Description

  The present technology relates to a battery, a battery pack, an electronic device, an electric vehicle, a power storage device, and a power system.

  In recent years, portable electronic devices such as a camera-integrated VTR (Video Tape Recorder), a mobile phone, or a laptop computer have been widely used, and there is a strong demand for miniaturization, weight reduction, thinning, and long life. Along with this, development of secondary batteries that are lightweight and capable of obtaining a high energy density is also being promoted for secondary batteries used as power sources.

  Among them, a secondary battery using a carbon material as a negative electrode active material, a lithium transition metal oxide as a positive electrode active material, and a carbonate ester mixture as an electrolytic solution, and using lithium (Li) occlusion and release for charge / discharge reactions (so-called Lithium ion secondary batteries) are widely used. Lithium ion secondary batteries are widely used because they have higher energy density than lead batteries and nickel cadmium batteries, which are conventional nonaqueous electrolyte secondary batteries. Among them, a laminate film type battery in which an electrode body is sheathed with a laminate film is widely used for weight reduction and thickness reduction.

In recent years, a spinel-structured titanium-containing lithium transition metal oxide, particularly lithium titanate (Li ₄ Ti ₅ O ₁₂ ) has attracted attention as a negative electrode active material as disclosed in Patent Document 1. Since lithium titanate has a higher potential than graphite and metal lithium is less likely to precipitate, it has been proposed that an increase in resistance caused by decomposition of the electrolytic solution by metal lithium can be suppressed.

JP 2008-84690 A

  However, since the negative electrode using lithium titanate as shown in Patent Document 1 has poor reactivity, it is difficult to form a protective film due to the decomposition of the electrolytic solution in the initial stage of charging. For this reason, particularly during high temperature storage, there has been a problem that the electrolyte solution is continuously decomposed in the vicinity of the negative electrode and gas is generated inside the battery.

  The present technology has been made in view of such problems of the conventional technology, and an object of the present technology is to provide a battery capable of suppressing decomposition of an electrolytic solution in a high temperature environment. . In addition, an object of the present technology is to provide a battery pack, an electronic device, an electric vehicle, a power storage device, and a power system using such a battery.

The negative electrode current collector 12A is made of, for example, a metal foil such as a copper foil. As shown in FIG. 3C, a negative electrode tab 12C connected to the negative electrode lead 3 is continuously extended from the negative electrode current collector 12A.

In FIG. 3B, in order to clarify the configuration of the negative electrode tab 12C, a part of the negative electrode active material layer 12B is not formed, but actually, the negative electrode active material layer 12B is formed except for the negative electrode tab 12C portion. It is formed.

  The negative electrode active material layer 12B includes, as a negative electrode active material, one or two or more negative electrode materials having a potential at the time of full charge of 1.0 V or more and 1.6 V or less as a counter lithium potential, It may be configured to include other materials such as a conductive agent and a binder similar to those of the positive electrode active material layer 11B as necessary.

  In this laminated film type battery 1, the electrochemical equivalent of the negative electrode material capable of occluding and releasing lithium is larger than the electrochemical equivalent of the positive electrode 11, and theoretically the negative electrode 12 during the charging.

  Among these, it is preferable to use a titanium-containing lithium transition metal composite oxide as the lithium transition metal composite compound having a spinel structure. As the titanium-containing lithium transition metal composite oxide having a spinel structure, at least one of titanium-containing lithium transition metal composite oxides represented by the following formulas (1-1) to (1-3) is used.

Formula (1-1)
Li [Li _x M1 _{(1-3x) / 2} Ti _{(3 + x) / 2} ] O ₄
(In the formula, M1 is at least one of divalent ions of magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn) and strontium (Sr)), and 0 ≦ x ≦ 1/3 is there.)

Formula (1-2)
Li [Li _y M2 _1-3y Ti _{1 + 2y} ] O ₄
(Wherein M2 is at least one of trivalent ions of aluminum (Al), scandium (Sc), chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), gallium (Ga) and yttrium (Y)). Yes, 0 ≦ y ≦ 1/3.)

Formula (1-3)

(In the formula, M3 is at least one of tetravalent ions of vanadium (V), zirconium (Zr), and niobium (Nb), and 0 ≦ z ≦ 2/3.)

Equation (1-1) to Formula for (1-3), as the titanium-containing lithium composite oxide containing no transition metal other than titanium (Ti), and lithium titanate (Li ₄ Ti ₅ O ₁₂₎ it is. For the titanium-containing lithium transition metal composite oxide containing a transition metal other than titanium (Ti), examples of the titanium-containing lithium transition metal composite oxide represented by the formula (1-1) include lithium / titanium / magnesium composite oxide.

