Abstract

A nonaqueous electrolyte composition containing an electrolyte salt, a nonaqueous solvent and a compound having a phosphorus-hydrogen bond or a phosphorus-carbon bond is provided. Also provided is a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery including: a cathode and an anode having a material capable of occluding and releasing lithium ions as a cathode active material and an anode active material, respectively; a nonaqueous electrolyte composition; a separator; and an outer package member for housing the anode, the cathode, the nonaqueous electrolyte composition and the separator. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition includes an electrolyte salt, a nonaqueous solvent and a compound having a phosphorus-hydrogen bond or a phosphorus-carbon bond.

Claims (40)

1. A nonaqueous electrolyte composition comprising:
