Abstract

A nonaqueous electrolyte composition includes: a nonaqueous solvent; an electrolyte salt; a matrix resin; a filler; and a surfactant.

Claims (47)

1. A nonaqueous electrolyte composition comprising:

a nonaqueous solvent;

an electrolyte salt;

a matrix resin;

a filler; and

a surfactant that disperses the filler within the nonaqueous electrolyte composition wherein the filler is a ceramic powder filler comprising at least an aluminum oxide, and the aluminum oxide is an aluminum oxide having an alpha-conversion rate of 80% or more.

2. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 1 , wherein

the surfactant is a surfactant containing a hydrocarbon based surfactant.

3. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 2 , wherein

the hydrocarbon based surfactant is nonionic.

4. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 1 , wherein

the surfactant is contained in a proportion of from 0.3 to 5.0 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the filler.

5. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 1 , wherein,

in the filler, a concentration of the total sum of iron, copper, silicon, sodium, magnesium and zirconium, provided that in the case where the ceramic powder contains zirconium oxide, zirconium is excluded and that in the case where the ceramic power contains magnesium oxide, magnesium is excluded, is not more than 100 ppm.

6. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 1 , wherein

the filler further comprises at least one member selected from the group consisting of an zirconium oxide, titanium oxide and magnesium oxide.

7. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 1 , wherein the surfactant is a surfactant containing a silicone based surfactant.

8. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 7 , wherein the silicone based surfactant is nonionic.

9. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 1 , wherein

the nonaqueous solvent is contained in a proportion of from 70 to 90 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the nonaqueous electrolyte composition.

10. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 1 , wherein

the electrolyte salt is contained in a proportion of from 10 to 30 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the nonaqueous electrolyte composition.

11. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 1 , wherein

the matrix resin is contained in a proportion of from 4 to 15 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the nonaqueous electrolyte composition.

12. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising:

a positive electrode;

a negative electrode;

a separator; and

a nonaqueous electrolyte composition, wherein

the nonaqueous electrolyte composition contains a nonaqueous solvent, an electrolyte salt, a matrix resin, a filler and a surfactant that disperses the filler within the nonaqueous electrolyte composition and the filler comprises at least an aluminum oxide, and the aluminum oxide is an aluminum oxide having an alpha-conversion rate of 80% or more.

13. A nonaqueous electrolyte composition comprising:

a nonaqueous solvent,

an electrolyte salt;

a matrix resin; and

a filler containing at least an aluminum oxide, wherein

the aluminum oxide is an aluminum oxide having an alpha-conversion rate of 80% or more.

14. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 13 , wherein

the filler is a ceramic powder in which a concentration of the total sum of iron, copper, silicon, sodium, magnesium and zirconium, provided that in the case where the ceramic powder contains zirconium oxide, zirconium is excluded and that in the case where the ceramic power contains magnesium oxide, magnesium is excluded, is not more than 100 ppm.

15. The nonaqueous electrolyte composition according to claim 13 , wherein

the filler consists essentially of a ceramic powder.

16. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising:

a positive electrode;

a negative electrode;

a separator; and

a nonaqueous electrolyte composition, wherein

the nonaqueous electrolyte composition contains a nonaqueous solvent, an electrolyte salt, a matrix resin and a filler containing at least an aluminum oxide; and

the aluminum oxide is an aluminum oxide having an alpha-conversion rate of 80% or more.
