Nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery and method of manufacturing the same, and separator for nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery
A method of manufacturing a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery includes: preparing a separator substrate; forming a porous layer, which contains at least a fluorophosphate and a binder, on a surface of the separator substrate; preparing an electrode body by laminating a positive electrode and a negative electrode to face each other with a separator including the porous layer interposed therebetween, in which the separator is arranged such that the porous layer faces the positive electrode; preparing a battery assembly including the electrode body and a nonaqueous electrolyte; and charging the battery assembly at least once.
1. A method of manufacturing a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, the method comprising:
preparing a separator substrate;
preparing a separator by applying a paste or a slurry composition, which contains at least a fluorophosphate and a binder kneaded with each other in a solvent, to a surface of the separator substrate to form a porous layer on the surface of the separator substrate;
preparing an electrode body by arranging the separator such that the porous layer faces a positive electrode and laminating the positive electrode and a negative electrode to face each other with the separator interposed therebetween;
preparing a battery assembly comprising the electrode body and a nonaqueous electrolyte; and
charging the battery assembly at least once.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the separator is prepared by preparing the composition further containing an inorganic filler and applying the composition to the separator substrate.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
lithium difluorophosphate is used as the fluorophosphate.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
an amount of the fluorophosphate and an amount of the nonaqueous electrolyte in the composition are adjusted such that a concentration of the fluorophosphate in the porous layer in terms of a concentration of the nonaqueous electrolyte is 0.05 mol/kg or more.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the nonaqueous electrolyte does not contain the fluorophosphate.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the fluorophosphate is fixed on the porous layer.
