[0001] The present invention relates to a nonaqueous electrolyte and a nonaqueous electrolyte battery, and more particularly to a nonaqueous electrolyte containing a specific amount of a specific compound, and a nonaqueous electrolyte battery using this nonaqueous electrolyte. [Background technology]
[0002] BACKGROUND ART Non-aqueous electrolyte batteries such as lithium secondary batteries have been put to practical use in a wide range of applications, such as power sources for so-called small consumer devices such as mobile phones such as smartphones and laptop computers, and on-board power sources for driving electric vehicles and the like.
[0003] As a means for improving the battery characteristics of non-aqueous electrolyte batteries, many studies have been conducted in the fields of active materials for positive and negative electrodes and additives for non-aqueous electrolytes.

[0006] In recent years, the capacity of lithium batteries has been increasing rapidly for use as onboard power sources for electric vehicles and mobile phones such as smartphones, and the proportion of voids within the battery has become smaller than before.As a result, the amount of gas generated when lithium batteries are placed in a high-temperature environment and the swelling of the electrodes after repeated charging and discharging are fatal drawbacks.

The amount of gas generated is the amount of gas generated by decomposition of the solvent and additives, which are components of the electrolyte solution, on the electrodes. A second object of the present invention is to provide a non-aqueous electrolyte battery in which battery swelling is suppressed.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention
[0012] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. The following embodiments are examples (representative examples) of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited thereto. Further, the present invention can be arbitrarily modified and implemented without departing from the gist thereof. In this specification, the description represented by "~" represents a range including the numbers described before and after it. Also, in this specification, descriptions such as "independently" or "independently" used when explaining two or more objects together are used in the sense that these two or more objects may be the same or different.
[0013] <A. First Embodiment> <A1. Non-aqueous Electrolyte> The non-aqueous electrolyte according to the first aspect (embodiment) of the present invention contains a compound represented by the following general formula (1). By using a non-aqueous electrolyte containing a compound represented by the general formula (1), the mechanism for enhancing the suppression of the amount of gas generation during high-temperature storage of the non-aqueous electrolyte battery is not clear, but is presumed as follows. Solution Although the mechanism for enhancing the suppression of the amount of gas generation during high-temperature storage of the non-aqueous electrolyte battery is not clear, it is presumed as follows.
[0014] The compound represented by the general formula (1) has a divalent or trivalent atomic group containing at least one atom selected from an oxygen atom, a nitrogen atom, a sulfur atom, a phosphorus atom, and a boron atom in the molecule. Since this atomic group is a polar group, the compound represented by the formula (1) tends to interact with carbon or the like on the surface of the negative electrode active material and localize in the vicinity of the surface of the negative electrode active material. In addition, the compound represented by the general formula (1) has a structure in which two or more fluorine (F) atoms are bonded to a silicon (Si) atom in the molecule. When two or more F atoms are bonded to the Si atom, the electron density of the Si atom is significantly reduced compared to the case of one F atom. As a result, the reaction activity of the Si atom of the compound represented by the general formula (1) is enhanced, so that, for example, electrochemical reduction and reaction with the reduction decomposition product of the electrolytic solution proceed easily. Thereby, an insulating film is formed on the negative electrode active material, and for example, when Si is used for the negative electrode active material, the surface is suitably modified. Further, it is presumed that the compound represented by the general formula (1) is also concentrated on the surface of the positive electrode, reacts with electrochemical oxidation and the oxidation decomposition product of the electrolytic solution, and forms an insulating film similarly to the negative electrode. From the above, the inventor believes that the compound represented by the general formula (1) contributes to the suppression of the gas generation amount during high-temperature storage.

[0116] In particular, in the nonaqueous electrolyte solution according to this embodiment, the use of one or more selected from unsaturated cyclic carbonates and cyclic carbonates having fluorine atoms is preferred in that gas generation during initial conditioning is further suppressed, resulting in a battery that is less prone to swelling.
[0117] The nonaqueous electrolyte may also contain, as an auxiliary agent, a phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond, a salt having an FSO2 skeleton, or an oxalate. From the viewpoint of favorably forming a composite coating together with the compound represented by general formula (1), it is preferable for the electrolyte to contain one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of a phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond, a salt having an FSO2 skeleton, and an oxalate. From the viewpoint of suppressing the amount of gas generation during storage at charge and an increase in internal resistance, it is preferable for the electrolyte to contain a phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond and / or a salt having an FSO2 skeleton.