  As the negative electrode active material, a material in which the surface of the negative electrode material described above is coated with an electronic conductive material such as a carbon material may be used. The negative electrode active material whose surface is coated with a carbon material includes a mixture of a lithium (Li) source, a titanium (Ti) source, a necessary transition metal source, an electronic conductive material or a precursor of an electronic conductive material, It is obtained by spraying a solution or suspension containing the above in air and heating. The negative electrode active material whose surface is coated with a carbon material includes a titanium-containing lithium transition metal composite oxide represented by any one of the above formulas (1-1) to (1-3), and an electronic conductive material. Alternatively, it can also be obtained by spraying a solution or suspension containing a precursor of an electronic conductive material into the air, depositing the electronic conductive material on the titanium-containing lithium transition metal composite oxide, and drying or heating.

Further, a negative electrode composite comprising a titanium-containing lithium transition metal composite oxide represented by any one of the above formulas (1-1) to (1-3) and an electron conductive substance or a precursor of the electron conductive substance. The agent may be applied to the negative electrode current collector and dried or heated.

  Since these materials have a higher potential than graphite and metal lithium is less likely to precipitate, an increase in resistance due to the decomposition of the electrolytic solution by the metal lithium can be suppressed.

[Electrolyte]
The electrolytic solution contains an additive that decomposes in the range of 1.6 V to 2.5 V at the counter electrode lithium potential to form a film on the negative electrode, together with the solvent and the electrolyte salt. In addition, the electrolytic solution may be a non-flowable electrolyte that is held in a polymer material and made non-flowable, for example, a gel electrolyte.

  The additive of the present technology is poor in reactivity by decomposing in the range of 1.6 V to 2.5 V at a counter lithium potential higher than the negative electrode potential at full charge and forming a film on the negative electrode. A film can be formed even on the surface of the negative electrode active material. For this reason, it can suppress that electrolyte solution decomposes | disassembles continuously at the time of high temperature preservation | save. In addition, by suppressing gas generation, it is possible to suppress battery swelling even when a deformable exterior member is used.

  As an additive which decomposes | disassembles in the range of 1.6V or more and 2.5V or less with a counter electrode lithium potential, and forms a film on a negative electrode, the cyclic carboxylic anhydride shown by Formula (A) can be used, for example. The cyclic carboxylic acid anhydride is decomposed on the negative electrode surface to form a protective film derived from the cyclic carboxylic acid anhydride. This protective film contains cyclic lithium carboxylate as a main component and suppresses decomposition of the electrolytic solution.

（式中、Ｒは下記の式（Ｒ１）、式（Ｒ２）または２価の芳香族炭化水素基で示され、Ｒ１１〜Ｒ１４はそれぞれ独立してＣ_nＨ_2n+1であり、０≦ｎ≦４、２≦ｍ≦３であり、またはＲ１１同士、Ｒ１２同士もしくはＲ１１およびＲ１２、またはＲ１３およびＲ１４が互いに連結して環を形成していてもよい。）

(In the formula, R is represented by the following formula (R1), formula (R2) or a divalent aromatic hydrocarbon group, R11 to R14 are each independently C _n H _{2n + 1} , and 0 ≦ n ≦ 4, 2 ≦ m ≦ 3, or R11s, R12s or R11 and R12, or R13 and R14 may be linked to each other to form a ring.

  It is important that the additive of the present technology is a cyclic carboxylic acid anhydride. In a chain carboxylic acid anhydride, the reaction product is lithium carboxylate, but lithium carboxylate is easily dissolved in the electrolyte and does not form a protective coating. For this reason, when a chain carboxylic acid anhydride is used as an additive, a remarkable gas generation suppression effect as in the case of using a cyclic carboxylic acid anhydride cannot be obtained.

  Such cyclic carboxylic acid anhydrides include cyclic aliphatic saturated dicarboxylic acid anhydrides such as succinic acid anhydride and glutaric acid anhydride, cyclic aliphatic unsaturated dicarboxylic acid anhydrides such as maleic acid anhydride, and phthalic acid. At least one of aromatic dicarboxylic acid anhydrides such as anhydride, isophthalic acid anhydride and terephthalic acid anhydride can be used. Especially, it is preferable to use the succinic anhydride shown by Formula (A-1), the glutaric anhydride shown by Formula (A-2), or the phthalic anhydride shown by Formula (A-3).

  The cyclic carboxylic acid anhydride is preferably contained in the electrolytic solution in an amount of 0.1% by mass to 1.0% by mass. This is because it is possible to sufficiently obtain the effect of suppressing the gas generation due to the addition of the cyclic carboxylic acid anhydride and to suppress the increase in resistance due to the coating.

