Abstract

The present invention relates to a nonaqueous electrolytic solution for use in a nonaqueous electrolytic solution secondary battery that comprises a negative electrode and a positive electrode capable of storing and releasing metal ions, and a nonaqueous electrolytic solution, wherein the nonaqueous electrolytic solution contains the specific compounds (A) and (B).

Claims (19)

1. A nonaqueous electrolytic solution secondary battery, comprising:

a positive electrode capable of storing and releasing metal ions;

a negative electrode consisting essentially of a carbonaceous material, a thickener, and a binder; and

a nonaqueous electrolytic solution,

wherein the nonaqueous electrolytic solution comprises a compound that does not have an aliphatic substituent having an unsaturated bond but has a Si—Si bond, and a carbonate ester having a halogen atom.

2. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the carbonate ester having a halogen atom is at least one compound selected from monofluoroethylene carbonate, 4,4-difluoroethylene carbonate, and 4,5-difluoroethylene carbonate.

3. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the compound that does not have an aliphatic substituent having an unsaturated bond but has a Si—Si bond is a compound of formula (4):

wherein A 1 to A 6 may be the same or different, and represent a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a hydrocarbon group of 1 to 10 carbon atoms that may have a heteroatom, or an optionally substituted hydrogen silicide group of 1 to 10 silicon atoms, and

wherein A 1 to A 6 may bind to one another to form a ring, where none of A 1 to A 6 is an aliphatic substituent having an unsaturated bond.

4. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the compound that does not have an aliphatic substituent having an unsaturated bond but has a Si—Si bond is at least one selected from the group consisting of hexamethyldisilane, hexaethyldisilane, 1,2-diphenyltetramethyldisilane, and 1,1,2,2-tetraphenyldisilane.

5. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , which comprises the compound that does not have an aliphatic substituent having an unsaturated bond but has a Si—Si bond in an amount of 0.01 mass % or more and 10 mass % or less.

6. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the carbonaceous material is graphite.

7. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the binder is present in the carbonaceous material in an amount of 0.1 to 20% by mass.

8. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the thickener is present in the carbonaceous material in an amount of 0.1 to 5% by mass.

9. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the carbonaceous material is graphite, the binder is present in the carbonaceous material in an amount of 0.1 to 20% by mass, and the thickener is present in the carbonaceous material in an amount of 0.1 to 5% by mass.

10. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the negative electrode consists of a carbonaceous material, a thickener, and a binder.

11. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein

the compound that does not have an aliphatic substituent having an unsaturated bond but has a Si—Si bond is at least one selected from the group consisting of hexamethyldisilane and 1,2-diphenyltetramethyldisilane, and

the carbonate ester having a halogen atom is monofluoroethylene carbonate.
