Abstract

A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to one aspect of the present invention includes: a positive electrode plate in which a positive electrode mixture layer containing a positive electrode active material is formed on a positive electrode current collector; a negative electrode plate in which a negative electrode mixture layer containing a negative electrode active material is formed on a negative electrode current collector; a separator; a non-aqueous electrolyte; a sealing member; and an outer casing. The negative electrode active material contains graphite and a silicon material. The silicon material contains silicon oxide represented by SiO x (0.5≤x<1.6) and a silicon-lithium silicate composite in which a silicon phase is dispersed in a lithium silicate phase represented by Li 2z SiO (2+z) (0<z<2). The amount of the silicon-lithium silicate composite is 33% by mass or more and 93% by mass or less relative to the silicon material.

Claims (8)

1. A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising:

a positive electrode plate in which a positive electrode mixture layer containing a positive electrode active material is formed on a positive electrode current collector; a negative electrode plate in which a negative electrode mixture layer containing a negative electrode active material is formed on a negative electrode current collector; a separator; a non-aqueous electrolyte; a sealing member; and an outer casing,

wherein the negative electrode active material contains graphite and a silicon material,

the silicon material contains silicon oxide represented by SiO x (0.5≤x<1.6) and a silicon-lithium silicate composite in which a silicon phase is dispersed in a lithium silicate phase represented by Li 2z SiO (2+z) (0<z<2),

an amount of the silicon-lithium silicate composite is 33% by mass or more and 73% by mass or less relative to the silicon material.

2. The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of the silicon material is 3% by mass or more and 20% by mass or less relative to the negative electrode active material.

3. The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the positive electrode active material contains a lithium-nickel composite oxide.

4. The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 2 , wherein the positive electrode active material contains a lithium-nickel composite oxide.