As an electrolyte salt, you may contain 1 type, or 2 or more types of light metal salts, such as inorganic lithium salt. Examples of the inorganic lithium salt include lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF ₆ ), lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF ₄ ), lithium perchlorate (LiClO ₄ ), and lithium hexafluoroarsenate (LiAsF ₆ ). , Lithium tetraphenylborate (LiB (C ₆ H ₅ ) ₄ ), lithium methanesulfonate (LiCH ₃ SO ₃ ), lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate (LiCF ₃ SO ₃ ), lithium tetrachloroaluminate (LiAlCl ₄ ), Examples thereof include dilithium hexafluorosilicate (Li ₂ SiF ₆ ), lithium chloride (LiCl), and lithium bromide (LiBr). Among these, at least one member selected from the group consisting of lithium hexafluorophosphate, lithium tetrafluoroborate, lithium perchlorate, and lithium hexafluoroarsenate is preferable, lithium hexafluorophosphate, tetrafluoride More preferred is lithium borate.

  Further, as the electrolyte salt, an imide salt compound represented by the following formula (B) or a methide salt compound represented by the formula (C) may be used.

Formula (C)

Examples of the non-aqueous solvent include ethylene carbonate (EC), propylene carbonate (PC), butylene carbonate (BC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC), diethyl carbonate (DEC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC), and methyl propyl carbonate (MPC). ), Γ-butyrolactone, γ-valerolactone, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, tetrahydrofuran, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran, 1,3-dioxolane, 4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane, 1,3-dioxane, 1,4-dioxane, tetramethylene sulfone, 3-methyl-2-oxazolidone, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, methyl propionate, ethyl propionate, methyl butyrate, methyl isobutyrate, methyl trimethyl acetate, trimethyl Ethyl acetate, acetonitrile, glutaronitrile, adiponitrile, methoxyacetonitrile, 3-methoxypropionitrile, N, N-dimethylacetamide, methyl N, N-diethylcarbamate, ethyl N, N-diethylcarbamate, N, N- Dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidinone, N-methyloxazolidinone, N, N′-dimethylimidazolidinone, nitromethane, nitroethane, sulfolane, trimethyl phosphate, dimethyl sulfoxide, or the like can be used. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

  Among them, as the non-aqueous solvent, at least one of propylene carbonate, butylene carbonate, and γ-butyrolactone having a high dielectric constant solvent (for example, relative dielectric constant ε ≧ 30) and a low viscosity solvent (for example, viscosity ≦ 1 mPa · s) It is preferable to use a mixture of at least one of dimethyl carbonate and ethyl methyl carbonate. In this case, it is particularly preferable that propylene carbonate as a high dielectric constant solvent and both dimethyl carbonate and ethyl methyl carbonate as a low viscosity solvent are mixed and contained. This is because the dissociation property of the electrolyte salt and the ion mobility are improved, so that a higher effect can be obtained.

  In addition, when using a negative electrode material whose potential at full charge is 1.0 V or more and 1.6 V or less as a negative electrode active material as a negative electrode active material, use at least one of cyclic carbonates represented by the following formula (D). Can do.

(Wherein, R21 to R26 is C _n H _{2n + 1} each independently is 0 ≦ n ≦ 4.)

  The cyclic carbonate represented by the formula (D) does not contain ethylene carbonate (EC). As a solvent for a battery using a conventional carbon-based negative electrode active material, although it was almost essential to contain ethylene carbonate (EC), for example, it has a higher reactivity than propylene carbonate (PC) and is relatively a gas. Occurrence was easy to occur. In the present technology, unlike a battery using a conventional carbon-based negative electrode active material, the inclusion of ethylene carbonate (EC) in a solvent is not essential, which is preferable because the gas generation suppression effect is improved.

  Further, the electrolytic solution may contain a carboxylic acid ester represented by the following formula (E). This is because the carboxylic acid ester has a lower viscosity than carbonic acid esters such as ethylene carbonate (EC) and propylene carbonate (PC), and the mobility of ions in the electrolytic solution in which the carboxylic acid ester is mixed becomes larger. In particular, it is preferable to include ethyl acetate represented by the formula (E-1), methyl propionate represented by the formula (E-2), and the like.

（式中、Ｒ３１〜Ｒ３６はそれぞれ独立してＣ_nＨ_2n+1であり、０≦ｎ≦４である。）

  Furthermore, you may contain the unsaturated cyclic carbonate shown by Formula (F), and the halogenated ethylene carbonate shown by Formula (G) in electrolyte solution. Since these also form a protective film on the electrode surface, a higher gas generation suppression effect can be obtained by including them in the electrolyte together with the cyclic carboxylic acid anhydride.

（式（Ｆ）および式（Ｇ）中、Ｒ４１〜Ｒ４５はそれぞれ独立してＣ_mＨ_2m+1-nＸ_nであり、Ｘはハロゲン原子であり、０≦ｍ≦４かつ０≦ｎ≦２ｍ＋１である。）

(In the formula (F) and Formula (G), R41~R45 is _{C m H 2m + 1-n} X n independently, X is a halogen atom, 0 ≦ m ≦ 4 and 0 ≦ n ≦ 2m + 1.)