The content of the fluorophosphate (total amount when two or more types are used) can be 0.001% by mass or more, preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, and can be 10% by mass or less, preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less, based on 100% by mass of the non-aqueous electrolyte solution. If the fluorophosphate content is within this range, the characteristics of the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly the durability characteristics or continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the mechanism behind this is unclear, it is thought that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additive on the electrode.
[0120] The mass ratio of the compound represented by the general formula (1) to the phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond (total amount when two or more types are used) is typically 1 / 100 or more, preferably 10 / 100 or more, more preferably 20 / 100 or more, and even more preferably 25 / 100 or more, and typically 10,000 / 100 or less, preferably 500 / 100 or less, more preferably 100 / 100, particularly preferably 80 / 100 or less, and most preferably 40 / 100 or less.

While the underlying mechanism is unclear, it is believed that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additives on the electrode.
[0121] When LiPF6 is contained in a non-aqueous electrolyte, the mass ratio of the phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond (total amount if two or more types are present) to the LiPF6 content (fluorophosphate / LiPF6) is typically 0.00005 or more, preferably 0.001 or more, more preferably 0.01 or more, even more preferably 0.02 or more, and particularly preferably 0.025 or more, and typically 1.0 or less, preferably 0.5 or less, more preferably 0.4 or less, and even more preferably 0.35 or less.

While the underlying mechanism is unclear, it is believed that mixing at this ratio minimizes the decomposition side reaction of LiPF6 in non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries. The content of phosphates with P=O and PF bonds is measured by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. NMR analysis is usually performed, but when the solvent peaks make it difficult to identify other compounds, ion chromatography (IC) analysis is also performed.
[0122] (Salt with FSO2 skeleton) The salt having an FSO2 skeleton used in this embodiment is not particularly limited as long as it is a salt having an FSO2 skeleton in the molecule. Counter cations of salts having an FSO2 skeleton include alkali metals such as lithium, sodium, and potassium, with lithium being preferred.

