[0015] A description is given first of an electrolytic solution for a lithium-ion secondary battery according to one embodiment of the technology. Hereinafter, the electrolytic solution for a lithium-ion secondary battery according to the embodiment of the technology is simply referred to as an "electrolytic solution".
[0016] The lithium-ion secondary battery including the electrolytic solution to be described herein is a secondary battery that obtains a battery capacity by utilizing a lithium insertion phenomenon and a lithium extraction phenomenon, as will be described later.
<1-1. Configuration>
[0017] The electrolytic solution includes a solvent, an electrolyte salt, and an aminoanthraquinone polymer compound. Only one aminoanthraquinone polymer compound may be used, or two or more aminoanthraquinone polymer compounds may be used. In a similar manner, only one solvent may be used, or two or more solvents may be used, and only one electrolyte salt may be used, or two or more electrolyte salts may be used.
[Aminoanthraquinone Polymer Compound]
[0018] The aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is a polymer compound having two specific parts, i.e., two specific chemical structures are included.
Specifically, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound includes a first part (a divalent maleic anhydride part) represented by Formula (1) below and a second part (a divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part) represented by Formula (2) below.

each of R3 to R11 is one of a hydrogen group, a halogen group, a monovalent hydrocarbon group, and a monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group; and each of two bonds to which * is attached represents a dangling bond.
[0021] A configuration of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is not particularly limited as long as the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound includes both the divalent maleic anhydride part and the divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part. Note that only one divalent maleic anhydride part may be included in the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound, or two or more divalent maleic anhydride parts may be included in the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound.
In a similar manner, only one divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part may be Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 included in the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound, or two or more divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative parts may be included in the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound.
[0022] Note that, as described above, each of the two bonds to which * is attached in Formula (1) is a dangling bond. Accordingly, the divalent maleic anhydride part represented by Formula (1) is merely a part (a divalent group) of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound. In a similar manner, the divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part in which * is attached to each of the two bonds (the dangling bonds) in Formula (2) is also merely a part (a divalent group) of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound. Accordingly, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound may include only one or more divalent maleic anhydride parts and one or more divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative parts. Alternatively, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound may include one or more divalent maleic anhydride parts and one or more divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative parts together with one or more other parts (divalent groups). A configuration of the "other part" is not particularly limited, and will be described later.
[0023] In a case where the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound includes the other part (the divalent group), the divalent maleic anhydride parts may be directly bonded to each other without interposing the other part therebetween, or may be indirectly bonded to each other via the other part. In a similar manner, the divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative parts may be directly or indirectly bonded to each other, and the divalent maleic anhydride part and the divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part may also be directly or indirectly bonded to each other.
[0024] The aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is, for example, a copolymer of: a monomer including the divalent maleic anhydride part; a monomer including the divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part; and, if necessary, one or Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 more other monomers each including the other part.
[0025] In the case where the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is the copolymer, a polymerized form of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is not particularly limited.
Accordingly, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound may be a random copolymer, a block copolymer, or a graft copolymer as long as the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound includes both the divalent maleic anhydride part and the divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part.
[0026] A reason why the electrolytic solution includes the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is that a satisfactory film derived from the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is formed on a surface of each of the positive electrode and a negative electrode at the time of earlier cycles of charging and discharging of the lithium-ion secondary battery including the electrolytic solution, and such a film electrochemically protects each of the positive electrode and the negative electrode.
This improves chemical stability of the electrolytic solution, thereby reducing the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution. In this case, in particular, gas generation due to the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution is also reduced.
[0027] In detail, even if a low molecular weight material such as maleic anhydride to be described later is included in the electrolytic solution as an additive, the film is formed at the time of earlier cycles of charging and discharging.
However, use of the low molecular weight material causes a film having a chemically irregular structure to be formed, because the low molecular weight material is easily decomposed due to its electrochemical reaction at the time of earlier cycles of charging and discharging. Accordingly, chemical stability of the electrolytic solution is not improved sufficiently, and it is therefore difficult to sufficiently reduce the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution.
[0028] In contrast, inclusion of, as an additive, the aminoanthraquinone Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 polymer compound serving as a polymer material in the electrolytic solution causes the film to be formed at the time of earlier cycles of charging and discharging. In this case, use of the polymer material causes a film having a chemically regular structure to be formed, because electrochemical decomposition of the polymer material is suppressed at the time of earlier cycles of charging and discharging.
That is, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound serving as the polymer material covers the respective surfaces of the positive electrode and the negative electrode as it is without electrochemically reacting at the time of earlier cycles of charging and discharging, thereby forming the film having a dense structure resulting from the regular structure of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound.
This sufficiently improves chemical stability of the electrolytic solution, thereby sufficiently reducing the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution.
[0029] In particular, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound including a combination of the divalent maleic anhydride part and the divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part forms a film having a dense structure at the time of earlier cycles of charging and discharging more easily than a compound including a combination of two other parts. As a result, a side reaction in a high potential condition is markedly suppressed in the positive electrode where the film derived from the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is formed. Further, in the negative electrode where the film derived from the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is formed, a side reaction that occurs on the surface of the negative electrode is markedly reduced, which suppresses deviation of a balance between the charge capacity of the positive electrode and the charge capacity of the negative electrode from an appropriate balance even if charging and discharging are repeated.
[0030] Therefore, in a lithium-ion secondary battery in which the film derived from the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is formed, the decomposition Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 reaction of the electrolytic solution is markedly reduced even if such a lithium-ion secondary battery is charged and discharged in a severe environment such as a high-temperature environment or a low-temperature environment, or is stored in such a severe environment.
(Divalent Maleic Anhydride Part)
[0031] As described above, each of R1 and R2 is not particularly limited as long as each of R1 and R2 is one of a hydrogen group, a halogen group, a monovalent hydrocarbon group, and a monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group.
[0032] The halogen group is, for example, one of a fluorine group (-F), a chlorine group (-Cl), a bromine group (-Br), and an iodine group (-I).
[0033] The term "monovalent hydrocarbon group" is a generic term for a monovalent group including carbon (C) and hydrogen (H). The monovalent hydrocarbon group may have, for example: a straight-chain structure; a branched structure having one or more side chains; a cyclic structure; or a structure in a state in which two or more thereof are bonded to each other. The monovalent hydrocarbon group may include, for example, one or more carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds, or may include no carbon-carbon unsaturated bond. The carbon-carbon unsaturated bond includes a carbon-carbon double bond (>C=C<) and a carbon-carbon triple bond (-CC-).