  As the unsaturated cyclic carbonate represented by the formula (F), for example, a vinylene carbonate compound can be used. Examples of vinylene carbonate compounds include vinylene carbonate (1,3-dioxol-2-one), methyl vinylene carbonate (4-methyl-1,3-dioxol-2-one), ethyl vinylene carbonate (4-ethyl- 1,3-dioxol-2-one), 4,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxol-2-one, 4,5-diethyl-1,3-dioxol-2-one, 4-fluoro-1,3 -Dioxol-2-one, 4-trifluoromethyl-1,3-dioxol-2-one, etc. are mentioned. These may be used alone or in combination. Of these, vinylene carbonate represented by the formula (F-1) is preferable. This is because they can be easily obtained and a high gas generation suppression effect can be obtained by forming a protective film.

  Examples of the halogenated ethylene carbonate represented by the formula (G) include fluoroethylene carbonate (4-fluoro-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, FEC), difluoroethylene carbonate (4,5-difluoro-1,3-dioxolane- 2-one, DFEC), 4-chloro-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, tetrafluoro-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4-chloro-5-fluoro-1,3-dioxolane-2- ON, 4,5-dichloro-1,3-oxolan-2-one, tetrachloro-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4,5-bistrifluoromethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4 -Trifluoromethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4,5-difluoro-4,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one 4,4-difluoro-5-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4-ethyl-5,5-difluoro-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4-fluoro-5-trifluoromethyl -1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4-methyl-5-trifluoromethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4-fluoro-4,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one 5- (1,1-difluoroethyl) -4,4-difluoro-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4,5-dichloro-4,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4-ethyl-5-fluoro-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4-ethyl-4,5-difluoro-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, 4-ethyl-4,5,5-trifluoro -1,3-dioxola 2-one, 4-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one can be used. These may be single and multiple types may be mixed.

  Especially, the fluoroethylene carbonate shown by Formula (G-1) or the difluoroethylene carbonate shown by Formula (G-2) is preferable, and the fluoroethylene carbonate shown by Formula (G-1) is more preferable. In particular, as difluoroethylene carbonate, a trans isomer is preferable to a cis isomer. This is because they can be easily obtained and a high gas generation suppression effect can be obtained by forming a protective film.

  When a gel electrolyte is used, the electrolytic solution is held by the polymer material. The polymer material may be any material that absorbs a non-aqueous solvent and gels. For example, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) or vinylidene fluoride (VdF) and hexafluoropropylene (HFP) are included in a repeating unit. Fluorine-based polymer materials such as polymers, ether-based polymer materials such as polyethylene oxide (PEO) or cross-linked products containing polyethylene oxide (PEO), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), polypropylene oxide (PPO), or polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) ) As a repeating unit. Any one of these polymer materials may be used alone, or two or more thereof may be mixed and used.

  In particular, from the viewpoint of redox stability, a fluorine-based polymer material is desirable, and among them, a copolymer containing polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) or vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene as components is preferable. Furthermore, this copolymer is composed of unsaturated dibasic acid monoesters such as maleic acid monomethyl ester (MMM), halogenated ethylenes such as ethylene trifluorochloride (PCTFE), or epoxy group-containing acrylic vinyl monomers. May be included. This is because higher characteristics can be obtained.

  As a polymer material, a polymerizable gelling agent may be included in the electrolytic solution, and a gel electrolyte layer may be formed by performing a polymerization treatment such as ultraviolet curing or heat curing. Examples of the polymerizable gelling agent include those having an unsaturated double bond such as acryloyl group, methacryloyl group, vinyl group or allyl group.

Especially, it is preferable to use the oxyalkylene glycol type compound which has an acryloyl group or a methacryloyl group. Any one of the polymerizable gelling agents may be used alone, or two or more thereof may be mixed and used.

  Instead of using the separator 13, the gel electrolyte layer may be used in place of the separator 13 that insulates the positive electrode 11 and the negative electrode 12 and prevents physical contact between the positive electrode 11 and the negative electrode 12. In this case, the gel electrolyte layer is provided between the positive electrode 11 and the negative electrode 12.

[Separator]
The separator 13 separates the positive electrode 11 and the negative electrode 12 and allows lithium ions to pass through while preventing a short circuit of current due to contact between the two electrodes. The separator 13 is made of, for example, a porous film made of synthetic resin made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF), or the like, or a ceramic porous film. It may be configured to have a structure in which these two or more porous films are mixed or laminated. In particular, a polyolefin porous membrane is preferable because it is excellent in short-circuit prevention effect and can improve battery safety by a shutdown effect. The separator 13 is impregnated with a part of the electrolytic solution.

Furthermore, the separator 13 may apply or deposit a polymer material such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) on the surface of the porous film. In this case, the electrolyte solution is held on the polymer material on the surface of the separator 13 to form a gel electrolyte. The polymer material on the surface of the separator 13 may be mixed with an inorganic oxide such as alumina (Al ₂ O ₃ ) or silica (SiO ₂ ).