If the content of the salt having an FSO2 skeleton is within this range, the characteristics of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly its durability and continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the mechanism behind this is unclear, it is thought that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additive on the electrode.
[0124] The mass ratio of the compound represented by general formula (1) to the salt having an FSO2 skeleton (total amount when two or more types are used) is typically 1 / 100 or more, preferably 10 / 100 or more, more preferably 20 / 100 or more, and even more preferably 25 / 100 or more, and typically 10,000 / 100 or less, preferably 500 / 100 or less, more preferably 100 / 100, particularly preferably 80 / 100 or less, and most preferably 40 / 100 or less. This mass ratio range significantly improves the characteristics of nonaqueous electrolyte secondary batteries, particularly their durability and continuous charge characteristics. While the underlying mechanism is unclear, it is believed that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additives on the electrode.
[0125] When LiPF6 is contained in a non-aqueous electrolyte, the mass ratio of the salt having an FSO2 skeleton (total amount when two or more types are used) to the content of LiPF6 (salt having an FSO2 skeleton / LiPF6) is typically 0.00005 or more, preferably 0.001 or more, more preferably 0.01 or more, even more preferably 0.02 or more, and particularly preferably 0.025 or more, and typically 1.0 or less, preferably 0.5 or less, more preferably 0.4 or less, and even more preferably 0.35 or less. This mass ratio range significantly improves the characteristics of non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries, particularly their durability and continuous charge characteristics. While the underlying mechanism is unclear, it is believed that mixing at this ratio minimizes the decomposition side reaction of LiPF6 in non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries. The content of salts with an FSO2 skeleton is measured by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. NMR analysis is usually performed, but when the solvent peak makes it difficult to identify other compounds, ion chromatography (IC) analysis is also performed.
[0126] (oxalate) The oxalate is not particularly limited as long as it is a compound having at least one oxalic acid skeleton in the molecule. Counter cations of the oxalate include alkali metals such as lithium, sodium, and potassium, with lithium being preferred. For example, oxalatoborate salts such as lithium bis(oxalato)borate and lithium difluorooxalatoborate; oxalate phosphate salts such as lithium tetrafluorooxalate phosphate, lithium difluorobis(oxalate)phosphate, and lithium tris(oxalate)phosphate; etc. In particular, from the viewpoint of further enhancing the effects of suppressing gas generation during high-temperature storage as well as improving charge / discharge rate characteristics and impedance characteristics, oxalatoborate salts are preferred, and lithium bis(oxalato)borate is more preferred.
[0127] One type of oxalate may be used alone, or two or more types may be used in any combination and ratio. The content of the oxalate (total amount when two or more types are used) can be 0.001% by mass or more, preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, and can be 10% by mass or less, preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less, based on 100% by mass of the non-aqueous electrolyte solution. If the content of the oxalate is within this range, the characteristics of the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly the durability characteristics or continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the mechanism behind this is unclear, it is thought that by mixing at this ratio, side reactions of the additive on the electrode can be minimized.
[0128] The mass ratio of the compound represented by the general formula (1) to the oxalate (total amount when two or more types are present) is typically 1 / 100 or more, preferably 10 / 100 or more, more preferably 20 / 100 or more, and even more preferably 25 / 100 or more, and typically 10,000 / 100 or less, preferably 500 / 100 or less, more preferably 100 / 100, particularly preferably 80 / 100 or less, and most preferably 40 / 100 or less. This mass ratio range significantly improves the characteristics of non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries, particularly their durability and continuous charging characteristics. While the underlying mechanism is unclear, it is believed that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additives on the electrode.
[0129] When LiPF6 is present in a non-aqueous electrolyte, the mass ratio of the oxalate (total amount in the case of two or more kinds) to the content of LiPF6 (oxalate / LiPF6) is usually 0.00005 or more, preferably 0.001 or more, more preferably 0.01 or more, still more preferably 0.02 or more, particularly preferably 0.025 or more, and usually 1.0 or less, preferably 0.5 or less, more preferably 0.4 or less, still more preferably 0.35 or less. If the mass ratio is within this range, the characteristics of the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly the durability characteristics or continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the principle is not clear, it is considered that by mixing at this ratio, the decomposition side reaction of LiPF6 in the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery is minimized.
[0130] The content of the oxalate is determined by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. Usually, NMR analysis is performed. However, when it is difficult to assign other compounds due to the peak of the solvent, ion chromatography (IC) analysis is also performed. Among the additives, some can be listed as salts as electrolytes. In that case, it is discriminated by the concentration range. For example, when a certain fluorinated inorganic salt is contained at 10% by mass in the non-aqueous electrolyte, it is discriminated as an electrolyte, and when a certain salt having an oxalic acid skeleton is contained at 0.5% by mass, it can be discriminated as an additive.
[0131] The total content of the auxiliary agents is usually 0.001% by mass or more, preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, still more preferably 0.2% by mass or more, and also usually 10% by mass or less, preferably 8% by mass or less, more preferably 5% by mass or less in 100% by mass of the non-aqueous electrolyte (with respect to the total amount of the non-aqueous electrolyte). When two or more kinds of auxiliary agents are used in combination, it is preferable that the total content satisfies the above range.

In this case, the non-aqueous electrolyte according to the present embodiment is usually used by impregnating this separator. A conventionally known separator can be used.
[0146] <B. Second Embodiment> Another embodiment of the present invention is a non-aqueous electrolyte battery, and the non-aqueous electrolyte according to the non-aqueous electrolyte battery contains a compound represented by the following general formula (4). By using a non-aqueous electrolyte containing the compound represented by the general formula (4), the non-aqueous Solution Although the mechanism for enhancing the suppression of gas generation amount during high-temperature storage of the electrolyte battery is not clear, it is presumed as follows.
[0147] <B1. Non-aqueous electrolyte> The compound represented by the general formula (4) has a divalent or trivalent atomic group having at least one atom selected from an oxygen atom, a nitrogen atom, a sulfur atom, a phosphorus atom, and a boron atom in the molecule. Since this atomic group is a polar group, the compound represented by the formula (4) interacts with carbon or the like on the surface of the negative electrode active material and tends to localize near the surface of the negative electrode active material. Further, the compound represented by the general formula (4) has a structure in which two or more fluorine (F) atoms are bonded to a silicon (Si) atom in the molecule. When two or more F atoms are bonded to the Si atom, the electron density of the Si atom is significantly lower than in the case of one F atom. As a result, the reaction activity of the Si atom of the compound represented by the general formula (4) increases, and thus, for example, an electrochemical reduction or a reaction with a reduction decomposition product of the electrolytic solution easily proceeds. Thereby, an insulating film is formed on the negative electrode active material, and for example, when Si is used for the negative electrode active material, the surface is suitably modified. Further, it is presumed that the compound represented by the general formula (4) is also concentrated on the positive electrode surface, reacts with an electrochemical oxidation or an oxidation decomposition product of the electrolytic solution, and forms an insulating film similarly to the negative electrode. Furthermore, by combining a non-aqueous electrolyte containing the compound represented by the general formula (4) with a negative electrode including a negative electrode active material containing a metal element and / or a metalloid element capable of alloying with Li, a non-aqueous electrolyte battery in which a film of the compound represented by the general formula (4) is formed on the surface of the material containing the metal element and / or the metalloid element capable of alloying with Li and swelling is suppressed can be obtained. From the above, the inventor of the present invention believes that the compound represented by the general formula (4) contributes to the suppression of the amount of gas generated during high-temperature storage.