[0034] Specific examples of the monovalent hydrocarbon group include an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an aryl group, and a monovalent bonded group. The "monovalent bonded group" is a monovalent group in which two or more of an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, a cycloalkyl group, and an aryl group are bonded to each other.
[0035] The alkyl group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, and a butyl group. The alkenyl group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include an Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 ethenyl group, a propenyl group, and a butenyl group. The alkynyl group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include an ethynyl group, a propynyl group, and a butynyl group. The cycloalkyl group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include a cyclopropyl group, a cyclobutyl group, a cyclopentyl group, and a cyclohexyl group. The aryl group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include a phenyl group and a naphthyl group. The monovalent bonded group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include a benzyl group.
[0036] The alkyl group has carbon number from 1 to 4, for example, although the carbon number of the alkyl group is not particularly limited. The alkenyl group and the alkynyl group each have carbon number from 2 to 4, for example, although the carbon number of each of the alkenyl group and the alkynyl group is not particularly limited. The cycloalkyl group has carbon number from 3 to 6, for example, although the carbon number of the cycloalkyl group is not particularly limited. The aryl group has carbon number from 6 to 14, for example, although the carbon number of the aryl group is not particularly limited. A reason for this is that solubility and compatibility of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound improve.
[0037] The monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group is a group in which one or more of hydrogen groups (-H) in the monovalent hydrocarbon group described above are substituted by a halogen group or halogen groups. Details of the halogen group included in the monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group are, for example, similar to those of the halogen group described above. Note that only one halogen group may be included in the monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group, or two or more halogen groups may be included in the monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group.

[0039]
Specifically, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is, for example, a compound represented by Formula (3) below. A reason for this is that it becomes easier for the film derived from the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound to be formed and also a structure of the film further improves. A

each of R12 to R24 is one of a hydrogen group, a halogen group, a monovalent hydrocarbon group, and a monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group;
each of X1 and X2 is one of a divalent hydrocarbon group and a divalent Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 halogenated hydrocarbon group; and each of n1 to n4 is an integer of 1 or greater.
[0041] The aminoanthraquinone polymer compound represented by Formula (3) is, for example, a copolymer in which the following polymer chains are bonded in the order stated below: a polymer chain (X1) which is a repeating unit including a group such as the divalent hydrocarbon group; a polymer chain which is a repeating unit of the divalent maleic anhydride part; a polymer chain (X2) which is a repeating unit including a group such as the divalent hydrocarbon group; and a polymer chain which is a repeating unit of the divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part. The aminoanthraquinone polymer compound represented by Formula (3) is a so-called block copolymer. Use of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound serving as the block copolymer makes it easier to reflect characteristics of the polymer chain derived from the divalent maleic anhydride part on characteristics of the film, while also making it easier to reflect characteristics of the polymer chain derived from the divalent aminoanthraquinone derivative part on the characteristics of the film. This improves physical strength and chemical strength of the film and makes the structure of the film denser.
[0042] As described above, each of R12 to R24 is not particularly limited as long as each of R12 to R24 is one of a hydrogen group, a halogen group, a monovalent hydrocarbon group, and a monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group.

[0044] The term "divalent hydrocarbon group" is a generic term for a divalent group including carbon and hydrogen. The divalent hydrocarbon group may have, Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 for example: a straight-chain structure; a branched structure having one or more side chains; a cyclic structure; or a structure in a state in which two or more thereof are bonded to each other. The divalent hydrocarbon group may include, for example, one or more carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds, or may include no carbon-carbon unsaturated bond.
[0045] Specific examples of the divalent hydrocarbon group include an alkylene group, an alkenylene group, an alkynylene group, a cycloalkylene group, an arylene group, and a divalent bonded group. The "divalent bonded group" is a divalent group in which two or more of an alkylene group, an alkenylene group, an alkynylene group, a cycloalkylene group, and an arylene group are bonded to each other.
[0046] The alkylene group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include a methylene group, an ethylene group, a propylene group, and a butylene group. The alkenylene group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include an ethenylene group, a propenylene group, and a butenylene group. The alkynylene group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include an ethynylene group, a propynylene group, and a butynylene group. The cycloalkylene group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include a cyclopropylene group, a cyclobutylene group, a cyclopentylene group, and a cyclohexylene group. The arylene group is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include a phenylene group and a naphthylene group.

[0047] The alkylene group has carbon number from 1 to 4, for example, although the carbon number of the alkylene group is not particularly limited.
The alkenylene group and the alkynylene group each have carbon number from 2 to 4, for example, although the carbon number of each of the alkenylene group and the Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 alkynylene group is not particularly limited. The cycloalkylene group has carbon number from 3 to 6, for example, although the carbon number of the cycloalkylene group is not particularly limited. The arylene group has carbon number from 6 to 14, for example, although the carbon number of the arylene group is not particularly limited. A reason for this is that the solubility and the compatibility of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound improve.
[0048] The divalent halogenated hydrocarbon group is a group in which one or more of hydrogen groups in the divalent hydrocarbon group described above are substituted by a halogen group or halogen groups. Details of the halogen group included in the divalent halogenated hydrocarbon group are similar to those of the halogen group included in the monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group described above, for example.
[0049] In particular, it is preferable that the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound represented by Formula (3) be a compound represented by Formula (4) below. A reason for this is that it becomes easier for the film derived from the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound to be formed and also the structure of the film further improves.

each of R25 and R26 is one of a hydrogen group, a halogen group, a monovalent hydrocarbon group, and a monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group; and each of n5 to n8 is an integer of 1 or greater.
[0051] The aminoanthraquinone polymer compound represented by Formula (4) is a compound in which each of R13 to R23 in Formula (3) is a hydrogen group and each of X1 and X2 in Formula (3) is an ethylene group. A reason for each of X1 and X2 being an ethylene group is that, as described above, properties including, without limitation, the solubility and the compatibility of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound improve.
[0052] As described above, each of R25 and R26 is not particularly limited as long as each of R25 and R26 is one of a hydrogen group, a halogen group, a monovalent hydrocarbon group, and a monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group.
