Abstract

A secondary battery capable of suppressing resistance rise even after repeated charge and discharge is provided. The secondary battery includes a cathode, an anode, and an electrolytic solution. The anode contains titanium-containing lithium composite as an anode active material, and the electrolytic solution contains cyclic disulfonic acid anhydride.

Claims (29)

1. A secondary battery comprising:

a cathode;

an anode; and

an electrolytic solution,

wherein the anode contains one or more of titanium-containing lithium composite oxides expressed by the following Formula 1 to Formula 3 as an anode active material, and

the electrolytic solution contains cyclic disulfonic acid anhydride expressed by the following Formula 4 or cyclic disulfonic acid anhydride expressed by the following Formula 5 or both:

Li[Li x M1 (1−3x)/2 Ti (3+x)/2 ]O 4   Formula 1

where M1 is one or more of Mg, Ca, Cu, Zn, and Sr, and x satisfies 0≦x≦⅓:

Li[Li y M2 1−3y Ti 1+2y ]O 4   Formula 2

where M2 is one or more of Al, Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ga, and Y, and y satisfies 0≦y≦⅓:

Li[Li 1/3 M3 z Ti (5/3)−z ]O 4   Formula 3

where M3 is one or more of V, Zr, and Nb, and z satisfies 0≦z≦⅔:

where R1 to R4 are an alkyl group (C m H 2m+1 : m satisfies 0≦m≦4):

where R5 to R10 are an alkyl group (C n H 2n+1 : n satisfies 0≦n≦4).

2. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the cyclic disulfonic acid anhydride is 1,2-ethanedisulfonic acid anhydride or 1,3-propanedisulfonic acid anhydride or both.

3. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein a content of the cyclic disulfonic acid anhydride in the electrolytic solution is from 0.1 wt % to 5 wt % both inclusive.

4. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the electrolytic solution contains halogenated cyclic ester carbonate expressed by the following Formula 6 or unsaturated carbon bond cyclic ester carbonate expressed by the following Formula 7 or both;

where R11 to R14 are a hydrogen group, a halogen group, an alkyl group (C p H 2p+1 : p satisfies 0≦p≦4), or a halogenated alkyl group (C q H 2q+1 X r : X is a halogen, q satisfies 0≦q≦4, and r satisfies 0≦r≦2q+1), and one or more of R11 to R14 are a halogen group or a halogenated alkyl group;

where R15 and R16 are an alkyl group (C s H 2s+1 : s satisfies 0≦s≦4).

5. The secondary battery according to claim 4 , wherein the halogenated cyclic ester carbonate is 4-fluoro-1,3-dioxolane-2-one, and the unsaturated carbon bond cyclic ester carbonate is vinylene carbonate.

6. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the electrolytic solution contains propylene carbonate as a cyclic ester carbonate.

7. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the cathode and the anode are layered with a separator in between, and

the separator includes a base material layer as a porous film and a polymer compound layer provided on one or both surfaces of the base material layer.

8. The secondary battery according to claim 7 , wherein the polymer compound layer contains polyvinylidene fluoride.

9. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the secondary battery is a lithium ion secondary battery.

10. An electronic device using the secondary battery according to claim 1 .

11. An electric power tool using the secondary battery according to claim 1 .

12. An electrical vehicle using the secondary battery according to claim 1 .

13. An electric power storage system using the secondary battery according to claim 1 .