In this case, the non-aqueous electrolyte according to this embodiment is usually impregnated into this separator and used. A conventionally known separator can be used.
[0258] <B1-2. Electrolyte> Similar to a general non-aqueous electrolyte, the non-aqueous electrolyte of this embodiment usually contains an electrolyte as its component. The electrolyte used in the non-aqueous electrolyte of this embodiment is not particularly limited as long as it is an alkali metal salt, and lithium salts such as LiBF4, LiPF6, LiN(FSO2)2, LiN(CF3SO2)2, or lithium difluorooxalatoborate can be preferably used. Also, these lithium salts can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

The addition of these auxiliary agents can suppress gas generation during initial conditioning and improve capacity retention and cycle characteristics after high-temperature storage.
[0262] In particular, in the nonaqueous electrolyte solution according to this embodiment, the use of one or more selected from unsaturated cyclic carbonates and cyclic carbonates having fluorine atoms is preferred in that gas generation during initial conditioning is further suppressed, resulting in a battery that is less prone to swelling.
[0263] The nonaqueous electrolyte solution may contain, as an auxiliary agent, a phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond, a salt having an FSO2 skeleton, or an oxalate. From the viewpoint of suitably forming a composite coating together with the compound represented by general formula (4), it is preferable to contain one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of a phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond, a salt having an FSO2 skeleton, and an oxalate. From the viewpoint of suppressing the amount of gas generation during storage at charge and an increase in internal resistance, it is preferable to contain a phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond and / or a salt having an FSO2 skeleton. The total content of compounds selected from the group consisting of phosphates having a P=O bond and a PF bond, salts having an FSO2 skeleton, and oxalates is usually 0.001% by mass or more, preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, and even more preferably 0.2% by mass or more, in 100% by mass of the non-aqueous electrolyte (relative to the total amount of the non-aqueous electrolyte), and is usually 10% by mass or less, preferably 8% by mass or less, and more preferably 5% by mass or less. When two or more types of auxiliary agents are used in combination, it is preferable that the total content satisfies the above range.
[0264] (phosphate salts with P=O and PF bonds) The phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond is not particularly limited as long as it has a P=O bond and a PF bond in the molecule. Counter cations of phosphate salts having a PF bond include alkali metals such as lithium, sodium, and potassium, with lithium being preferred. Fluorophosphates having a P=O bond include: Monofluorophosphates such as Li2PO3F; Difluorophosphates such as LiPO2F2, NaPO2F2, KPO2F2; etc. In particular, difluorophosphates are preferred, and lithium difluorophosphate is more preferred, from the viewpoint of further enhancing the effects of suppressing gas generation during high-temperature storage and further improving the charge / discharge rate characteristics and impedance characteristics.
[0265] The fluorophosphate may be used alone or in any combination and ratio of two or more. The content of the fluorophosphate (total amount when two or more types are used) can be 0.001% by mass or more, preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, and can be 10% by mass or less, preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less, based on 100% by mass of the non-aqueous electrolyte solution. If the fluorophosphate content is within this range, the characteristics of the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly the durability characteristics or continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the mechanism behind this is unclear, it is thought that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additive on the electrode.
[0266] The mass ratio of the compound represented by the general formula (1) to the phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond (total amount when there are two or more types) is usually 1 / 100 or more, preferably 10 / 100 or more, more preferably 20 / 100 or more, and even more preferably 25 / 100 or more, and is usually 10000 / 100 or less, preferably 500 / 100 or less, and more preferably 100 / 100. below , particularly preferably 80 / 100 or less, and most preferably 40 / 100 or less. When the mass ratio is within this range, the characteristics of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly the durability characteristics and continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the mechanism behind this is unclear, it is thought that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additives on the electrode.
[0267] When LiPF6 is contained in a non-aqueous electrolyte, the mass ratio of the phosphate having a P=O bond and a PF bond (total amount if two or more types are present) to the LiPF6 content (fluorophosphate / LiPF6) is typically 0.00005 or more, preferably 0.001 or more, more preferably 0.01 or more, even more preferably 0.02 or more, and particularly preferably 0.025 or more, and typically 1.0 or less, preferably 0.5 or less, more preferably 0.4 or less, and even more preferably 0.35 or less. This mass ratio range significantly improves the characteristics of non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries, particularly their durability and continuous charge characteristics. While the underlying mechanism is unclear, it is believed that mixing at this ratio minimizes the decomposition side reaction of LiPF6 in non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries. The content of phosphates with P=O and PF bonds is measured by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. NMR analysis is usually performed, but when the solvent peaks make it difficult to identify other compounds, ion chromatography (IC) analysis is also performed.
[0268] (Salt with FSO2 skeleton) The salt having an FSO2 skeleton used in this embodiment is not particularly limited as long as it is a salt having an FSO2 skeleton in the molecule. Counter cations of salts having an FSO2 skeleton include alkali metals such as lithium, sodium, and potassium, with lithium being preferred.