  The metal layer plays the most important role in protecting the contents by preventing the ingress of moisture, oxygen and light, and aluminum (Al) is most often used because of its lightness, extensibility, price and ease of processing. The outer resin layer has a beautiful appearance, toughness, flexibility, and the like, and a resin material such as nylon or polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is used. Since the inner resin layer is a portion that melts and fuses with heat or ultrasonic waves, polyolefin is suitable, and unstretched polypropylene (CPP) is often used. As the resin material constituting the inner resin layer, a resin material having a melting point lower than that of the outer resin layer is used. This is because only the inner resin layer can be melted by heat-sealing at a temperature between the melting point of the resin material constituting the inner resin layer and the melting point of the resin material constituting the outer resin layer. An adhesive layer may be provided between the metal layer, the outer resin layer, and the inner resin layer as necessary.

The adhesion film 4 is made of a resin material having high adhesion to a metal material, and is made of, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, or a polyolefin resin such as modified polyethylene or modified polypropylene obtained by modifying these materials.

  The exterior member 5 may be made of a laminate film having another structure, a polymer film such as polypropylene, or a metal film, instead of the aluminum laminate film whose metal layer is made of aluminum (Al).

  An adhesive film 4 is inserted between the exterior member 5 and the positive electrode lead 2 and the negative electrode lead 3 to prevent intrusion of outside air and infiltration of moisture. The adhesion film 4 is made of a material having adhesion to the positive electrode lead 2 and the negative electrode lead 3. Examples of such a material include polyolefin resins such as polyethylene, polypropylene, modified polyethylene, and modified polypropylene.

The battery can 51 may be plated with, for example, nickel in order to prevent corrosion due to the electrochemical electrolyte accompanying charging / discharging of the cylindrical battery 50. At the open end of the battery can 51, a battery lid 53, which is a positive electrode lead plate, and a safety valve mechanism and a thermal resistance element (PTC element: Positive Temperature Coefficient) 57 provided inside the battery lid 53 are insulated and sealed. It is attached by caulking through a gasket 58 for

  The battery lid 53 is made of, for example, the same material as that of the battery can 51, and is provided with an opening for discharging gas generated inside the battery. In the safety valve mechanism, a safety valve 54, a disk holder 55, and a shut-off disk 56 are sequentially stacked. The protruding portion 54a of the safety valve 54 is connected to the positive electrode lead 65 led out from the wound electrode body 60 through a sub disk 59 disposed so as to cover a hole 56a provided in the central portion of the cutoff disk 56. . By connecting the safety valve 54 and the positive electrode lead 65 via the sub disk 59, the positive electrode lead 65 is prevented from being drawn from the hole 56a when the safety valve 54 is reversed. Further, the safety valve mechanism is electrically connected to the battery lid 53 via the heat sensitive resistance element 57.

  In the safety valve mechanism, when the internal pressure of the cylindrical battery 50 exceeds a certain level due to internal short circuit or heating from the outside of the battery, the safety valve 54 is reversed, and the protrusion 54a, the battery lid 53, the wound electrode body 60, This disconnects the electrical connection. That is, when the safety valve 54 is reversed, the positive electrode lead 65 is pressed by the shut-off disk 56 and the connection between the safety valve 54 and the positive electrode lead 65 is released. The disc holder 55 is made of an insulating material, and when the safety valve 54 is reversed, the safety valve 54 and the shut-off disc 56 are insulated.

  Further, when further gas is generated inside the battery and the internal pressure of the battery further increases, a part of the safety valve 54 is broken and the gas can be discharged to the battery lid 53 side.

  Further, for example, a plurality of gas vent holes (not shown) are provided around the hole portion 56a of the shut-off disk 56, and when gas is generated from the wound electrode body 60, the gas is effectively removed from the battery lid. It is set as the structure which can discharge | emit to 53 side.

  The resistance element 57 increases in resistance when the temperature rises, cuts off the electrical connection between the battery lid 53 and the wound electrode body 60 and cuts off the current, thereby generating abnormal heat generation due to an excessive current. To prevent. The gasket 58 is made of, for example, an insulating material, and asphalt is applied to the surface.

  The wound electrode body 60 accommodated in the cylindrical battery 50 is wound around a center pin 64. The wound electrode body 60 has the same configuration as that of the second embodiment, and is obtained by sequentially laminating the positive electrode 61 and the negative electrode 62 via the separator 63 and winding in the longitudinal direction. Since the positive electrode 61, the negative electrode 62, the separator 63, and the electrolytic solution are the same as those in the first embodiment, detailed description thereof is omitted.

  A positive electrode lead 65 is connected to the positive electrode 61, and a negative electrode lead 66 is connected to the negative electrode 62. As described above, the positive electrode lead 65 is welded to the safety valve 54 and electrically connected to the battery lid 53, and the negative electrode lead 66 is welded to and electrically connected to the battery can 51.