Details of each of the halogen group, the monovalent hydrocarbon group, and the monovalent halogenated hydrocarbon group are as described above.
[0053] A value of each of n5 to n8 is not particularly limited as long as the value is an integer of 1 or greater. In particular, it is preferable that n5:n6:n7 be set to 1:1:1, and it is more preferable that n5:n6:n7:n8 be set to 1:1:1:1. A
reason for this is that properties including, without limitation, the solubility and the Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 compatibility of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound are secured and the chemical stability of the electrolytic solution also improves. Note that, in a case where n5:n6:n7 is 1:1:1, a ratio of n8 to each of n5, n6, and n7 may be set to any value.
(Molecular Weight)
[0054] A weight average molecular weight of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is not particularly limited, and may be set to any value. That is, the value of each of n1 to n4 in the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound represented by Formula (3) may be set to any number, as described above. Similarly, the value of each of n5 to n8 in the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound represented by Formula (4) may be set to any number, as described above. Specifically, the weight average molecular weight of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is, for example, 10000 to 1000000.
(Content)
[0055] A content of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound in the electrolytic solution is not particularly limited. In particular, the content of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is preferably higher than or equal to 0.1 wt% and lower than or equal to 10 wt%, and more preferably higher than or equal to 0.3 wt% and lower than or equal to 2 wt%. A reason for this is that properties including, without limitation, the solubility and the compatibility of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound are secured, and the chemical stability of the electrolytic solution also improves sufficiently.
[Solvent]
[0056] The solvent includes one or more of non-aqueous solvents (organic solvents), for example. An electrolytic solution including the non-aqueous solvent is a so-called non-aqueous electrolytic solution.
[0057] The non-aqueous solvent is not limited to a particular kind, and Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 examples thereof include a cyclic carbonate ester, a chain carbonate ester, a lactone, a chain carboxylate ester, and a nitrile (mononitrile) compound. Examples of the cyclic carbonate ester include ethylene carbonate and propylene carbonate.
Examples of the chain carbonate ester include dimethyl carbonate and diethyl carbonate. Examples of the lactone include y-butyrolactone and y-v alerolactone.
Examples of the chain carboxylate ester include methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, and methyl propionate. Examples of the nitrile compound include acetonitrile, methoxy acetonitrile, and 3-methoxy propionitrile.
[0058] Examples of the non-aqueous solvent further include an unsaturated cyclic carbonate ester, a halogenated carbonate ester, a sulfonate ester, an acid anhydride, a dicyano compound (a dinitrile compound), a diisocyanate compound, and a phosphate ester. Examples of the unsaturated cyclic carbonate ester include vinylene carbonate, vinyl ethylene carbonate, and methylene ethylene carbonate.
Examples of the halogenated carbonate ester include 4-fluoro-1,3-dioxolane-2-one, 4,5-difluoro-1,3-dioxolane-2-one, and fluoromethyl methyl carbonate. Examples of the sulfonate ester include 1,3-propane sultone and 1,3-propene sultone.

Examples of the dinitrile compound include succinonitrile, glutaronitrile, adiponitrile, and phthalonitrile. Examples of the diisocyanate compound include hexamethylene diisocyanate. Examples of the phosphate ester include trimethyl phosphate and triethyl phosphate.
[Electrolyte Salt]
[0059] The electrolyte salt includes one or more of lithium salts, for example.
The lithium salt is not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4), lithium Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiN(SO2F)2), lithium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide (LiN(CF3S02)2), lithium difluorophosphate (LiPF202), and lithium fluorophosphate (Li2PF03). A content of the electrolyte salt is, for example, more than or equal to 0.3 mol/kg and less than or equal to 3.0 mol/kg with respect to the solvent, but is not particularly limited thereto.
<1-2. Manufacturing Method>
[0060] In a case of manufacturing the electrolytic solution, the electrolyte salt is added to the solvent, following which the solvent is stirred. Thus, the electrolyte salt is dispersed or dissolved into the solvent.
Thereafter, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is added to the solvent in which the electrolyte salt is dispersed or dissolved, following which the solvent is stirred.
The aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is thereby dispersed or dissolved in the solvent. As a result, the electrolytic solution is obtained that includes the solvent, the electrolyte salt, and the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound.
<1-3. Action and Effects>
[0061] The electrolytic solution includes the solvent, the electrolyte salt, and the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound. In this case, as described above, the satisfactory film is formed in such a manner as to cover each of the positive electrode and the negative electrode at the time of earlier cycles of charging and discharging of the lithium-ion secondary battery including the electrolytic solution.
This improves the chemical stability of the electrolytic solution as compared with a case where the electrolytic solution includes no aminoanthraquinone polymer compound and a case where the electrolytic solution includes another compound other than the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound, thereby reducing the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution. The other compound described here includes, for example, a low molecular weight material such as maleic anhydride described above. Accordingly, it is possible to improve battery Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 characteristics of the lithium-ion secondary battery including the electrolytic solution.
[0062] In particular, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound may be the compound represented by Formula (3). This makes it easier to form the film and also improves the structure of the film, which makes it possible to achieve higher effects accordingly. In this case, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound may be the compound represented by Formula (4). In this case, the film is more easily formed and the structure of the film further improves, which makes it possible to achieve further higher effects accordingly.
[0063] Further, the content of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound in the electrolytic solution may be higher than or equal to 0.1 wt% and lower than or equal to 10 wt%. This secures properties such as the solubility of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound and also sufficiently improves the chemical stability of the electrolytic solution. It is possible to achieve higher effects accordingly.
<2. Lithium-ion Secondary Battery>
[0064] Next, a description is given of a lithium-ion secondary battery according to one embodiment of the technology including the electrolytic solution according to the embodiment of the technology described above.
[0065] The lithium-ion secondary battery described below includes a positive electrode 21 and a negative electrode 22, which will be described later. The lithium-ion secondary battery obtains a battery capacity by utilizing a lithium insertion phenomenon and a lithium extraction phenomenon, as described above.
More specifically, the lithium-ion secondary battery obtains, for example, a capacity of the negative electrode 22 by utilizing the lithium insertion phenomenon and the lithium extraction phenomenon.