[0269] The salt having an FSO2 skeleton may be used singly or in any combination and ratio of two or more. The content of the salt having an FSO2 skeleton (total amount when two or more types are used) can be 0.001% by mass or more, preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, and can be 10% by mass or less, preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less, based on 100% by mass of the nonaqueous electrolyte. If the content of the salt having an FSO2 skeleton is within this range, the characteristics of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly its durability and continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the mechanism behind this is unclear, it is thought that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additive on the electrode.
[0270] The mass ratio of the compound represented by the general formula (1) to the salt having an FSO2 skeleton (total amount when two or more types are used) is usually 1 / 100 or more, preferably 10 / 100 or more, more preferably 20 / 100 or more, and even more preferably 25 / 100 or more, and is usually 10000 / 100 or less, preferably 500 / 100 or less, and more preferably 100 / 100. below , particularly preferably 80 / 100 or less, and most preferably 40 / 100 or less. When the mass ratio is within this range, the characteristics of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly the durability characteristics and continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the mechanism behind this is unclear, it is thought that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additives on the electrode.
[0271] When LiPF6 is contained in a non-aqueous electrolyte, the mass ratio of the salt having an FSO2 skeleton (total amount when two or more types are used) to the content of LiPF6 (salt having an FSO2 skeleton / LiPF6) is typically 0.00005 or more, preferably 0.001 or more, more preferably 0.01 or more, even more preferably 0.02 or more, and particularly preferably 0.025 or more, and typically 1.0 or less, preferably 0.5 or less, more preferably 0.4 or less, and even more preferably 0.35 or less. This mass ratio range significantly improves the characteristics of non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries, particularly their durability and continuous charge characteristics. While the underlying mechanism is unclear, it is believed that mixing at this ratio minimizes the decomposition side reaction of LiPF6 in non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries. The content of salts with an FSO2 skeleton is measured by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. NMR analysis is usually performed, but when the solvent peak makes it difficult to identify other compounds, ion chromatography (IC) analysis is also performed.

