Abstract

A nonaqueous electrolyte for a lithium-ion secondary battery containing 0.1 ppm to 20 ppm of vanadium in terms of vanadium ions, and containing cyclic carbonate and chain carbonate is used.

Claims (5)

1. A lithium-ion secondary battery comprising a positive electrode including LiVOPO 4 , as the positive electrode active material, a negative electrode which can intercalate and deintercalate lithium, and a nonaqueous electrolyte containing 0.1 ppm to 20 ppm of vanadium in terms of vanadium ions, and containing cyclic carbonate and chain carbonate.

2. The lithium-ion secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of vanadium in terms of vanadium ions is 0.1 ppm to 5 ppm.

3. The lithium-ion secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of vanadium in terms of vanadium ions is 0.2 ppm to 2 ppm.

4. The lithium-ion secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the vanadium is present as a vanadium salt selected from the group consisting of V 2 O 5 , V 2 O 4 , V 2 O 3 , VCl 3 , VCl 4 , LiVOPO 4 , VOPO 4 , vanadium acetylacetonate and sodium metavanadate.

5. The lithium-ion secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the cyclic carbonate and chain carbonate are selected from the group consisting of ethylene carbonate:diethyl carbonate in a volume ratio of 3:7, ethylene carbonate:diethyl carbonate:methylethyl carbonate in a volume ratio of 3:4:3, ethylene carbonate:dimethyl carbonate:methylethyl carbonate in a volume ratio of 3:4:3, and ethylene carbonate:propylene carbonate:dimethyl carbonate:methylethyl carbonate in a volume ratio of 2:1:4:3.
