Abstract

A new electrolytic solution system for lithium secondary batteries. Provided is a lithium secondary battery electrolytic solution containing a nonaqueous solvent and a lithium salt. The nonaqueous solvent is mixed at an amount of not more than 3 mol with respect to 1 mol of the lithium salt.

Claims (18)

1. A secondary battery comprising: a positive electrode including a positive electrode active material; a negative electrode including a negative electrode active material capable of occluding and releasing lithium ions; and an electrolytic solution for lithium secondary batteries

wherein the electrolytic solution comprising a nonaqueous solvent and a lithium salt, wherein the nonaqueous solvent is mixed at an amount of not more than 3 mol with respect to 1 mol of the lithium salt; and

the positive electrode active material is oxygen; and

the nonaqueous solvent is acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, dimethyl sulfoxide, y-butyrolactone, or sulfolane.

2. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the nonaqueous solvent is mixed at an amount of not less than 1 mol but not more than 3 mol with respect to 1 mol of the lithium salt.

3. The secondary battery according to claim 2 , wherein the nonaqueous solvent is mixed at an amount of not less than 1.5 mol but not more than 2.5 mol with respect to 1 mol of the lithium salt.
