Abstract

The present disclosure provides an anode material having further improved charge/discharge efficiency. The anode material according to the present disclosure includes an anode active material and a first solid electrolyte material. The first solid electrolyte material includes Li, M, and X, and does not include sulfur. M is at least one selected from the group consisting of metalloid elements and metal elements other than Li. X is at least one kind selected from the group consisting of Cl, Br, and I. The anode active material is an active material capable of storing and releasing lithium ions at a potential with respect to lithium of not less than 0.27 V.

Claims (32)

wherein

Me is at least one selected from the group consisting of Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Zn, Sc, Al, Ga, Bi, Zr, Hf, Ti, Sn, Ta, and Nb,

X is at least one selected from the group consisting of Cl, Br, and I,

a+mb+3c=6, a>0, b≥0 and c>0 are satisfied, and

m represents a valence of Me.

2. The anode material according to claim 1 , wherein

the first solid electrolyte material is

5. The anode material according to claim 1 , wherein

the anode active material comprises lithium titanate.

6. The anode material according to claim 5 , wherein

the lithium titanate comprises Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 .

7. A battery comprising:

an anode comprising the anode material according to claim 1 ;
