. After sealing, if necessary, pressure may be applied using an isostatic pressure device or the like. In addition to the above laminate, other layers such as elastic materials or resin materials may be stacked within the aluminum laminate film for purposes such as strength and formability. A bipolar type in which multiple laminates are stacked may also be used. [Example]

The first polymer solution was mixed with a metal salt required as a supporting electrolyte in the bulk electrolyte layer, and the cured first polymer solution was used as a mixed solution that functions as the bulk electrolyte. Specifically, the following materials were mixed and stirred to prepare the first polymer solution. Polyether monoacrylate a-1: 95.0 parts by mass Polyether diacrylate b-1: 5.0 parts by mass Ionic compound i-1: 10.0 parts by mass Lithium salt (lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.)): 2.0 parts by mass Initiator Omnirad184 (IGM Resins BV): 2.0 parts by mass Next, methyl ethyl ketone (hereinafter referred to as MEK) was added so that the total solid content ratio became 60% by mass, and then the mixture was mixed by motor stirring to prepare a first polymer solution.

[0195] (Measurement of Volume Swelling Ratio of First Polymer by MEK Immersion Method) A test piece used to measure the volume swelling ratio of the first polymer by the MEK immersion method was prepared as follows. A predetermined amount of the first polymer solution was added to an aluminum mold with a fluororesin coating on the surface to give a film thickness of 200 μm, then placed on a sunflower stand and dried until the viscosity increased to the point where the film surface did not flow, and then placed on a horizontal stand and dried at 60°C for 2 hours. Next, a high-pressure mercury UV irradiation device (product name: Handy 1000, manufactured by Mario Network) was used to irradiate the air with an integrated light dose of 5000 mJ / cm. 2 The surface of the film was irradiated with UV light so that the first polymer was crosslinked and cured. After curing, the electrolyte membrane was left in an environment of 23°C and 40% RH for 24 hours, and then peeled off from the aluminum mold to prepare a sheet with a thickness of 200 μm. The obtained sheet of the first polymer was cut into a 50 mm × 50 mm piece and left in an environment of 23°C and 40% RH for 24 hours to prepare a test piece.

[0198] (Measurement of the volume swelling ratio of the second polymer by MEK immersion method) A test piece used to measure the volume swelling ratio of the second polymer by the MEK immersion method was prepared as follows. A predetermined amount of the second polymer solution was added to an aluminum mold with a fluororesin coating on its surface to give a film thickness of 200 μm.The mold was then placed on a sunflower stand and dried until the viscosity increased to the point where the film surface did not flow.Then, the mold was placed on a horizontal stand and dried at 30°C for 10 hours. Next, the electrolyte solution was crosslinked and cured by heating at 120°C for 1 hour. After curing, the electrolyte membrane was left in an environment of 23°C and 40% RH for 24 hours, and then peeled off from the aluminum mold to prepare a sheet with a thickness of 200 μm. The obtained second polymer sheet was cut into 50 mm x 50 mm and left in an environment of 23°C and 40% RH for 24 hours to prepare a test piece.

[0199] First, the initial weight in air (W1) and the initial weight in water (W2) were measured in an environment of 23°C and 40% humidity. Next, the test piece after the initial weight measurement was immersed in MEK at 23°C for 48 hours. Immediately after removing the test piece from MEK, the MEK on the surface was wiped off with a nonwoven fabric, and the test piece was placed in a pre-weighed weighing bottle, and the weight after immersion in air (W3) and the weight after immersion in water (W4) were measured. The volume swelling ratio after immersion in MEK was calculated using the following formula. Volume swelling rate (%) = ((W3-W4)-(W1-W2)) / (W1-W2) x 100 W1: Initial weight in air W2: Initial weight in water W3: Weight after immersion in air W4: Weight after immersion in water

The total thickness of the resulting negative electrode was 70μm. A 5mm-wide copper tab with nickel plating on one unlaminated edge was attached to the negative electrode.

[0201] (Preparation of positive electrode) 100 parts by mass of lithium cobalt oxide (manufactured by Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) was mixed with 18 parts by mass of a second polymer solution (solid content 50%) and 5 parts by mass of Denka Black Li-100 (manufactured by Denka Co., Ltd.) as a conductive additive, and 40 parts by mass of N-methylpyrrolidone was added and mixed and stirred. Next, the obtained slurry was applied to one side of a 15 mm x 25 mm, 20 μm thick rolled aluminum foil. The coating was completed, leaving a 10 mm uncoated edge, and then heated at 120°C for one hour to cure. After curing, the electrode was pressed to obtain a positive electrode with a thickness of 80 μm. A 5 mm wide aluminum tab was attached to one of the uncoated edges of the positive electrode.