[0066] In such a lithium-ion secondary battery, a charge capacity of the Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 negative electrode 22 is greater than a discharge capacity of the positive electrode 21, in order to prevent unintentional precipitation of lithium metal on a surface of the negative electrode 22 during charging, for example. In other words, an electrochemical capacity per unit area of the negative electrode 22 is greater than an electrochemical capacity per unit area of the positive electrode 21.
<2-1. Cylindrical Type>
[0067] A
description is given first of a cylindrical lithium-ion secondary battery as an example of the lithium-ion secondary battery.
<2-1-1. Configuration>
[0068] FIG. 1 illustrates a sectional configuration of the lithium-ion secondary battery. FIG. 2 illustrates an enlarged sectional configuration of a main part, i.e., a wound electrode body 20, of the lithium-ion secondary battery illustrated in FIG.
1. Note that FIG. 2 illustrates only a part of the wound electrode body 20.
[0069] Referring to FIG. 1, the lithium-ion secondary battery is provided with a battery can 11 that has a cylindrical shape, for example. The battery can 11 contains the wound electrode body 20, for example. The wound electrode body 20 serves as a battery device.
[0070]
Specifically, the lithium-ion secondary battery includes a pair of insulating plates 12 and 13 and the wound electrode body 20 that are provided in the battery can 11, for example. The wound electrode body 20 is a structure in which, for example, the positive electrode 21 and the negative electrode 22 are stacked on each other with a separator 23 interposed therebetween, and also in which the stack of the positive electrode 21, the negative electrode 22, and the separator 23 is wound. The wound electrode body 20 is impregnated with an electrolytic solution. The electrolytic solution is a liquid electrolyte.
[0071] The battery can 11 has a hollow cylindrical structure having a closed end and an open end, for example. The battery can 11 includes, for example, a Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 metal material such as iron. For example, the battery can 11 has a surface that may be plated with a metal material such as nickel. The insulating plate 12 and the insulating plate 13 each extend in a direction intersecting a wound peripheral surface of the wound electrode body 20, for example. The insulating plate 12 and the insulating plate 13 are disposed in such a manner as to interpose the wound electrode body 20 therebetween, for example.
[0072] A battery cover 14, a safety valve mechanism 15, and a positive temperature coefficient device (PTC device) 16 are crimped at the open end of the battery can 11 by means of a gasket 17, for example, thereby sealing the open end of the battery can 11. The battery cover 14 includes a material similar to a material included in the battery can 11, for example. The safety valve mechanism 15 and the positive temperature coefficient device 16 are each disposed on an inner side of the battery cover 14. The safety valve mechanism 15 is electrically coupled to the battery cover 14 via the positive temperature coefficient device 16. For example, when an internal pressure of the battery can 11 reaches a certain level or higher as a result of causes including, without limitation, internal short circuit and heating from outside, a disk plate 15A inverts in the safety valve mechanism 15, thereby cutting off the electrical coupling between the battery cover 14 and the wound electrode body 20. The positive temperature coefficient device 16 involves an increase in resistance in accordance with a rise in temperature, in order to prevent abnormal heat generation resulting from a large current. The gasket 17 includes an insulating material, for example. The gasket 17 may have a surface on which a material such as asphalt is applied, for example.
[0073] A center pin 24 is disposed in a space 20C provided at the winding center of the wound electrode body 20, for example. Note, however, that the center pin 24 may not necessarily be disposed in the space 20C. A positive electrode lead 25 is coupled to the positive electrode 21. The positive electrode Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 lead 25 includes an electrically conductive material such as aluminum. The positive electrode lead 25 is electrically coupled to the battery cover 14 via the safety valve mechanism 15, for example. A negative electrode lead 26 is coupled to the negative electrode 22. The negative electrode lead 26 includes an electrically conductive material such as nickel. The negative electrode lead 26 is electrically coupled to the battery can 11, for example.
[Positive Electrode]
[0074] As illustrated in FIG. 2, the positive electrode 21 includes, for example, a positive electrode current collector 21A, and a positive electrode active material layer 21B provided on the positive electrode current collector 21A. The positive electrode active material layer 21B may be provided, for example, only on one side of the positive electrode current collector 21A, or on each of both sides of the positive electrode current collector 21A. FIG. 2 illustrates a case where the positive electrode active material layer 21B is provided on each of the both sides of the positive electrode current collector 21A, for example.
[0075] The positive electrode current collector 21A includes, for example, an electrically conductive material such as aluminum. The positive electrode active material layer 21B includes, as a positive electrode active material or positive electrode active materials, one or more of positive electrode materials into which lithium is insertable and from which lithium is extractable. The positive electrode active material layer 21B may further include one or more of other materials, examples of which include a positive electrode binder and a positive electrode conductor.
[0076] The positive electrode material includes a lithium compound, for example. The term "lithium compound" is a generic term for a compound that includes lithium as a constituent element. A reason for this is that a high energy density is achievable. The lithium compound is not limited to a particular kind, Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 and examples thereof include a lithium composite oxide and a lithium phosphate compound.
[0077] The term "lithium composite oxide" is a generic term for an oxide that includes, as constituent elements, lithium and one or more of other elements.
The lithium composite oxide has any of crystal structures including, without limitation, a layered rock-salt crystal structure and a spinel crystal structure, for example.
The term "lithium phosphate compound" is a generic term for a phosphate compound that includes, as constituent elements, lithium and one or more of the other elements. The lithium phosphate compound has a crystal structure such as an olivine crystal structure, for example.
[0078] The other elements are elements other than lithium. The other elements are not limited to particular kinds; however, it is preferable that the other elements belong to groups 2 to 15 in the long periodic table of elements, in particular. A reason for this is that a higher voltage is obtainable. Specific examples of the other elements include nickel, cobalt, manganese, and iron.
[0079] Examples of the lithium composite oxide having the layered rock-salt crystal structure include LiNi02, LiCo02, LiCo0.98Alo.oiMgo.0102, LiNi0.5Co0.2Mno.302, LiNi0.8Coo.15A10.0502, LiNi0.33Co0.33Mno.3302, Lii.2Mn0.52Coo.175Nio.102, and Lii.15(Mn0.65Ni0.22Co0.13)02. Examples of the lithium composite oxide having the spinel crystal structure include LiMn204.
Examples of the lithium phosphate compound having the olivine crystal structure include LiFePat, LiMnPO4, LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4, LiMn0.7Fe0.3PO4, and LiMn0.75Feo.251)04.