For example, oxalatoborate salts such as lithium bis(oxalato)borate and lithium difluorooxalatoborate; oxalate phosphate salts such as lithium tetrafluorooxalate phosphate, lithium difluorobis(oxalate)phosphate, and lithium tris(oxalate)phosphate; etc. In particular, from the viewpoint of further enhancing the effects of suppressing gas generation during high-temperature storage as well as improving charge / discharge rate characteristics and impedance characteristics, oxalatoborate salts are preferred, and lithium bis(oxalato)borate is more preferred.
[0273] One type of oxalate may be used alone, or two or more types may be used in any combination and ratio. The content of the oxalate (total amount when two or more types are used) can be 0.001% by mass or more, preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, and can be 10% by mass or less, preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less, based on 100% by mass of the non-aqueous electrolyte solution. If the content of the oxalate is within this range, the characteristics of the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly the durability characteristics or continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the mechanism behind this is unclear, it is thought that by mixing at this ratio, side reactions of the additive on the electrode can be minimized.
[0274] The mass ratio of the compound represented by the general formula (1) to the oxalate (total amount when two or more types are used) is usually 1 / 100 or more, preferably 10 / 100 or more, more preferably 20 / 100 or more, and even more preferably 25 / 100 or more, and is usually 10000 / 100 or less, preferably 500 / 100 or less, and more preferably 100 / 100. below , particularly preferably 80 / 100 or less, and most preferably 40 / 100 or less. When the mass ratio is within this range, the characteristics of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly the durability characteristics and continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the mechanism behind this is unclear, it is thought that mixing at this ratio minimizes side reactions of the additives on the electrode.
[0275] When LiPF6 is present in a non-aqueous electrolyte, the mass ratio of the oxalate (total amount in the case of two or more kinds) to the content of LiPF6 (oxalate / LiPF6) is usually 0.00005 or more, preferably 0.001 or more, more preferably 0.01 or more, still more preferably 0.02 or more, particularly preferably 0.025 or more, and usually 1.0 or less, preferably 0.5 or less, more preferably 0.4 or less, still more preferably 0.35 or less. If the mass ratio is within this range, the characteristics of the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, particularly the durability characteristics or continuous charging characteristics, can be significantly improved. Although the principle is not clear, it is considered that by mixing at this ratio, the decomposition side reaction of LiPF6 in the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery can be minimized.
[0276] The content of the oxalate is determined by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. Usually, NMR analysis is performed. However, when it is difficult to assign other compounds due to the peaks of the solvent, ion chromatography (IC) analysis is also performed. Among the additives, some can be listed as salts as electrolytes. In that case, it is discriminated by the concentration range. For example, when a certain fluorinated inorganic salt is contained at 10% by mass in the non-aqueous electrolyte, it is discriminated as an electrolyte, and when a certain salt having an oxalate skeleton is contained at 0.5% by mass, it can be discriminated as an additive.
[0277] The total content of the auxiliary agents is usually 0.001% by mass or more, preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.1% by mass or more, still more preferably 0.2% by mass or more, and also usually 10% by mass or less, preferably 8% by mass or less, more preferably 5% by mass or less, in 100% by mass of the non-aqueous electrolyte (with respect to the total amount of the non-aqueous electrolyte). When two or more kinds of auxiliary agents are used in combination, it is preferable that the total content satisfies the above range.

