Abstract

A lithium ion secondary battery includes a positive electrode comprising a composite lithium oxide; a negative electrode capable of charge and discharge; a separator; and a non-aqueous electrolyte including a non-aqueous solvent and a solute dissolved therein. The separator includes at least one heat-resistant porous film and at least one shut-down layer. A porous membrane is bonded to a surface of at least one selected from the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and the porous membrane comprises an inorganic oxide filler and a binder.

Claims (8)

1 . A lithium ion secondary battery comprising: a positive electrode comprising a composite lithium oxide; a negative electrode capable of charge and discharge; a separator; and a non-aqueous electrolyte comprising a non-aqueous solvent and a solute dissolved therein,

wherein said separator comprises at least one heat-resistant porous film and at least one shut-down layer,

a porous membrane is bonded to a surface of at least one selected from said positive electrode and said negative electrode, and

said porous membrane comprises an inorganic oxide filler and a binder.

2 . The lithium ion secondary battery in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said heat-resistant porous film comprises a heat-resistant resin with a heat deformation temperature of 200° C. or more.

3 . The lithium ion secondary battery in accordance with claim 2 , wherein said heat-resistant resin comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of polyimide, aramid, and polyphenylene sulfide.

4 . The lithium ion secondary battery in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said shut-down layer comprises a thermoplastic porous film, and said thermoplastic porous film becomes substantially non-porous at a shut-down temperature of 80° C. or more and 180° C. or less.

5 . The lithium ion secondary battery in accordance with claim 1 , wherein a ratio of said filler to a total of said filler and said binder is 50% by weight or more and 99% by weight or less, and said filler comprises alumina or magnesia.