[0080] In particular, it is preferable that the lithium compound be a lithium manganese iron phosphate compound represented by Formula (11) below. The lithium manganese iron phosphate compound is a phosphate compound that includes, as constituent elements, lithium (Li), manganese (Mn), and iron (Fe).

Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 The lithium manganese iron phosphate compound may further include one or more of other metal elements (M11) as constituent elements. A reason for this is that the lithium manganese iron phosphate compound is markedly stable upon charging and discharging, thereby making it easier for the charging and discharging reactions to proceed stably.
[0081] LiMnõFeyM 1 1 i_x_yPat ... (11) where:
Mll is at least one of cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), boron (B), titanium (Ti), vanadium (V), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), molybdenum (Mo), tin (Sn), calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), or tungsten (W);
and x and y satisfy 0 < x < 1 and 0 < y < 1.
[0082] Specific examples of the lithium manganese iron phosphate compound include: LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4, LiMn0.7Fe0.3PO4, and LiMn0.75Fe0.25PO4, which do not include the other metal elements (M11) as constituent elements; and LiMn0.75Feo.204go.05F04, which includes a metal element (M11) as a constituent element.
[0083] The positive electrode binder includes materials including, without limitation, a synthetic rubber and a polymer compound, for example. Examples of the synthetic rubber include a styrene-butadiene-based rubber. Examples of the polymer compound include polyvinylidene difluoride and polyimide.
[0084] The positive electrode conductor includes, for example, an electrically conductive material such as a carbon material. Examples of the carbon material include graphite, carbon black, acetylene black, and Ketjen black. The positive electrode conductor may include a material such as a metal material or an electrically conductive polymer.
[Negative Electrode]
Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26
[0085] As illustrated in FIG. 2, the negative electrode 22 includes, for example, a negative electrode current collector 22A, and a negative electrode active material layer 22B provided on the negative electrode current collector 22A. The negative electrode active material layer 22B may be provided, for example, only on one side of the negative electrode current collector 22A, or on each of both sides of the negative electrode current collector 22A. FIG. 2 illustrates a case where the negative electrode active material layer 22B is provided on each of the both sides of the negative electrode current collector 22A, for example.
[0086] The negative electrode current collector 22A includes, for example, an electrically conductive material such as copper. It is preferable that the negative electrode current collector 22A have a surface roughened by a method such as an electrolysis method. A reason for this is that improved adherence of the negative electrode active material layer 22B to the negative electrode current collector 22A
is achievable by utilizing an anchor effect.
[0087] The negative electrode active material layer 22B includes, as a negative electrode active material or negative electrode active materials, one or more of negative electrode materials into which lithium is insertable and from which lithium is extractable. The negative electrode active material layer 22B may further include another material, examples of which include a negative electrode binder and a negative electrode conductor.
[0088] Examples of the negative electrode materials include a carbon material, a metal-based material, a titanium-containing compound, and a niobium-containing compound. Note that a material corresponding to the titanium-containing compound and a material corresponding to the niobium-containing compound are excluded from the metal-based material.
[0089] The term "carbon material" is a generic term for a material including carbon as a constituent element. A reason for this is that a high energy density is Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 stably obtainable owing to the crystal structure of the carbon material which hardly varies upon insertion and extraction of lithium. Another reason is that an improved electrically conductive property of the negative electrode active material layer 22B is achievable owing to the carbon material which also serves as the negative electrode conductor.
[0090] Specific examples of the carbon material include graphitizable carbon, non-graphitizable carbon, and graphite. Spacing of a (002) plane of the non-graphitizable carbon is, for example, greater than or equal to 0.37 nm, and spacing of a (002) plane of the graphite is, for example, smaller than or equal to 0.34 nm.
[0091] More specific examples of the carbon material include pyrolytic carbons, cokes, glassy carbon fibers, an organic polymer compound fired body, activated carbon, and carbon blacks. Examples of the cokes include pitch coke, needle coke, and petroleum coke. The organic polymer compound fired body is a resultant of firing or carbonizing a polymer compound such as a phenol resin or a furan resin at any temperature. Other than the above, the carbon material may be low-crystalline carbon heat-treated at a temperature of about 1000 C or lower, or may be amorphous carbon, for example. The carbon material has a shape such as a fibrous shape, a spherical shape, a granular shape, or a scale-like shape.
[0092] The term "metal-based material" is a generic term for a material including one or more of metal elements and metalloid elements as constituent elements. A reason for this is that a high energy density is achievable.
[0093] The metal-based material may be a simple substance, an alloy, a compound, a mixture of two or more thereof, or a material including one or more phases thereof. Note that the term "alloy" encompasses not only a material that includes two or more metal elements but also a material that includes one or more metal elements and one or more metalloid elements. The alloy may further include one or more non-metallic elements. The metal-based material has a state such as Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 a solid solution, a eutectic (a eutectic mixture), an intermetallic compound, or a state including two or more thereof that coexist.
[0094] The metal element and the metalloid element are each able to form an alloy with lithium. Specific examples of the metal element and the metalloid element include magnesium, boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, silicon, germanium, tin, lead, bismuth, cadmium, silver, zinc, hafnium, zirconium, yttrium, palladium, and platinum.
[0095] Among the above-described materials, silicon or tin is preferable, and silicon is more preferable. A reason for this is that a markedly high energy density is obtainable owing to superior lithium insertion capacity and superior lithium extraction capacity thereof.
[0096] The metal-based material may specifically be a simple substance of silicon, a silicon alloy, a silicon compound, a simple substance of tin, a tin alloy, a tin compound, a mixture of two or more thereof, or a material including one or more phases thereof. The simple substance described here merely refers to a simple substance in a general sense. The simple substance may therefore include a small amount of impurity, that is, does not necessarily have a purity of 100%.
[0097] The silicon alloy includes, as a constituent element or constituent elements other than silicon, for example, one or more of tin, nickel, copper, iron, cobalt, manganese, zinc, indium, silver, titanium, germanium, bismuth, antimony, and chromium. The silicon compound includes, as a constituent element or constituent elements other than silicon, for example, one or both of carbon and oxygen. The silicon compound may include, as a constituent element or constituent elements other than silicon, any of the constituent elements described in relation to the silicon alloy, for example.