Usually, the positive electrode and the negative electrode are laminated through a porous film (separator) impregnated with the above non-aqueous electrolyte, and they are housed in a case (outer package). The shape of the non-aqueous electrolyte battery of the present embodiment is not particularly limited, and it may be any of a cylindrical shape, a rectangular shape, a laminate shape, a coin shape, a large size, etc.
[0280] <B2-2. Non-aqueous Electrolyte> As the non-aqueous electrolyte, the non-aqueous electrolyte according to the above-described present embodiment is used. In addition, within a range not departing from the gist of the present invention, it is also possible to blend and use other non-aqueous electrolytes with the above non-aqueous electrolyte.
[0281] <B2-3. Positive Electrode> The positive electrode refers to one having a current collector and a positive electrode active material layer on at least a part of the surface of the current collector. Other configurations can employ conventionally known ones. The lithium transition metal compound is a compound having a structure capable of desorbing and inserting lithium ions, and examples thereof include sulfides, phosphate compounds, silicate compounds, borate compounds, lithium transition metal composite oxides, etc. Among these, phosphate compounds or lithium transition metal composite oxides are preferred, and lithium transition metal composite oxides are more preferred. Examples of lithium transition metal composite oxides include those having a spinel structure that allows three-dimensional diffusion and those having a layered structure that allows two-dimensional diffusion of lithium ions. The lithium transition metal compound having a spinel structure is generally represented by the following composition formula (11-2). Li x2’ M3'2O4···(11-2) (In formula (11-2), x 2’ is 1≦x 2’ ≦1.5, and M3′ represents at least one transition metal element. Specifically, LiMn2O4, LiCoMnO4, LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 Examples include O4 and LiCoVO4. The lithium transition metal compound having a layered structure is generally represented by the following composition formula (12-2). Li 1+x3 M3O2···(12-2) (In formula (12-2), x3 is −0.1≦x3≦0.5, and M3 represents at least one transition metal element.) Specifically, LiCoO2, LiNiO2, LiNi 0.85 Co 0.10 Al 0.05 O2, LiNi 0.80 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 O2, LiNi 0.33 Co 0.33 Mn 0.33 O2, Li 1.05 Ni 0.33 Co 0.33 Mn 0.33 O2, LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O2, Li 1.05 Ni 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O2, LiNi 0.6 Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O2, LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 Examples include O2.
[0282] Among these, from the viewpoint of improving the battery capacity, a lithium transition metal composite oxide having a layered structure is preferred, and a lithium transition metal composite oxide represented by the following composition formula (13-2) is more preferred. Li a13 Ni b13 M13 c13 O2···(13-2) (In formula (13-2), a13, b13, and c13 are numerical values that satisfy 0.90≦a13≦1.10, 0.40≦b13≦0.98, and 0.00≦c13≦0.50, respectively, and b13+c13=1 is satisfied. M13 represents at least one element selected from the group consisting of Co, Mn, Al, Mg, Zr, Fe, Ti, and Er.) In the composition formula (13-2), b13 is preferably 0.55 or more, more preferably 0.60 or more, even more preferably 0.65 or more, particularly preferably 0.70 or more, more preferably 0.75 or more, more preferably 0.80 or more, and even more preferably 0.90 or more. Also, c13 is preferably 0.01 or more.
[0283] The positive electrode active material is not particularly limited as long as it is a lithium cobalt oxide or a transition metal oxide containing at least Ni and Co, with 50 mol % or more of the transition metals being Ni and Co, and capable of electrochemically absorbing and desorbing metal ions, but for example, a material capable of electrochemically absorbing and desorbing lithium ions is preferred, and a transition metal oxide containing lithium, at least Ni, and Co, with 60 mol % or more of the transition metals being Ni and Co is preferred. This is because Ni and Co have oxidation-reduction potentials suitable for use as positive electrode materials in secondary batteries and are suitable for high-capacity applications.
[0284] Among these, a transition metal oxide represented by the following composition formula (14-2) is preferred. Li a23 Ni b23 Co c23 M23 d23 O2···(14-2) The above composition formula ( 14-2 In the formula (I), a23, b23, c23, and d23 are numerical values within the range of 0.90≦a23≦1.10, 0.50≦b23≦0.98, 0.01≦c23<0.50, and 0.01≦d23<0.50, and satisfy b23+c23+d23=1. M23 represents at least one element selected from the group consisting of Mn, Al, Mg, Zr, Fe, Ti, and Er. In the composition formula (14-2), it is preferable that d23 satisfies the numerical value 0.1≦d23<0.5. By setting the composition ratios of Ni and Co and other metal species within the above ranges, there are advantages in that transition metals are less likely to leach out of the positive electrode, and even if they do leach out, Ni and Co have little adverse effect on the non-aqueous secondary battery. A specific example of a suitable material is LiNi 0.85 Co 0.10 Al 0.05 O2, LiNi 0.80 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 O2, LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O2, Li 1.05 Ni 0.50 Co 0.20 Mn 0.30 O2, LiNi 0.6 Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O2, LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 Examples include O2.

This slurry was evenly applied to both sides of a 21 μm thick aluminum foil, dried, and pressed to form a positive electrode.
[0339] [Preparation of negative electrode] Si microparticles with an average particle size of 50 nm were dispersed in flake graphite with an average particle size of 35 μm, and then placed in a hybridization system (manufactured by Nara Machinery Works, Ltd.). The mixture was circulated or retained within the system at a rotor rotation speed of 7000 rpm for 180 seconds to obtain a composite of Si and graphite particles. The resulting composite was mixed with coal tar pitch as an organic compound to form a carbonaceous material, so that the coverage after firing would be 16.8%, and the mixture was kneaded and dispersed using a twin-screw kneader. The resulting dispersion was introduced into a firing furnace and fired at 1000°C for 3 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere. The resulting fired material was further pulverized in a hammer mill and sieved (45 μm) to produce a negative electrode active material. The silicon content measured using the above-mentioned method was 14.0% by mass.

This battery element was inserted into a bag made of a laminate film of aluminum (40 μm thick) coated on both sides with a resin layer, with the positive and negative electrode terminals protruding, and the electrolyte solution was then poured into the bag, which was then vacuum-sealed to prepare a laminated cell nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery.
[0343] <Evaluation of non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries> [Initial conditioning] The nonaqueous electrolyte battery prepared by the above method was charged at a constant current of 0.05 C (1 C refers to the current value required for charging or discharging in 1 hour; the same applies below) for 6 hours in a constant temperature bath at 25°C, and then discharged at 0.2 C to 3.0 V.

