Abstract

A non-aqueous secondary battery contains a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator and a non-aqueous electrolytic solution. The positive electrode contains a layered structure lithium-containing compound oxide, or a spinel lithium-containing compound oxide containing manganese as an active material. The non-aqueous electrolytic solution contains at least one additive selected from a sulfonic acid anhydride, a sulfonate ester derivative, a cyclic sulfate derivative and a cyclic sulfonate ester derivative, and a vinylene carbonate or a derivative of the vinylene carbonate.

Claims (18)

1. A non-aqueous secondary battery comprising:

a positive electrode;

a negative electrode;

a separator;

a non-aqueous electrolytic solution; and

a battery case, wherein

the positive electrode, the negative electrode, the separator and the non-aqueous electrolytic solution are contained in the battery case,

one case selected from the group consisting of a laminated case composed of a laminated film of aluminum and resin, a rectangular metal case and a cylindrical metal case is used for the battery case,

the negative electrode comprises as a negative electrode active material graphite having about 0.335 nm or more and 0.337 nm or less of interlayer distance d 002 of lattice plane (002),

the non-aqueous electrolytic solution contains at least one electrolyte salt selected from LiPF 6 and LiBF 4 and a cyclic sulfonate ester derivative expressed by the general formula (4),

the positive electrode comprises a layered lithium-containing compound oxide containing manganese as a positive electrode active material, and

a potential of the positive electrode is higher than 4.35 V and 4.6 V or less versus a Li reference electrode where the battery is charged up to a designed electric capacity:

wherein R 6 in the general formula (4) represents independently hydrogen or an alkyl group having 1-4 of carbon atoms, which can have a fluorinated substituent, m is 0, 1 or 2.

2. The non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the positive electrode, the negative electrode and the separator form a flat electrode assembly having a spiral structure, and the electrode assembly is fixed with an insulating tape and is contained in the rectangular metal case.

3. The non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the non-aqueous electrolytic solution further contains vinylene carbonate or a derivative of the vinylene carbonate.

4. The non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the positive electrode comprises a lithium-manganese-nickel-cobalt-containing compound oxide as the lithium-containing compound oxide.

5. The non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the content of the cyclic sulfonate ester derivative is 0.2 mass % or more and 5 mass % or less of the non-aqueous electrolytic solution.

6. The non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the content of the lithium-containing compound oxide is 10 mass % or more and 100 mass % or less of the entire positive electrode active material.
