Abstract

A secondary battery includes a cathode, an anode, and an electrolytic solution in which a polymer compound is dissolved.

Claims (45)

1 . A secondary battery, comprising:

a cathode;

an anode; and

an electrolytic solution in which a polymer compound is dissolved.

2 . The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein

the electrolytic solution contains a nonaqueous solvent and an electrolyte salt, and

the polymer compound is dissolved by the nonaqueous solvent.

3 . The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer compound contains one or more of polyvinylidene fluoride, polyethylene oxide, polyacrylonitrile, and poly(methyl methacrylate) ethylene oxide ester represented by a formula (1):

where n is an integer of 1 or more, and m is 1, 4, or 9.

4 . The secondary battery according to claim 1 , further comprising a polymer compound that is not dissolved in the electrolytic solution, wherein

the electrolytic solution is held by the polymer compound that is not dissolved in the electrolytic solution.

5 . The secondary battery according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a separator provided between the cathode and the anode; and

a polymer compound layer provided between the cathode and the separator, between the anode and the separator, or both.

6 . The secondary battery according to claim 5 , wherein

the polymer compound layer contains a fluorine-containing polymer compound, and

the fluorine-containing polymer compound contains one or more fluorines (F) as a constituent element.

7 . The secondary battery according to claim 5 , wherein

the separator has a cathode-facing surface that faces the cathode and an anode-facing surface that faces the anode, and

the polymer compound layer is provided one or both of the cathode-facing surface and the anode-facing surface.

8 . The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the cathode, the anode, and the electrolytic solution are contained inside a film-like outer package member.

9 . The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the secondary battery is a lithium secondary battery.

10 . A secondary battery-use electrolytic solution comprising a polymer compound that is dissolved in the secondary battery-use electrolytic solution.

11 . A battery pack comprising:

a secondary battery;

a controller that controls an operation of the secondary battery; and

a switch section that switches the operation of the secondary battery in accordance with an instruction from the controller,

the secondary battery including a cathode, an anode, and an electrolytic solution in which a polymer compound is dissolved.

12 . An electric vehicle comprising:

a secondary battery;

a converter that converts electric power supplied from the secondary battery into drive power;

a drive section that operates in accordance with the drive power; and

a controller that controls an operation of the secondary battery,

the secondary battery including a cathode, an anode, and an electrolytic solution in which a polymer compound is dissolved.

13 . An electric power storage system comprising:

a secondary battery;

one or more electric devices that are supplied with electric power from the secondary battery; and

a controller that controls the supplying of the electric power from the secondary battery to the one or more electric devices,

the secondary battery including a cathode, an anode, and an electrolytic solution in which a polymer compound is dissolved.

14 . An electric power tool comprising:

a secondary battery; and

a movable section that is supplied with electric power from the secondary battery,

the secondary battery including a cathode, an anode, and an electrolytic solution in which a polymer compound is dissolved.

15 . An electronic apparatus comprising a secondary battery as an electric power supply source, the secondary battery including a cathode, an anode, and an

electrolytic solution in which a polymer compound is dissolved.