[0344] [High temperature cycle test] After the initial conditioning, the battery thickness was measured using a micrometer (Mitutoyo, model ID-C112XB). The cells were then subjected to CC-CV charging at 0.5 C to 4.2 V in a 45°C thermostatic chamber, followed by discharging at a constant current of 0.5 C to 2.5 V. This cycle was repeated 100 times. The battery thickness was then measured in the same manner as after the initial conditioning, and the change in battery thickness due to cycle charging and discharging was determined. Table 3 below shows the percentage change in battery thickness for each example, expressed as "battery swelling," relative to the change in battery thickness for Comparative Example 2-1, which is set to 100. In other words, a "battery swelling" value below 100 indicates a smaller change in battery thickness compared to Comparative Example 2-1, while a value above 100 indicates a larger change in battery thickness compared to Comparative Example 2-1.

[0357] [Preparation of non-aqueous electrolyte] In a dry argon atmosphere, 1.2 mol / L (14.8 mass%; concentration in non-aqueous electrolyte) of thoroughly dried LiPF6 was dissolved as an electrolyte in a mixture of ethylene carbonate (EC), diethyl carbonate (DEC), and ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) (volume ratio EC:EMC:DEC = 3:4:3), and then 2.0 mass% each of vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) (concentration in non-aqueous electrolyte) was added (hereinafter referred to as Reference Electrolyte 1). 5 The compound at the content described in 4~8 The "content (mass %)" in the table is the content when the total amount of each nonaqueous electrolyte solution is taken as 100 mass %.
[0358] [Manufacturing non-aqueous electrolyte batteries] The positive electrode, negative electrode, and polyethylene separator were stacked in this order to prepare a battery element. This battery element was inserted into a bag made of a laminate film of aluminum (40 μm thick) coated on both sides with a resin layer so that the positive and negative electrode terminals protruded. The prepared nonaqueous electrolyte solution was then poured into the bag, which was then vacuum-sealed to prepare a laminated nonaqueous electrolyte battery.
[0359] <Evaluation of non-aqueous electrolyte batteries> [Initial conditioning] The nonaqueous electrolyte battery prepared by the above method was charged at a constant current of 0.05 C (1 C refers to the current value required for charging or discharging in 1 hour; the same applies below) for 6 hours in a constant temperature bath at 25°C, and then discharged at 0.2 C to 3.0 V. Subsequently, constant current-constant voltage charging (hereinafter referred to as CC-CV charging) was performed at 0.2 C to 4.1 V. After that, the battery was held at 45°C for 72 hours for aging. The battery was then discharged at 0.2 C to 3.0 V to stabilize the nonaqueous electrolyte battery. Furthermore, CC-CV charging was performed at 0.2 C to 4.2 V, and then discharged at 0.2 C to 3.0 V for initial conditioning.
[0360] [Charged storage test] After initial conditioning, the non-aqueous electrolyte battery was again CC-CV charged at 0.2C to 4.2V, and then stored at high temperature at 60°C for 2 weeks. After that, the non-aqueous electrolyte battery was allowed to cool sufficiently, and then immersed in an ethanol bath to measure the volume. The amount of gas generated was calculated from the change in volume before and after the storage test, and this was taken as the "amount of gas generated during storage after charging." 5 4 shows the amount of gas stored in the battery when the amount of gas stored in the battery in Comparative Example 4-1 is set to 100.
[0361] [Table 5]
[0362] The results of Examples 4-1 to 4-4 and Comparative Example 4-1 show that the amount of gas stored during charging can be reduced more effectively in a nonaqueous electrolyte battery manufactured using a nonaqueous electrolyte solution containing a compound having a polar group according to an embodiment of the present application than in a nonaqueous electrolyte battery manufactured using a nonaqueous electrolyte solution containing a conventional compound. Furthermore, the results of Examples 4-1 to 4-4 reveal that compounds having a carboxylic acid ester structure tend to be more effective in suppressing the amount of residue generated during storage under charge.
[0363] While the present invention has been described above with reference to specific embodiments, these embodiments are presented as examples and do not limit the scope of the present invention. Each embodiment described in this specification can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit of the invention, and can be combined with features described in other embodiments to the extent possible. < / a1> < / a1> < / a1>
