Abstract

An object is to improve the safety of a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery at the time of the internal short circuit. The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator interposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The positive electrode includes a current collector and a positive electrode active material layer formed on the current collector. The current collector includes a metal foil having a roughened surface. The negative electrode includes a silicon-containing negative electrode active material. The metal foil is preferably a metal foil containing aluminum. The metal foil preferably has a surface roughness Ra of 0.1 to 2.0 μm.

Claims (11)

1. A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator interposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, wherein

the positive electrode includes a current collector and a positive electrode active material layer formed on the current collector,

the current collector includes a metal foil having a roughened surface,

the negative electrode includes a silicon-containing negative electrode active material,

a packing density of the positive electrode active material layer is 3.5 g/cm 3 to 4.0 g/cm 3 ,

wherein the metal foil is a metal foil containing aluminum,

wherein the positive electrode active material layer includes a lithium transition metal oxide containing lithium and a metal element M, and a percentage of nickel in the metal element M is 80 to 95 mol %, and

wherein the metal element M comprises aluminum.

2. The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the metal foil has a surface roughness Ra of 0.1 to 2.0 μm.

3. The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein a percentage of the aluminum in the metal element M is 0.01 mol % to 0.1 mol %.

4. The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the silicon-containing negative electrode active material includes SiO x (0.5≤X≤1.5) particles.
