Abstract

A separator for a non-aqueous secondary battery including a porous substrate, and an adhesive porous layer that is formed on one side or both sides of the porous substrate and contains the following resin A and the following resin B. Resin A: a polyvinylidene fluoride resin containing structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride (VDF) and structural units derived from hexafluoropropylene (HFP), a total content ratio of structural units derived from HFP in each of the VDF copolymers being from 0.5 mol % to 1.5 mol % of a total content of structural units in each of the VDF copolymers; and Resin B: a polyvinylidene fluoride resin containing structural units derived from VDF and structural units derived from HFP, a total content ratio of structural units derived from HFP in each of the VDF copolymers being greater than 1.5 mol % of a total content of structural units in each of the VDF copolymers.

Claims (14)

1. A separator for a non-aqueous secondary battery, comprising:

a porous substrate, and

an adhesive porous layer that is coated on one side or both sides of the porous substrate and contains the following polyvinylidene fluoride resin A and the following polyvinylidene fluoride resin B:

Polyvinylidene fluoride resin A: a polyvinylidene fluoride resin containing structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride and structural units derived from hexafluoropropylene, a total content ratio of structural units derived from hexafluoropropylene in each of the vinylidene fluoride copolymers being from 0.6 mol % to 1.5 mol % of a total content of structural units in each of the vinylidene fluoride copolymers; and

Polyvinylidene fluoride resin B: a polyvinylidene fluoride resin containing structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride and structural units derived from hexafluoropropylene, a total content ratio of structural units derived from hexafluoropropylene in each of the vinylidene fluoride copolymers being greater than 1.5 mol % to 15 mol % or less of a total content of structural units in each of the vinylidene fluoride copolymers,

wherein a mass ratio of the polyvinylidene fluoride resin A and the polyvinylidene fluoride resin B (polyvinylidene fluoride resin A:polyvinylidene fluoride resin B) in the adhesive porous layer is from 10:90 to 35:65.

2. The separator for a non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive porous layer has a porosity of from 30% to 60% and an average pore size of from 20 nm to 100 nm.

3. The separator for a non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein an amount per unit area of the adhesive porous layer at one side of the porous substrate is from 0.5 g/m 2 to 1.5 g/m 2 .

4. The separator for a non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the difference between the Gurley value of the porous substrate and the Gurley value of the separator including an adhesive porous layer formed on the porous substrate is 300 sec/100 cc or less.

5. The separator for a non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the polyvinylidene fluoride resin A and the polyvinylidene fluoride resin B are each a copolymer consisting of only vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene, and

the resin A and the resin B each have a weight average molecular weight of from 400,000 to 1,500,000.

6. The separator for a non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein

the polyvinylidene fluoride resin A and the polyvinylidene fluoride resin B are bound together to form a porous structure by being dissolved and blended together in a state in which the polyvinylidene fluoride resin A and the polyvinylidene fluoride resin B are in a solvent.

7. A non-aqueous secondary battery comprising a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and the separator for a non-aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , the separator being disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, wherein, in the non-aqueous secondary battery, electromotive force is obtained by lithium doping/dedoping.
