Abstract

A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the invention has a power generating element with a single-cell layer which comprises a positive electrode including a positive electrode active material layer formed on a surface of a positive electrode collector, a negative electrode including a negative electrode active material layer formed on a surface of a negative electrode collector and a separator disposed between the positive electrode the negative electrode and containing a non-aqueous electrolyte, in which a value RA (=Rzjis (2)/Rzjis(1)) for the ratio between the surface roughness (Rzjis(1)) of the surface of the negative electrode active material layer on the side in contact with the separator and the surface roughness (Rzjis(2)) of the surface of the separator on the side in contact with the negative electrode active material layer is 0.15 to 0.85.

Claims (12)

1. A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery having a power generating element with a single-cell layer which includes:

a positive electrode including a positive electrode active material layer formed on a surface of a positive electrode collector;

a negative electrode including a negative electrode active material layer formed on a surface of a negative electrode collector; and

a separator disposed between the positive electrode active material layer and the negative electrode active material layer in a manner to contact to the negative electrode active material layer, the separator having therein a non-aqueous electrolyte, wherein a value R A (=Rzjis(2)/Rzjis(1)) for the ratio between the surface roughness (Rzjis(1)) of the surface of the negative electrode active material layer on the side in contact with the separator and the surface roughness (Rzjis(2)) of the surface of the separator on the side in contact with the negative electrode active material layer is 0.15 to 0.85,

wherein the separator is disposed between the positive electrode active material layer and the negative electrode active material layer in a manner to contact to the positive electrode active material layer,

wherein a value R B (=Rzjis(4)/Rzjis(3)) for the ratio between the surface roughness (Rzjis(3)) of the surface of the positive electrode active material layer on the side in contact with the separator and the surface roughness (Rzjis(4)) of the surface of the separator on the side in contact with the positive electrode active material layer is greater than 0.15 and smaller than or equal to 1.5, and

wherein the value R B is larger than the value R A .

2. A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery as claimed in claim 1 , in which the separator is a heat resistant insulating layer-mounted separator which comprises:

a porous base layer; and

a heat resistant insulating layer that is formed on one or both surfaces of the porous base layer and includes inorganic particles and a binder.

3. A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery as claimed in claim 1 , in which the value RB is equal to or larger than 0.5.

4. A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery as claimed in claim 2 , in which the value RB is equal to or larger than 0.5.