[0098] Specific examples of the silicon alloy and the silicon compound include SiB4, SiB6, Mg2Si, Ni2Si, TiSi2, MoSi2, CoSi2, NiSi2, CaSi2, CrSi2, CusSi, FeSi2, Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 MnSi2, NbSi2, TaSi2, VSi2, WSi2, ZnSi2, SiC, Si3N4, Si2N20, and SiOv (where 0 <v 2). Note, however, that a range of "v" may be 0.2 <v < 1.4, in one example.
[0099] The tin alloy includes, as a constituent element or constituent elements other than tin, for example, one or more of silicon, nickel, copper, iron, cobalt, manganese, zinc, indium, silver, titanium, germanium, bismuth, antimony, and chromium. The tin compound includes, as a constituent element or constituent elements other than tin, for example, one or both of carbon and oxygen. The tin compound may include, as a constituent element or constituent elements other than tin, any of the constituent elements described in relation to the tin alloy, for example.
[0100] Specific examples of the tin alloy and the tin compound include SnOw (where 0 <v < 2), SnSiO3, and Mg2Sn.
[0101] The term "titanium-containing compound" is a generic term for a material that includes titanium (Ti) as a constituent element. A reason for this is that the titanium-containing compound is electrochemically stable as compared with, for example, a material such as a carbon material, thereby having electrochemically low reactivity. This reduces a decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution associated with reactivity of the negative electrode 22.

Specific examples of the titanium-containing compound include a titanium oxide, a lithium-titanium composite oxide, and a hydrogen-titanium compound.
[0102] The titanium oxide is, for example, a compound represented by Formula (21) below, that is, for example, a bronze-type titanium oxide.
[0103] TiOw ... (21) where w satisfies 1.85 < w < 2.15.
[0104] The titanium oxide (TiO2) may be, for example, an anatase-type titanium oxide, a rutile-type titanium oxide, or a brookite-type titanium oxide.
However, the titanium oxide may also be a composite oxide including, as constituent elements, titanium and one or more of phosphorus, vanadium, tin, Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 copper, nickel, iron, and cobalt. Examples of the composite oxide include TiO2-P205, TiO2-V205, TiO2-P205-Sn02, and TiO2-P205-Me0. Me includes, for example, one or more of elements including, without limitation, copper, nickel, iron, and cobalt. Note that a potential at which lithium is inserted into or extracted from the titanium oxide is, for example, 1 V to 2 V (vs Li/Lit).
[0105] The term "lithium titanium composite oxide" is a generic term for a composite oxide that includes lithium and titanium as constituent elements.
Specific examples of the lithium-titanium composite oxide include respective compounds represented by Formulae (22) to (24) below, i.e., ramsdellite-type lithium titanium oxides, for example. M22 included in Formula (22) is a metal element that is to be a divalent ion. M23 included in Formula (23) is a metal element that is to be a trivalent ion. M24 included in Formula (24) is a metal element that is to be a tetravalent ion.
[0106] Li [LixM220 -302Ti(3+x)/21 04 ... (22) where:
M22 is at least one of magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), or strontium (Sr); and x satisfies 0 <x < 1/3.
[0107] Li[LiyM231_3yTii+2y104 ... (23) where:
M23 is at least one of aluminum (Al), scandium (Sc), chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), germanium (Ga), or yttrium (Y); and y satisfies 0 < y < 1/3.

M24 is at least one of vanadium (V), zirconium (Zr), or niobium (Nb); and z satisfies 0 <z <2/3.
Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26
[0109] A crystal structure of the lithium-titanium composite oxide is not particularly limited; however, it is preferable that the lithium-titanium composite oxide have a spinel crystal structure. A reason for this is that the crystal structure is prevented from varying easily upon charging and discharging, thereby stabilizing battery characteristics.
[0110] Specific examples of the lithium-titanium composite oxide represented by Formula (22) include Li3.75Ti4.875Mg0.375012. Specific examples of the lithium-titanium composite oxide represented by Formula (23) include LiCrTiat.
Specific examples of the lithium-titanium composite oxide represented by Formula (24) include Li4Ti5012 and Li4Ti4.95Nbo.05012.
[0111] The term "hydrogen-titanium compound" is a generic term for a composite oxide that includes hydrogen and titanium as constituent elements.
Specific examples of the hydrogen-titanium compound include H2Ti307(3Ti02.1H20), H6Tii2027(3Ti02Ø75H20), H2Ti6013(3Ti02Ø5H20), H2Ti7015(3Ti02Ø43H20), and H2Tii2025(3Ti02Ø25H20).
[0112] The term "niobium-containing compound" is a generic term for a material that includes niobium (Nb) as a constituent element. Examples of the niobium-containing compound include a lithium-niobium composite oxide, a hydrogen-niobium compound, and a titanium-niobium composite oxide. A reason for this is that the niobium-containing compound is electrochemically stable, as with the titanium-containing compound described above, thereby reducing the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution associated with reactivity of the negative electrode 22. Note that a material corresponding to the niobium-containing compound is excluded from the titanium-containing compound.
[0113] The term "lithium-niobium composite oxide" is a generic term for a composite oxide that includes lithium and niobium as constituent elements, and examples thereof include LiNb02. The term "hydrogen-niobium compound" is a Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 generic term for a composite oxide that includes hydrogen and titanium as constituent elements, and examples thereof include 1-14Nb6017. The term "titanium-niobium composite oxide" is a generic term for a composite oxide that includes, for example, titanium and niobium as constituent elements, and examples thereof include TiNb207 and Ti2Nbi0029. The titanium-niobium composite oxide may intercalate, for example, lithium. An amount of intercalated lithium with respect to the titanium-niobium composite oxide is not particularly limited.
For example, the amount of lithium to be intercalated into TiNb207 is up to four equivalents relative to TiNb207.The titanium-niobium composite oxide may be intercalated with, for example, lithium. An amount of intercalation of lithium with respect to titanium-niobium composite oxide is not particularly limited; however, for example, the amount of intercalation of lithium with respect to TiNb207 is four equivalents at a maximum with respect to TiNb207.
[0114] In particular, it is preferable that the negative electrode material be one or more of a titanium oxide, a lithium-titanium composite oxide, a hydrogen-titanium compound, a lithium-niobium composite oxide, a hydrogen-niobium compound, and a titanium-niobium composite oxide. A reason for this is that the material such as the titanium oxide is electrochemically stable, thereby reducing the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution associated with reactivity of the negative electrode 22, as described above.
