Abstract

The object of the present invention is to provide an electric power storage device using an aqueous electrolytic solution that is safe even if the device is damaged while being used and the electrolytic solution leaks out from the battery housing. Specifically, the object of the present invention is to provide a secondary battery having both excellent safety and excellent cycle characteristics. The present invention is an aqueous secondary battery, wherein at least either of the positive electrode or the negative electrode comprises a compound (I) having a naphthalenediimide structure or a perylenediimide structure as an active material.

Claims (12)

1. An aqueous secondary battery, wherein a negative electrode comprises a compound (I) having a naphthalenediimide structure or a perylenediimide structure as an active material, wherein the compound (I) is a compound represented by the following formula (1) or (2), or a polymer having structural units represented by the following formula (3) or (4):

wherein, in formulae (1) to (4), each of R 1 to R 4 , R 7 to R 14 , R 17 to R 20 , and R 22 to R 29 is independently a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group, or a hydrocarbon group;

each of R 5 , R 6 , R 15 , and R 16 is independently a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group, a hydrocarbon group, or any one of groups represented by formulae (5) to (9), each of R 31 to R 39 is independently a hydrogen atom or a halogen atom, and M is a transition metal;

R 21 and R 30 are a single bond, an alkylene group, a carbonyl group, an ester group, a nitrogen-containing group, an aromatic group, a heterocyclic group, a phenylene group, an oxygen-containing hydrocarbon chain, or a nitrogen-containing hydrocarbon chain;

each of X 1 to X 16 is independently an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, or an organic group,

the groups indicated by R 1 to R 39 and X 1 to X 16 are individually optionally substituted with a substituent; and

m and n are integers of 2 or more,

and wherein a positive electrode comprises at least one compound selected from the group consisting of compounds represented by the following formulae (10) to (16) as an active material:

wherein each of R 40 to R 61 is independently a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an aromatic group, a heterocyclic group, a carboxyl group, an amino group, a nitro group, a formyl group, a cyano group, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group, a thiol group, an alkylthio group, or a hydrocarbon group, M is a transition metal, and the groups indicated by R 40 to R 61 are individually optionally substituted with a substituent.

2. The aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , which comprises an aqueous electrolytic solution containing at least one type of salt selected from the group consisting of an alkali metal salt and an alkaline earth metal salt.

3. The aqueous secondary battery according to claim 2 , wherein the aqueous electrolytic solution contains a sodium salt.

4. The aqueous secondary battery according to claim 1 , which comprises a conducting auxiliary, a current collector, and a binder.
