Abstract

A manufacturing method according to the present invention includes: preparing a positive-electrode active material including sulfate ions by 0.04 mmol/m 2 to 0.16 mmol/m 2 per unit specific surface area; manufacturing a positive electrode by use of the positive-electrode active material including sulfate ions; manufacturing a negative electrode by use of a negative-electrode active material; assembling a battery assembly by accommodating the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and a nonaqueous electrolyte including lithium difluoro bis-oxalate phosphate in a battery outer case, wherein an additive amount (μmol) of the lithium difluoro bis-oxalate phosphate in the nonaqueous electrolyte is determined so as to satisfy Formula (I); and performing a charging process on the battery assembly at least once.

Claims (50)

1. A method for manufacturing a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, the method comprising:

preparing a positive-electrode active material including sulfate ions by not less than 0.04 mmol/m 2 but not more than 0.16 mmol/m 2 per unit specific surface area;

manufacturing a positive electrode by use of the positive-electrode active material including sulfate ions;

manufacturing a negative electrode by use of a negative-electrode active material;

assembling a battery assembly by accommodating the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and a nonaqueous electrolyte including lithium difluoro bis-oxalate phosphate in a battery outer case, wherein an additive amount X (μmol) of the lithium difluoro bis-oxalate phosphate in the nonaqueous electrolyte is determined so as to satisfy the following formula (I):
