Nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery and method for producing nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery
The purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery that has excellent cycle characteristics. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to one embodiment of the present disclosure is provided with: an electrode body that comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode and a separator; and a nonaqueous electrolyte. A mixture layer of the negative electrode contains a negative electrode active material, at least either one of carboxymethyl cellulose or a salt thereof, and at least either one of sorbic acid or a salt thereof; and the content of the sorbic acid and/or a salt thereof is 1,500 ppm or less relative to the mass of the mixture layer.
1 . A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, comprising:
an electrode assembly including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator; and
a non-aqueous electrolyte, wherein
the negative electrode has: a negative electrode core; and a negative electrode mixture layer formed on at least one surface of the negative electrode core,
the negative electrode mixture layer includes: a negative electrode active material; at least one of carboxymethylcellulose and a salt thereof; and at least one of sorbic acid and a salt thereof, and
a content of the at least one of sorbic acid and a salt thereof is 50 ppm or more and 1500 ppm or less based on a mass of the negative electrode mixture layer.
2 . The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the content of the at least one of sorbic acid and a salt thereof is 100 ppm or more and 1000 ppm or less based on the mass of the negative electrode mixture layer.
3 . The non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the negative electrode mixture layer includes at least one selected from the group consisting of sorbic acid, potassium sorbate, sodium sorbate, and calcium sorbate.
4 . A method of manufacturing a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising: an electrode assembly including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator; and a non-aqueous electrolyte, wherein a step of manufacturing the negative electrode includes the steps of:
preparing a negative electrode mixture slurry including: a negative electrode active material; at least one of carboxymethylcellulose and a salt thereof; at least one of sorbic acid and a salt thereof; and water, wherein the at least one of sorbic acid and a salt thereof is added to the slurry to a concentration of 50 ppm or more 1500 ppm or less based on a solid content of the negative electrode mixture slurry; and
coating at least one surface of a negative electrode core with the negative electrode mixture slurry, and drying and compressing the coating to form a negative electrode mixture layer.
