Abstract

A non-aqueous electrolytic solution comprising a non-aqueous solvent and an electrolyte, which further contains a combination of a nitrile compound and an S═O group-containing compound (or a dinitrile compound) in an amount of 0.001 to 10 wt. % imparts improved cycle performance and storage property to a lithium battery, particularly a lithium secondary battery.

Claims (32)

1. A non-aqueous electrolytic solution, comprising:

a non-aqueous solvent comprising from 30 to 50 volume percent of a cyclic carbonate, based on a total volume of the non-aqueous solvent;

from 0.5 to 1.5 M of at least one electrolyte selected from the group consisting of LiPF 6 and LiBF 4 ;

from 0.01 to 3% by weight of adiponitrile, based on a total weight of the non-aqueous electrolytic solution; and

from 0.2 to 3% by weight of at least one S═O group-containing compound selected from the group consisting of ethylenesulfite, 1,3-propanesultone, divinylsulfone, and propargyl methanesulfonate, based on a total weight of the non-aqueous electrolytic solution.

2. The non-aqueous electrolytic solution of claim 1 , wherein the cyclic carbonate comprises ethylene carbonate.

3. The non-aqueous electrolytic solution of claim 1 , wherein the electrolyte comprises LiPF 6 .
