Abstract

A negative electrode for a lithium ion secondary battery includes a current collector and an active material-containing layer disposed on the current collector. The active material-containing layer includes: a first negative electrode active material including a carbon material; a second negative electrode active material including a metal element or a metalloid element as a constituent element, the metal element or the metalloid element being capable of forming an alloy with lithium; and a binder. The first negative electrode active material contains a spherical graphite, and the binder contains an acrylic resin.

Claims (28)

1. A negative electrode for a lithium ion secondary battery, the negative electrode comprising:

a current collector; and

an active material-containing layer disposed on the current collector, wherein

the active material-containing layer includes:

a second negative electrode active material including a metal element or a metalloid element as a constituent element, the metal element or the metalloid element being capable of forming an alloy with lithium; and

a binder, wherein

the first negative electrode active material contains a spherical graphite

the second negative electrode active material contains amorphous SiO x , where 0<x<2,

the binder contains an acrylic resin,

a ratio (A+B)/C of a total of a weight A of the spherical graphite and a weight B of the amorphous SiO x to a weight C of the acrylic resin is 6 to 20, and

a ratio B/C of the weight B of the amorphous SiO x to the weight C of the acrylic resin is 1.4 to 3.

2. The negative electrode for a lithium ion secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein
