Abstract

To provide a non-aqueous electrolyte solution for secondary batteries, by which a secondary battery having both high conductivity and stability free from thermal runaway may be obtained. A non-aqueous electrolyte solution for secondary batteries, which comprises a lithium salt (a1) represented by R 1 —CHF—SO 2 —N(Li)—SO 2 —CHF—R 2 wherein in the formula (a1), each of R 1 and R 2 which are independent of each other, is a fluorinated C 1-5 alkyl group which may contain an ethereal oxygen atom, or a fluorine atom, an inorganic lithium salt (a2), and a solvent, wherein the proportion of the lithium salt (a1) based on the total amount i.e. 100 mol % of the lithium salt (a1) and the inorganic lithium salt (a2) is from 5.0 to 20.0 mol %.

Claims (11)

1. A non-aqueous electrolyte solution for secondary batteries, which comprises a lithium salt (a1) represented by formula (a1), an inorganic lithium salt (a2), and a solvent,

wherein the proportion of the lithium salt (a1) based on the total amount of the lithium salt (a1) and the inorganic lithium salt (a2) is from 5.0 to 20.0 mol %:

R 1 —CHF—SO 2 —N(Li)—SO 2 —CHF—R 2   (a1),

and

wherein in the formula (a1), each of R 1 and R 2 which are independent of each other, is a fluorinated C 1-5 alkyl group which may contain an ethereal oxygen atom, or a fluorine atom.

2. The non-aqueous electrolyte solution for secondary batteries according to claim 1 , wherein the lithium salt (a1) comprises a compound represented by formula (a1-1):

CF 3 —CHF—SO 2 —N(Li)—SO 2 —CHF—CF 3   (a1-1).

3. The non-aqueous electrolyte solution for secondary batteries according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic lithium salt (a2) comprises at least one member selected from the group consisting of LiPF 6 , LiBF 4 , and LiClO 4 .

4. The non-aqueous electrolyte solution for secondary batteries according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic lithium salt (a2) comprises LiPF 6 .

5. The non-aqueous electrolyte solution for secondary batteries according to claim 1 , which comprises a carbonate solvent.

6. The non-aqueous electrolyte solution for secondary batteries according to claim 1 , wherein the total amount of the lithium salt (a1) and the inorganic lithium salt (a2) in the non-aqueous electrolyte solution is from 0.5 to 3.0 mol per 1 L of the whole solvent.
