Abstract

An exemplary embodiment provides a lithium ion secondary battery using a high energy type anode, which enables long-life operation thereof. A secondary battery according to an exemplary embodiment comprises an electrode element in which a cathode and an anode are oppositely disposed, an electrolytic solution, and an outer packaging body which encloses the electrode element and the electrolytic solution inside; wherein the anode is formed by binding an anode active material, which comprises carbon material (a) that can absorb and desorb a lithium ion, metal (b) that can be alloyed with lithium, and metal oxide (c) that can absorb and desorb a lithium ion, to an anode collector with an anode binder; and wherein the electrolytic solution comprises a liquid medium which is hard to generate carbon dioxide at a concentration of 10 to 75 vol %.

Claims (21)

1. A secondary battery, comprising an electrode element in which a cathode and an anode are oppositely disposed, an electrolytic solution, and an outer packaging body which encloses the electrode element and the electrolytic solution inside;

wherein the anode is formed by binding an anode active material, which comprises carbon material (a) that can absorb and desorb a lithium ion, silicon (b) that can be alloyed with lithium, and silicon oxide (c) that can absorb and desorb a lithium ion, to an anode collector with an anode binder,

wherein the electrolytic solution comprises a fluorinated chain ether compound, a cyclic carbonate and a chain carbonate, and wherein the fluorinated chain ether compound is present at a concentration of 15 to 60 vol % based on the total amount of the fluorinated chain ether compound and the carbonates,

wherein the anode binder comprises polyimide or polyamide-imide;

wherein all or a part of the silicone oxide (c) has an amorphous structure and all or a part of the silicon (b) is dispersed in the silicon oxide (c);

wherein the fluorinated chain ether compound is represented by following formula (1);

H—(CX 1 X 2 —CX 3 X 4 ) n —CH 2 O—CX 5 X 6 —CX 7 X 8 —H  (1)

wherein in formula (1), n is 1, 2, 3 or 4, and X 1 to X 8 are each independently a fluorine atom or a hydrogen atom; and

wherein the electrode element has a planar stacking structure.

2. The secondary battery according to claim 1 ,

wherein in formula (1), at least one of X 1 to X 4 is a fluorine atom, and at least one of X 5 to X 8 is a fluorine atom, and the atom ratio of the fluorine atom and the hydrogen atom which are bonded to the compound of formula (1) satisfies the following relation:

[(the total number of the fluorine atom)/(the total number of the hydrogen atom)]≧1.

3. The secondary battery according to claim 2 , wherein the fluorinated chain ether compound is represented by following formula (2):

H—(CF 2 —CF 2 ) n —CH 2 O—CF 2 —CF 2 —H  (2)

wherein in formula (2), n is 1 or 2.

4. The secondary battery according to claim 1 ,

wherein the ratio of carbon material (a) is between 2 mass % and 30 mass % with respect to the total amount of carbon material (a), silicon (b) and silicon oxide (c), the ratio of silicon (b) is between 20 mass % and 50 mass % with respect to the total amount of carbon material (a), silicon (b) and silicon oxide (c), and the ratio of silicon oxide (c) is between 40 mass % and 70 mass % with respect to the total amount of carbon material (a), silicon (b) and silicon oxide (c).

5. The secondary battery according to claim 1 ,

wherein the anode binder comprises a polyamide-imide.

6. The secondary battery according to claim 1 ,

wherein in formula (1), at least one of X 1 to X 4 is a fluorine atom, and at least one of X 5 to X 8 is a fluorine atom.
