Abstract

An electrolyte contains a non-aqueous solvent, a lithium salt, and a fluorine-containing ether compound represented by the following Formula (I). In the following formula, R 1 represents an alkyl group having 3 to 8 carbon atoms; R 2 represents an alkyl group having 1 carbon atom; at least 6 carbon atoms among carbon atoms bonded to the alkyl group represented by R 1 are substituted with fluorine atoms; and at least one hydrogen atom among hydrogen atoms bonded to the alkyl group represented by R 2 is substituted with a fluorine atom.

Claims (22)

1. An electrolyte comprising:

a non-aqueous solvent;

a lithium salt; and

a fluorine-containing ether compound,

wherein the fluorine-containing ether compound is 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,5-nonafluoropentyl difluoromethyl ether.

2. The electrolyte according to claim 1 ,

wherein the content of the fluorine-containing ether compound is 1% by volume to 60% by volume with respect to the total amount of the electrolyte.

3. The electrolyte according to claim 1 ,

wherein the non-aqueous solvent is a solvent mixture of ethylene carbonate and diethylene carbonate.

4. The electrolyte according to claim 1 ,

wherein the non-aqueous solvent is a solvent mixture of fluorinated ethylene carbonate and diethylene carbonate.

5. The electrolyte according to claim 4 ,

wherein the content of the fluorinated ethylene carbonate is 30% by volume to 70% by volume with respect to the total amount of the non-aqueous solvent.

6. The electrolyte according to claim 1 , further comprising a boron-based compound represented by the following Formula (B-1),

wherein

R 3 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or an alkenyl group having 2 to 4 carbon atoms, and

R 4 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms.

7. The electrolyte according to claim 6 ,

wherein the content of the boron-based compound is 0.01% by mass to 5% by mass with respect to the total amount of the electrolyte.

8. The electrolyte according to claim 6 ,

wherein the content of the boron-based compound is equal to or less than 5 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the fluorine-containing ether compound.

9. A lithium ion secondary battery comprising the electrolyte according to claim 1 .
