Abstract

A binder for an all-solid-state secondary battery that can control a decrease in ionic conductivity, is excellent in binding properties and oxidation resistance, and can realize favorable cycle life characteristics even under a high voltage; and a binder composition for an all-solid-state secondary battery containing the binder. A binder for an all-solid-state secondary battery includes a polymer (A) which includes a repeating unit (a1) derived from an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester (excluding an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester having a hydroxyl group) and a repeating unit (a2) derived from a compound having a tertiary amino group, a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of the polymer (A) being from 250000 to 3000000, and an endothermic peak being observed at −10° C. or lower when differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is performed on the polymer (A) in accordance with JIS K 7121.

Claims (32)

1. A solid electrolyte sheet, comprising:

a layer comprising, in dried form, a solid electrolyte and a binder composition comprising a polymer (A) comprising, in polymerized form, (a1) an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester not having a hydroxyl group; and (a2) a tertiary amino compound comprising a tertiary amino group,

wherein the polymer (A) has a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) in a range of from 250,000 to 3,000,000, and

wherein an endothermic peak is observed at −10° C. or lower when differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is performed on the polymer (A) in accordance with JIS K 7121,

wherein no electrolyte solution is present in the sheet or contacts the sheet.

2. The sheet of claim 1 , wherein the polymer (A) further comprises, in polymerized form:

(a3) an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester having a hydroxyl group.

3. The sheet of claim 1 , wherein the unsaturated carboxylic acid ester (a3) is comprised in the polymer (A) in a range of from 0.1 to 20 parts by mass, when a total amount of repeating units in the polymer (A) is 100 parts by mass.

4. The sheet of claim 1 , wherein the tertiary amino compound (a2) is comprised in the polymer (A) in a range of from 0.1 to 20 parts by mass, when a total amount of repeating units contained in the polymer (A) is 100 parts by mass.

5. The sheet of claim 1 , wherein the solid electrolyte comprises an oxide-based solid electrolyte.

6. The sheet of claim 1 , wherein the solid electrolyte comprises a sulfide-based solid electrolyte.

7. A method of manufacturing the solid electrolyte sheet of claim 1 , the method comprising:

applying a slurry on a substrate and drying the slurry,

wherein the slurry comprises (i) a liquid medium, (ii) a solid electrolyte, and (iii) a binder comprising a polymer (A) comprising, in polymerized form, (a1) an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester not having a hydroxyl group; and (a2) a tertiary amino compound comprising a tertiary amino group,

9. An all-solid-state secondary battery, comprising:

a positive electrode active material layer;

a solid electrolyte layer; and

a negative electrode active material layer,

wherein at least one layer of the positive electrode active material layer, the solid electrolyte layer, and the negative electrode active material layer, comprises, in dried form, a solid electrolyte and a binder composition comprising a polymer (A) comprising, in polymerized form, (a1) an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester not having a hydroxyl group; and (a2) a tertiary amino compound comprising a tertiary amino group,

wherein the polymer (A) has a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) in a range of from 250,000 to 3,000,000,
