Lithium secondary batteries are small, light chargeable batteries with a large storage capacity per unit volume or unit weight, and are used in a wide range of devices, including cell phones, laptop personal computers, personal digital assistances (PDAs) , video cameras, and digital cameras.
Lithium secondary batteries have thus become indispensable for various small-sized, light-weight portable devices having relatively large power consumption. Development is also underway for middle-sized or large-sized lithium batteries for installation in electric bicycles and electric automobiles, and the development of these lithium batteries is expected to provide a means to reduce the environmental load.

Conventionally, polar nonprotonic organic solvents that easily dissolve lithium salts and that do not easily undergo electrolysis have been used as the nonaqueous solvents for the nonaqueous electrolytic solution of lithium secondary batteries. However, there is a serious problem in battery safety, because these organic solvents have very low flash points, and may cause fire or explosion by the heat of overcharge or shorting. The safety problem has not been more important than it is today in the face of the urgent need for the development of large-capacity and high-output lithium secondary batteries in response to the development of smaller and lighter electronic devices and the development of electric automobiles. Use of a flame-retardant ionic liquid for the nonaqueous electrolytic solution of lithium secondary batteries has thus been investigated in many studies.

However, the lithium batteries using a combination of common graphitized carbon electrodes and the ionic liquid have higher internal resistance than the organic solvent batteries, and the output characteristics are poor. Further, the lifetime characteristics tend to be low for reasons attributable to, for example, deposition of the lithium and decomposed materials on the negative electrode surface. For these reasons, the performance levels are not sufficient for practical applications.

The positive electrode is obtained by first mixing the positive electrode active material with a conductive agent component. The powdery mixture is then added to a binder and dispersed therein. As required, a dispersion medium is added to dilute the mixture to a desired concentration.

The lithium secondary battery of the present invention may be formed into any shape, including a cylindrical shape, a coin shape, and a rectangular shape. The basic battery configuration remains the same irrespective of the shape, and the design may be changed according to the intended use. For example, in the case of a cylindrical battery, a negative electrode obtained by applying a negative electrode active material to the negative electrode collector, and a positive electrode obtained by applying a positive electrode active material to the positive electrode collector are wound around via a separator to prepare a wound unit. With the wound unit housed inside a battery canister, the nonaqueous electrolytic solution is injected, and the battery is sealed with the upper and lower insulating plates in place. In the case of a coin-shaped lithium secondary battery, a disc-shaped negative electrode, a separator, a disc-shaped positive electrode, and a stainless steel plate are laminated and housed inside a coin-shaped battery canister, and the battery is sealed after injecting the nonaqueous electrolytic solution.
