Abstract

Provided is a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery which, even in the case of using a low-viscosity solvent having a narrow potential window, can increase the electrochemical stability of the nonaqueous electrolyte solution and suppress side reactions of the nonaqueous electrolyte solution during charge and discharge to reduce the degradation of the battery characteristics and has an excellent storage characteristic in high-temperature environments and a nonaqueous electrolyte solution for the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery includes: a positive electrode containing a positive-electrode active material; a negative electrode containing a negative-electrode active material; and a nonaqueous electrolyte solution containing a solute dissolved in a nonaqueous solvent, wherein the nonaqueous electrolyte solution further contains benzotrifluoride and a diisocyanate compound and the content of benzotrifluoride is 5% by volume or more in the nonaqueous electrolyte solution except the solute.

Claims (13)

1. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery including: a positive electrode containing a positive-electrode active material; a negative electrode containing a negative-electrode active material; and a nonaqueous electrolyte solution containing a solute dissolved in a nonaqueous solvent, wherein the nonaqueous electrolyte solution further contains benzotrifluoride and an alkylene diisocyanate compound and the content of benzotrifluoride is 5% by volume or more in the nonaqueous electrolyte solution except the solute and

the negative-electrode active material contains silicon.

2. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the content of benzotrifluoride is 10% by volume or more in the nonaqueous electrolyte solution except the solute.

3. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the content of the alkylene diisocyanate compound is within the range of 0.5% to 4.0% by volume in the nonaqueous electrolyte solution except the solute.

4. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein dimethyl carbonate, methyl ethyl carbonate, a carboxylic acid ester or a ketone is contained as the nonaqueous solvent.

5. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the carbon number of the aliphatic hydrocarbon group in the alkylene diisocyanate compound is 4 to 12.

6. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery including: a positive electrode containing a positive-electrode active material; a negative electrode containing a negative-electrode active material; and a nonaqueous electrolyte solution containing a solute dissolved in a nonaqueous solvent, wherein

the nonaqueous electrolyte solution further contains benzotrifluoride and an alkylene diisocyanate compound and the content of benzotrifluoride is 5% by volume or more in the nonaqueous electrolyte solution except the solute and

the negative-electrode active material contains a graphite material.

7. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 6 , wherein the content of benzotrifluoride is 10% by volume or more in the nonaqueous electrolyte solution except the solute.

8. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 6 , wherein the content of the alkylene diisocyanate compound is within the range of 0.5% to 4.0% by volume in the nonaqueous electrolyte solution except the solute.

9. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 6 , wherein dimethyl carbonate, methyl ethyl carbonate, a carboxylic acid ester or a ketone is contained as the nonaqueous solvent.