(4-2) Battery manufacturing method [Positive electrode and negative electrode manufacturing method]
The positive electrode and the negative electrode can be manufactured in the same manner as in the first embodiment.

[Battery assembly]
A positive electrode lead 65 is attached to the positive electrode 61 by welding or the like, and a negative electrode lead 66 is attached to the negative electrode 62 by welding or the like. Thereafter, the positive electrode 61 and the negative electrode 62 are wound through a separator 63 to form a wound electrode body 60.

  Subsequently, the tip of the positive electrode lead 65 is welded to the safety valve mechanism, and the tip of the negative electrode lead 66 is welded to the battery can 51. Thereafter, the wound surface of the wound electrode body 60 is sandwiched between the pair of insulating plates 52 a and 52 b and housed inside the battery can 51. After the wound electrode body 60 is accommodated in the battery can 51, the electrolytic solution is injected into the battery can 51.

  When forming the gel electrolyte layer, the wound electrode body 60 is manufactured by the fourth manufacturing method of the second embodiment. That is, the wound electrode body 60 is formed using the positive electrode 61 and the negative electrode 62 on which the gel electrolyte layer is formed in advance. In the cylindrical battery 50, unlike the laminated film battery 1 in the first embodiment, it is difficult to form a gel electrolyte layer by sealing and heating from the outside of the battery after sealing. For this reason, it is necessary to prepare the wound electrode body 60 after assembling the gel electrolyte layer on the surfaces of the positive electrode 61 and the negative electrode 62 in advance and assemble the cylindrical battery 50. Then, the tip of the positive electrode lead 65 is welded to the safety valve mechanism, and the tip of the negative electrode lead 66 is welded to the battery can 51. Thereafter, the wound surface of the wound electrode body 60 is sandwiched between the pair of insulating plates 52 a and 52 b and housed inside the battery can 51. The wound electrode body 60 is housed inside the battery can 51. If necessary, an electrolytic solution may be further injected into the battery can 51.

  Subsequently, the safety valve mechanism including the battery lid 53 and the safety valve 54 and the heat sensitive resistance element 57 are fixed to the opening end of the battery can 51 by caulking through the gasket 58. Thereby, the cylindrical battery 50 of this technique shown in FIG. 7 is obtained.

<Effect>

It has the effect of suppressing gas generation.

5. Fifth Embodiment In the fifth embodiment, a battery pack provided with a battery (laminated film battery 1, prismatic battery 30, or cylindrical battery 50) using the electrolyte of the present technology will be described.

  FIG. 8 is a block diagram illustrating a circuit configuration example when the battery of the present technology (laminate film battery 1, square battery 30 or cylindrical battery 50) is applied to a battery pack. The battery pack includes a switch unit 104 including an assembled battery 101, an exterior, a charge control switch 102a, and a discharge control switch 103a, a current detection resistor 107, a temperature detection element 108, and a control unit 110.

  In addition, the battery pack includes a positive electrode terminal 121 and a negative electrode terminal 122. When charging, the positive electrode terminal 121 and the negative electrode terminal 122 are connected to the positive electrode terminal and the negative electrode terminal of the charger, respectively, and charging is performed. Further, when the electronic device is used, the positive electrode terminal 121 and the negative electrode terminal 122 are connected to the positive electrode terminal and the negative electrode terminal of the electronic device, respectively, and discharge is performed.

  The assembled battery 101 is formed by connecting a plurality of batteries 101a in series and / or in parallel. The battery 101a is a battery according to the present technology. In addition, in FIG. 8, although the case where the six batteries 101a are connected to 2 parallel 3 series (2P3S) is shown as an example, other than n parallel m series (n and m are integers), Any connection method may be used.

  The switch unit 104 includes a charge control switch 102a and a diode 102b, and a discharge control switch 103a and a diode 103b, and is controlled by the control unit 110. The diode 102b has a reverse polarity with respect to a charging current flowing from the positive electrode terminal 121 in the direction of the assembled battery 101 and a forward polarity with respect to a discharging current flowing from the negative electrode terminal 122 in the direction of the assembled battery 101. The diode 103b has a polarity in the forward direction with respect to the charging current and in the reverse direction with respect to the discharging current. In the example, the switch portion is provided on the + side, but may be provided on the − side.

  The charge control switch 102a is turned off when the battery voltage becomes the overcharge detection voltage, and is controlled by the charge / discharge control unit so that the charge current does not flow in the current path of the assembled battery 101. After the charging control switch is turned off, only discharging is possible via the diode 102b. Further, it is turned off when a large current flows during charging, and is controlled by the control unit 110 so as to cut off the charging current flowing in the current path of the assembled battery 101.

  The discharge control switch 103a is turned off when the battery voltage becomes the overdischarge detection voltage, and is controlled by the control unit 110 so that the discharge current does not flow in the current path of the assembled battery 101. After the discharge control switch 103a is turned off, only charging is possible via the diode 103b. Further, it is turned off when a large current flows during discharging, and is controlled by the control unit 110 so as to cut off the discharging current flowing through the current path of the assembled battery 101.