[0115] Details of the negative electrode binder are similar to those of the positive electrode binder, for example. Details of the negative electrode conductor are similar to those of the positive electrode conductor, for example.
(Method of Forming Negative Electrode Active Material Layer)
[0116] A method of forming the negative electrode active material layer 22B is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a coating method, a vapor-phase method, a liquid-phase method, a thermal spraying method, and a firing Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 (sintering) method. For example, the coating method involves coating the negative electrode current collector 22A with a solution in which a mixture of materials including, without limitation, a particulate or powdered negative electrode active material and the negative electrode binder is dispersed or dissolved in a solvent such as an organic solvent. Examples of the vapor-phase method include a physical deposition method and a chemical deposition method. More specific examples of the vapor-phase method include a vacuum deposition method, a sputtering method, an ion plating method, a laser ablation method, a thermal chemical vapor deposition method, a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, and a plasma chemical vapor deposition method. Examples of the liquid-phase method include an electrolytic plating method and an electroless plating method. The thermal spraying method involves spraying a fused or semi-fused negative electrode active material onto the negative electrode current collector 22A. The firing method involves applying a solution onto the negative electrode current collector 22A by the coating method, and thereafter subjecting the applied solution (a coating) to heat treatment at a temperature higher than a melting point of a material such as the negative electrode binder, for example. More specific examples of the firing method include an atmosphere firing method, a reactive firing method, and a hot-press firing method.
[Separator]
[0117] The separator 23 includes a porous film of a material such as a synthetic resin or ceramic, for example. The separator 23 may be a stacked film including two or more porous films that are stacked on each other, in one example.
Examples of the synthetic resin include polyethylene.
[0118] In particular, the separator 23 may include the porous film and a polymer compound layer, for example. The porous film serves as a base layer. The polymer compound layer is provided on one side or on each of both sides of the Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 base layer, for example. A reason for this is that adherence of the separator 23 to the positive electrode 21 improves and adherence of the separator 23 to the negative electrode 22 also improves to suppress distortion of the wound electrode body 20.
This reduces a decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution and also reduces leakage of the electrolytic solution with which the base layer is impregnated.
[0119] The polymer compound layer includes a polymer compound such as polyvinylidene difluoride, for example. A reason for this is that such a polymer compound has superior physical strength and is electrochemically stable. For example, the polymer compound layer may include insulating particles such as inorganic particles. A reason for this is that safety improves. The inorganic particles are not limited to a particular kind, and examples thereof include aluminum oxide and aluminum nitride.
[Electrolytic Solution]
[0120] The wound electrode body 20 is impregnated with the electrolytic solution, as described above. Accordingly, the separator 23 is impregnated with the electrolytic solution, and the positive electrode 21 and the negative electrode 22 are also each impregnated with the electrolytic solution, for example. A configuration of the electrolytic solution is as described above.
<2-1-2. Operation>
[0121] Upon charging the lithium-ion secondary battery, for example, lithium ions are extracted from the positive electrode 21, and the extracted lithium ions are inserted into the negative electrode 22 via the electrolytic solution. Upon discharging the lithium-ion secondary battery, for example, lithium ions are extracted from the negative electrode 22, and the extracted lithium ions are inserted into the positive electrode 21 via the electrolytic solution.
<2-1-3. Manufacturing Method>
[0122] The lithium-ion secondary battery is manufactured by the following Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 procedure, for example. Fabrication of the positive electrode 21, fabrication of the negative electrode 22, and preparation of the electrolytic solution are performed, following which assembly of the lithium-ion secondary battery is performed.
[Fabrication of Positive Electrode]
[0123] First, the positive electrode active material is mixed with materials including, without limitation, the positive electrode binder and the positive electrode conductor on an as-needed basis to thereby obtain a positive electrode mixture. Thereafter, the positive electrode mixture is dispersed or dissolved into a solvent such as an organic solvent to thereby prepare a paste positive electrode mixture slurry. Lastly, the positive electrode mixture slurry is applied on both sides of the positive electrode current collector 21A, following which the applied positive electrode mixture slurry is dried to thereby form the positive electrode active material layers 21B. Thereafter, the positive electrode active material layers 21B may be compression-molded by means of a machine such as a roll pressing machine. In this case, the positive electrode active material layers may be heated. The positive electrode active material layers 21B may be compression-molded a plurality of times.
[Fabrication of Negative Electrode]
[0124] The negative electrode active material layers 22B are formed on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 22A by a procedure similar to the fabrication procedure of the positive electrode 21 described above.
Specifically, the negative electrode active material is mixed with materials including, without limitation, the negative electrode positive electrode binder and the negative electrode conductor on an as-needed basis to thereby obtain a negative electrode mixture. Thereafter, the negative electrode mixture is dispersed or dissolved into a solvent such as an organic solvent to thereby prepare a paste negative electrode mixture slurry. Thereafter, the negative electrode mixture slurry is applied on both Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 sides of the negative electrode current collector 22A, following which the applied negative electrode mixture slurry is dried to thereby form the negative electrode active material layers 22B. Thereafter, the negative electrode active material layers 22B may be compression-molded.
[Preparation of Electrolytic Solution]
[0125] The electrolyte salt is added to a solvent and the solvent is stirred.
Thereafter, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound is added to the solvent and the solvent is further stirred. Thus, the electrolyte salt and the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound are each dispersed or dissolved in the solvent.
[Assembly of Lithium-ion Secondary Battery]
[0126] First, the positive electrode lead 25 is coupled to the positive electrode current collector 21A by a method such as a welding method, and the negative electrode lead 26 is coupled to the negative electrode current collector 22A
by a method such as a welding method. Thereafter, the positive electrode 21 and the negative electrode 22 are stacked on each other with the separator 23 interposed therebetween, following which the positive electrode 21, the negative electrode 22, and the separator 23 are wound to thereby form a wound body. Thereafter, the center pin 24 is disposed in the space 20C provided at the winding center of the wound body.
