Abstract

An energy storage device includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a nonaqueous electrolyte solution. The negative electrode includes an active material layer, and the active material layer has pores having a pore size of 0.1 μm or more and 1.0 μm or less, and a total volume of the pores is 0.26 cm 3 /g or more and 0.46 cm 3 /g or less.

Claims (19)

1. An energy storage device comprising:

a positive electrode;

a negative electrode; and

a nonaqueous electrolyte solution,

wherein the negative electrode includes an active material layer containing a non-graphitizable carbon, and

the active material layer has pores having a pore size of 0.1 μm or more and 1.0 μm or less, and a total volume of the pores is 0.26 cm 3 /g or more and 0.46 cm 3 /g or less.

2. The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein a 90% cumulative diameter (D90) in a volume based particle size distribution of the non-graphitizable carbon is 1.9 μm or more and 11.5 μm or less.

3. The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein a 90% cumulative diameter (D90) in a volume based particle size distribution of the non-graphitizable carbon is 1.9 μm or more and 8.5 μm or less.

4. The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein a 90% cumulative diameter (D90) in a volume based particle size distribution of the non-graphitizable carbon is 1.9 μm or more and 4.3 μm or less.

5. The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein a 90% cumulative diameter (D90) in a volume based particle size distribution of the non-graphitizable carbon is 1.9 μm or more and 3.7 μm or less.

6. The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the active material layer contains a binder, and the binder is an aqueous binder.

7. The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the energy storage device includes a separator arranged between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and the separator has an inorganic layer.

8. The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein the energy storage device includes a separator arranged between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and the separator has an inorganic layer at least on a positive electrode side thereof.

9. The energy storage device according to claim 1 , wherein, in the negative active material layer, a packing density of the active material is 0.9 g/cm 3 or more and 1.04 g/cm 3 or less.

10. An energy storage device comprising:

a positive electrode;

a negative electrode; and

a nonaqueous electrolyte solution,

wherein the negative electrode includes an active material layer, and the active material layer has pores having a pore size of 0.1 μm or more and 1.0 μm or less, and a total volume of the pores is 0.26 cm 3 /g or more and 0.46 cm 3 /g or less.
