AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Sodium-ion rechargeable batteries suffer from poor cycle characteristics and low energy density, with gas generation during charging and discharging being a significant issue.

Method used

A sodium-ion secondary battery design incorporating a non-aqueous electrolyte with a specific ratio of cyclic carbonate to sodium salt, combined with ether and optionally a diluent, to suppress gas generation and enhance cycle characteristics.

Benefits of technology

The battery effectively reduces gas generation during charging and discharging while maintaining or improving cycle characteristics, achieving performance comparable to or better than batteries using mixed solvents of cyclic carbonate and chain carbonate.

Abstract

A sodium-ion secondary battery 100 according to the present disclosure is provided with: a positive electrode 5 that contains a positive electrode active material capable of occluding and releasing sodium ions; a negative electrode 6 that contains a negative electrode active material capable of occluding and releasing sodium ions; and a nonaqueous electrolytic solution that contains a sodium salt, an ether, and a cyclic carbonate. In the nonaqueous electrolytic solution, the ratio of the substance amount of the cyclic carbonate to the substance amount of the sodium salt is 0.1-1.8.