  The temperature detection element 108 is, for example, a thermistor, is provided in the vicinity of the assembled battery 101, measures the temperature of the assembled battery 101, and supplies the measured temperature to the control unit 110. The voltage detection unit 111 measures the voltage of the assembled battery 101 and each of the batteries 101a constituting the assembled battery 101, A / D converts this measurement voltage, and supplies the voltage to the control unit 110. The current measurement unit 113 measures current using the current detection resistor 107 and supplies this measurement current to the control unit 110.

  The switch control unit 114 controls the charge control switch 102a and the discharge control switch 103a of the switch unit 104 based on the voltage and current input from the voltage detection unit 111 and the current measurement unit 113. The switch control unit 114 sends a control signal to the switch unit 104 when any voltage of the battery 101a becomes equal to or lower than the overcharge detection voltage or the overdischarge detection voltage, or when a large current suddenly flows. Prevents overcharge, overdischarge, and overcurrent charge / discharge.

  As the charge / discharge switch, for example, a semiconductor switch such as a MOSFET can be used. In this case, the parasitic diode of the MOSFET functions as the diodes 102b and 103b. When a P-channel FET is used as the charge / discharge switch, the switch control unit 114 supplies control signals DO and CO to the respective gates of the charge control switch 102a and the discharge control switch 103a. When the charge control switch 102a and the discharge control switch 103a are P-channel type, they are turned on by a gate potential that is lower than the source potential by a predetermined value or more. That is, in normal charging and discharging operations, the control signals CO and DO are set to a low level, and the charging control switch 102a and the discharging control switch 103a are turned on.

  For example, in the case of overcharge or overdischarge, the control signals CO and DO are set to a high level, and the charge control switch 102a and the discharge control switch 103a are turned off.

  The memory 117 includes a RAM and a ROM, and includes, for example, an EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory) that is a nonvolatile memory. In the memory 117, numerical values calculated by the control unit 110, internal resistance values of the batteries in the initial state of each battery 101a measured in the manufacturing process, and the like are stored in advance, and can be appropriately rewritten. (In addition, by storing the full charge capacity of the battery 101a, for example, the remaining capacity can be calculated together with the control unit 110.

  The temperature detection unit 118 measures the temperature using the temperature detection element 108, performs charge / discharge control during abnormal heat generation, and performs correction in the calculation of the remaining capacity.

[Battery evaluation]
The battery voltage reaches 2.7 V at a constant current of 120 mA (140 mA in Reference Example 1-13 and 150 mA in Reference Example 1-14) in the 23 ° C. environment for the laminated film type batteries of each Reference Example and Comparative Example. After carrying out constant current charging until 5 hours at a constant voltage of 2.7 V, the battery thickness (initial thickness) was measured. Then, it preserve | saved for one week in a 60 degreeC environment. The battery thickness after storage at high temperature (thickness after storage) was measured, and the rate of increase in battery thickness after storage at high temperature was calculated from the following formula.
Battery thickness increase rate after storage at high temperature [%] = {(thickness after storage−initial thickness) / initial thickness} × 100

  The evaluation results are shown in Table 1.

As shown in Table 1, Reference Example 1-1 was added succinic anhydride in the electrolytic solution, when compared with Comparative Example 1-1 without the addition of succinic anhydride in the electrolytic solution, the battery thickness after high-temperature storage The rate of increase was less than half. Further, Reference Example 1-2 to Reference Example 1-4 in which propylene carbonate in the solvent was changed to ethylene carbonate, butylene carbonate, or γ-butyrolactone was also slightly inferior to Reference Example 1-1, but in Comparative Example 1-1. On the other hand, significant suppression of battery swelling was confirmed. In particular, Reference Example 1-3 and Reference Example 1-4, which were changed to butylene carbonate or γ-butyrolactone, had substantially the same effect as Reference Example 1-1, and propylene carbonate (PC) or butylene carbonate ( It has proved particularly preferable to use BC).

Although Reference Example 1-5 in which the addition amount of succinic anhydride was 0.1% by mass was inferior to Reference Example 1-1, it was confirmed that suppression of significant battery swelling was confirmed with respect to Comparative Example 1-1. did it. Further, it was found that Reference Example 1-6 in which the addition amount of succinic anhydride was 1.0% by mass can confirm the suppression of battery swelling higher than that of Reference Example 1-1, and is more preferable. .

Reference Example 1-7 and Reference Example 1-8, in which glutaric anhydride or phthalic anhydride, which are other cyclic carboxylic acid anhydrides, were mixed in the electrolyte instead of succinic anhydride, were referred to as Reference Example 1-1. Although somewhat inferior, it was confirmed that the battery swelling was significantly suppressed as compared with Comparative Example 1-1. In particular, Reference Example 1-7 using glutaric anhydride had substantially the same effect as Reference Example 1-1.

