Abstract

A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator which has a low shutdown temperature, a high mechanical strength, and a high ion permeability is provided. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator contains a polyolefin-based resin as a main component. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator has a maximum heating value of not less than 30 mW/g observed during isothermal crystallization of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator at 128° C.

Claims (25)

1. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator comprising a polyolefin-based resin as a main component,

the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator having a maximum heating value of not less than 30 mW/g observed during isothermal crystallization of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator at 128° C.;

the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator having a puncture strength of not less than 350 gf/13 μm, wherein the puncture strength is obtained by converting a film thickness of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator into 13 μm;

the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator having a Gurley value of not more than 152 s/100 cc/13 μm, wherein the Gurley value is obtained by converting the film thickness into 13 μm; and

the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator having a shutdown temperature of not more than 136.7° C.

2. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator contains a polyethylene-based resin as the main component.

3. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery laminated separator comprising:

a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator recited in claim 1 ; and

a porous layer disposed on one surface or on both surfaces of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator,

the porous layer containing at least one resin that is selected from the group consisting of a meth(acrylate)-based resin, a fluorine-containing resin, a polyamide-based resin, a polyimide-based resin, a polyamideimide-based resin, a polyester-based resin, and a water-soluble polymer.

4. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery laminated separator as set forth in claim 3 , wherein the porous layer contains an aramid resin.

5. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery member comprising:

a positive electrode;

a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator recited in claim 1 ; and

a negative electrode,

the positive electrode, the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator, and the negative electrode being disposed in this order.

6. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery separator recited in claim 1 .

7. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery member comprising:

a positive electrode;

a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery laminated separator recited in claim 3 ; and

a negative electrode,

the positive electrode, the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery laminated separator, and the negative electrode being disposed in this order.

8. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery laminated separator recited in claim 3 .

9. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery member recited in claim 5 .

10. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery member recited in claim 7 .
