Abstract

The present invention provides a non-aqueous electrolyte composition with excellent high-temperature stability and a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery using the same. The non-aqueous electrolyte composition includes a supporting electrolyte, an organic solvent, and at least one kind of chemical compound (a) selected from the group consisting of a chemical compound (a1) indicated by the following general formula (1) and a chemical compound (a2) indicated by the following general formula (2).

Claims (13)

1. A non-aqueous electrolyte composition comprising:

a supporting electrolyte;

an organic solvent; and

at least one kind of chemical compound (a) selected from the group consisting of a chemical compound (a1) indicated by the following general formula (1) and a chemical compound (a2) indicated by the following general formula (2)

in the formula (1), O represents oxygen; in the formula (1), Y and Z mutually independently represent an element selected from the group consisting of carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge) and tin (Sn); in the formula (1), R 1 and R 2 mutually independently represent at least one kind of group selected from the group consisting of monovalent aliphatic hydrocarbon groups, monovalent alicyclic hydrocarbon groups and monovalent aromatic hydrocarbon groups, and at least either one represents a group having at least one kind of halogen selected from the group consisting of fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br) and iodine (I) as a constituent element.

(In the formula (2), O represents oxygen; In the formula (2), Y and Z mutually independently represent one kind of element selected from Group 14 of a larger version of the periodic table, i.e., one kind of element selected from the group consisting of carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge) and tin (Sn); In the formula (2), R 3 represents at least one kind of group selected from the group consisting of divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon groups and divalent alicyclic hydrocarbon groups, and represents a group having at least one kind of halogen selected from the group consisting of fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br) and iodine (I) as a constituent element).

2. A non-aqueous electrolyte composition as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

at least one kind of chemical compound (b) selected from the group consisting of vinylene carbonate, vinyl ethylene carbonate, fluoroethylene carbonate and difluoroethylene carbonate.

3. A non-aqueous electrolyte composition as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a compound (c) indicated by the following general formula (3)

in the formula (3), O represents oxygen and S represents sulfur; in the formula (3), A, B and D mutually independently represent at least one kind of group selected from the group consisting of a single bond, oxygen (O), carbonyl group, thiocarbonyl group, sulfinyl group, sulfonyl group and NR 8 group (R 8 represents at least one kind of group selected from the group consisting of monovalent aliphatic hydrocarbon groups, monovalent alicyclic hydrocarbon groups and monovalent aromatic hydrocarbon groups); in the formula (3), R4, R5, R6 and R7 mutually independently represent a single bond or a divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon group.

4. A non-aqueous electrolyte composition as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the supporting electrolyte contains at least one kind of lithium salt selected from the group consisting of lithium hexafluorophosphate, lithium tetrafluoroborate, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, lithium bis(pentafluoroethanesulfonyl)imide and lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide.

5. A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery that uses the non-aqueous electrolyte composition as claimed in claim 1 .