Furthermore, Reference Example 1-9 to Reference Example 1-12, in which vinylene carbonate (VC), which is an unsaturated cyclic carbonate, or fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), which is a halogenated ethylene carbonate, is further mixed as an additive B in the electrolyte solution. The swelling suppression effect equivalent to or more than that of Reference Example 1-1 was obtained. In particular, in Reference Example 1-9 and Reference Example 1-12 in which the additive B was added in an amount of 1.0% by mass, the suppression of battery swelling higher than that in Reference Example 1-1 could be confirmed. In Reference Example 1-10 in which the addition amount of the agent B was 0.1% by mass, it was possible to confirm further suppression of battery swelling.

Similarly, in the case of using lithium / nickel / cobalt / aluminum composite oxide as the positive electrode active material, from the comparison of Reference Example 1-13 and Comparative Example 1-4, Reference Example 1-14 and Comparative Example 1-5, The suppression of battery swelling was confirmed.

Even when lithium-titanium-niobium composite oxide was used as the negative electrode active material, suppression of battery swelling could be confirmed from comparison between Reference Example 1-15 and Comparative Example 1-6. Moreover, and Reference Examples 1-16 using lithium-titanium-magnesium composite oxide as the negative electrode active material, even in the case of Example 1-17 using lithium titanium composite oxide coated with carbon, Reference Example 1 It was possible to confirm the suppression of battery swelling equivalent to 15.

Further, for the reference example 1-18～ Reference Example 1-19 Ethyl methyl carbonate in the solvent was changed to ethyl acetate or methyl propionate, the blister suppressing effect substantially the same as the reference example 1-1 was confirmed.

On the other hand, from Comparative Example 1-2, even when succinic anhydride was added, the swelling suppression effect was not obtained when the negative electrode active material was a carbon material. Moreover, when acetic anhydride which is a chain carboxylic acid anhydride is added from Comparative Example 1-3, Comparative Example 1-3 using lithium / titanium composite oxide as a negative electrode active material is succinic anhydride. Although a small battery swelling suppression effect is obtained as compared with Comparative Example 1-1 in which no product is added, the battery swelling is significantly larger than in Reference Example 1-6 in which the same amount of succinic anhydride is added, and swelling swelling is suppressed. The effect was hardly obtained.

  From the above results, a material having a potential at full charge of 1.0 V or more and 1.6 V or less as a negative electrode active material as a negative electrode active material, and a potential of 1.6 V or more and 2.5 V or less as a counter electrode lithium potential in an electrolyte By adding an additive that decomposes to form a film on the negative electrode, it was possible to confirm suppression of battery swelling even after high-temperature storage.

< Reference Example 2-1> to < Reference Example 2-19>, <Comparative Example 2-1> to <Comparative Example 2-6>
In Reference Example 2-1 to Reference Example 2-19 and Comparative Example 2-1 to Comparative Example 2-6, a battery in a battery in which the same electrolyte as that of Reference Example 1-1 was held in a polymer material to form a gel electrolyte The characteristics were evaluated.

Reference Example 1 except that instead of a separator made of a microporous polyethylene film having a thickness of 16 μm, a separator in which 2 μm of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) was applied on both sides of a microporous polyethylene film having a thickness of 12 μm was used. -1 to Reference Example 1-19 and Comparative Example 1-1 to Comparative Example 1-6 were each used in the same manner to produce a laminate film type battery.

  At this time, after 4 g of the electrolyte solution was injected into the bag-shaped aluminum laminate film, sealing was performed while applying pressure and heating in a reduced pressure environment when heat-sealing one side of the bag-shaped aluminum laminate film. . As a result, the electrolytic solution was held on the polyvinylidene fluoride on the separator surface and gelled to produce a laminate film type battery on which a gel electrolyte layer was formed. This laminated film type battery had a battery capacity of 600 mAh.

[Battery evaluation]
For laminated film type battery of the Reference Examples and Comparative Examples, the same charging conditions and storage conditions as in Reference Example 1-1 (for charging current, 140 mA in Reference Example 2-13, 150 mA in Reference Example 2-14) The rate of increase in battery thickness after storage at high temperature was calculated.

  The evaluation results are shown in Table 2.

  As shown in Table 2, the increase in battery thickness after high-temperature storage was generally reduced by making the electrolyte into a gel. Also in this case, a lithium / titanium composite oxide having a potential at full charge of 1.0 V or more and 1.6 V or less as a negative electrode active material is used as the negative electrode active material, and 1.6 V or more at the counter electrode lithium potential as the gel electrolyte. By adding an additive such as a cyclic carboxylic acid anhydride that decomposes in the range of 0.5 V or less to form a film on the negative electrode, it was possible to confirm suppression of battery swelling even after high-temperature storage.
