Abstract

An ion conductor material includes a solid-electrolyte material and a resin binder. The solid-electrolyte material includes Li, M, and X. The M is at least one selected from the group consisting of metal and metalloid elements other than Li. The X is at least one selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br, and I. The molar ratio of a modification group included in the resin binder to the solid-electrolyte material is less than or equal to 0.0002.

Claims (32)

1. An ion conductor material comprising a solid-electrolyte material and a resin binder,

wherein the solid-electrolyte material includes Li, M, and X,

wherein the M is at least one selected from the group consisting of metal and metalloid elements other than Li,

wherein the X is at least one selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br, and I, and

wherein a molar ratio of a modification group included in the resin binder to the solid-electrolyte material is less than or equal to 0.0002 and greater than 0.

2. The ion conductor material according to claim 1 ,

wherein the solid-electrolyte material is represented by Composition Formula (1) below,

Li α M β X γ   (1)

where the α, the β, and the γ all represent a value of greater than 0.

3. The ion conductor material according to claim 1 ,

7. The ion conductor material according to claim 1 ,

wherein the resin binder has an acid value of less than or equal to 1 mg-CH 3 ONa/g.

8. A battery comprising:

a positive electrode;

a negative electrode; and

an electrolyte layer interposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode,

wherein at least one selected from the group consisting of the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the electrolyte layer includes the ion conductor material according to claim 1 .

9. An ion conductor material comprising a solid-electrolyte material and a resin binder,

wherein the solid-electrolyte material includes Li, M, and X,

wherein the M is at least one selected from the group consisting of metal and metalloid elements other than Li,

wherein the X is at least one selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br, and I,

wherein a molar ratio of a modification group included in the resin binder to the solid-electrolyte material is less than or equal to 0.0002, and

wherein the resin binder includes a thermoplastic elastomer, and the thermoplastic elastomer is styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene block copolymer.

10. The ion conductor material according to claim 1 , wherein the M is Y and at least one selected from the group consisting of metal and metalloid elements other than Li and Y.

11. The ion conductor material according to claim 1 , wherein the modification group include a carboxylic group, a maleic anhydride group, an acyl group, a hydroxyl group, a sulfa group, a sulfanyl group, a phosphate group, a phosphonate group, an isocyanate group, an epoxy group, a silyl group, an amino group, a nitrile group, or a nitro group.