[0127]
Thereafter, the wound body is interposed between the pair of insulating plates 12 and 13, and the wound body in that state is contained in the battery can 11 together with the insulating plates 12 and 13. In this case, the positive electrode lead 25 is coupled to the safety valve mechanism 15 by a method such as a welding method, and the negative electrode lead 26 is coupled to the battery can 11 by a method such as a welding method. Thereafter, the electrolytic solution is injected into the battery can 11 to thereby impregnate the wound body with the electrolytic Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 solution, causing each of the positive electrode 21, the negative electrode 22, and the separator 23 to be impregnated with the electrolytic solution. As a result, the wound electrode body 20 is formed.
[0128] Lastly, the open end of the battery can 11 is crimped by means of the gasket 17 to thereby attach the battery cover 14, the safety valve mechanism 15, and the positive temperature coefficient device 16 to the open end of the battery can 11. Thus, the wound electrode body 20 is sealed in the battery can 11. As a result, the lithium-ion secondary battery is completed.
<2-1-4. Action and Effects>
[0129] According to the cylindrical lithium-ion secondary battery, the electrolytic solution has a configuration similar to that of the electrolytic solution according to the embodiment of the technology described above, i.e., the electrolytic solution includes the solvent, the electrolyte salt, and the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound. This reduces the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution for the reason described above.
Accordingly, it is possible to achieve superior battery characteristics.
[0130] In particular, the positive electrode 21 may include the lithium manganese iron phosphate compound as the positive electrode active material, and the negative electrode 22 may include a material such as the titanium oxide as the negative electrode active material. This also reduces the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution owing to the electrochemical stability (low reactivity) of each of the positive electrode active material and the negative electrode active material, making it possible to achieve higher effects accordingly.
[0131] Other action and effects related to the cylindrical lithium-ion secondary battery are similar to those related to the electrolytic solution.
<2-2. Laminated-film Type>
[0132] Next, a description is given of a laminated lithium-ion secondary battery Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 as another example of the lithium-ion secondary battery. In the following description, the components of the cylindrical lithium-ion secondary battery described already are referred to where appropriate with reference to FIGs. 1 and 2.
[0133] FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a configuration of another lithium-ion secondary battery. FIG. 4 is an enlarged sectional configuration of a main part, i.e., a wound electrode body 30, of the lithium-ion secondary battery taken along a line IV-IV illustrated in FIG. 3. Note that FIG. 3 illustrates a state in which the wound electrode body 30 and an outer package member 40 are separated away from each other.
<2-2-1. Configuration>
[0134] Referring to FIG. 3, the lithium-ion secondary battery is provided with the outer package member 40 that has a film shape. The outer package member 40 contains a battery device, i.e., the wound electrode body 30. The outer package member 40 has softness or flexibility.
[0135] The wound electrode body 30 has a structure in which a positive electrode 33 and a negative electrode 34 are stacked on each other with a separator 35 and an electrolyte layer 36 interposed therebetween and in which the positive electrode 33, the negative electrode 34, the separator 35, and the electrolyte layer 36 are wound, for example. A surface of the wound electrode body 30 is protected by means of, for example, a protective tape 37. The electrolyte layer 36 is interposed between the positive electrode 33 and the separator 35, and is also interposed between the negative electrode 34 and the separator 35, for example.
[0136] A positive electrode lead 31 is coupled to the positive electrode 33.
The positive electrode lead 31 is led out from inside to outside of the outer package member 40. The positive electrode lead 31 includes a material similar to a material included in the positive electrode lead 25, for example. The positive electrode lead 31 has a shape such as a thin-plate shape or a meshed shape.

Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26
[0137] A negative electrode lead 32 is coupled to the negative electrode 34.
The negative electrode lead 32 is led out from the inside to the outside of the outer package member 40. The direction in which the negative electrode lead 32 is led out is similar to that of the positive electrode lead 31, for example. The negative electrode lead 32 includes a material similar to a material included in the negative electrode lead 26. The negative electrode lead 32 has a shape similar to that of the positive electrode lead 31, for example.
[Outer Package Member]
[0138] The outer package member 40 is, for example, a single film that is foldable in a direction of an arrow R illustrated in FIG. 3. The outer package member 40 includes a portion having a depression 40U, for example. The depression 40U is adapted to contain the wound electrode body 30.
[0139] The outer package member 40 is a stacked body or a laminated film including, for example, a fusion-bonding layer, a metal layer, and a surface protective layer that are stacked in this order from an inner side to an outer side.
In a process of manufacturing the lithium-ion secondary battery, for example, the outer package member 40 is folded in such a manner that portions of the fusion-bonding layer oppose each other with the wound electrode body 30 interposed therebetween. Thereafter, outer edges of the fusion-bonding layer are fusion-bonded to each other. The fusion-bonding layer is a film that includes, for example, a polymer compound such as polypropylene. The metal layer is, for example, a metal foil that includes a metal material such as aluminum. The surface protective layer is a film that includes, for example, a polymer compound such as nylon. The outer package member 40 may include, for example, two laminated films that are adhered to each other by means of a material such as an adhesive.
[0140] A sealing film 41, for example, is interposed between the outer package member 40 and the positive electrode lead 31. The sealing film 41 is adapted to Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 prevent entry of outside air. The sealing film 41 includes a material having adherence to the positive electrode lead 31. Examples of such a material include a polyolefin resin such as polypropylene.
[0141] A sealing film 42, for example, is interposed between the outer package member 40 and the negative electrode lead 32. The sealing film 42 has a function similar to that of the sealing film 41. A material included in the sealing film 42 is similar to the material included in the sealing film 41 except that the material included in the sealing film 42 has adherence to the negative electrode lead 32, not to the positive electrode lead 31.
[Positive Electrode, Negative Electrode, and Separator]
[0142] The positive electrode 33 includes, for example, a positive electrode current collector 33A and a positive electrode active material layer 33B. The negative electrode 34 includes, for example, a negative electrode current collector 34A and a negative electrode active material layer 34B. The positive electrode current collector 33A, the positive electrode active material layer 33B, the negative electrode current collector 34A, and the negative electrode active material layer 34B respectively have configurations similar to those of the positive electrode current collector 21A, the positive electrode active material layer 21B, the negative electrode current collector 22A, and the negative electrode active material layer 22B, for example. The separator 35 has a configuration similar to that of the separator 23, for example.
[Electrolyte Layer]
[0143] The electrolyte layer 36 includes an electrolytic solution and a polymer compound. The electrolyte layer 36 described here is a so-called gel electrolyte in which the polymer compound holds the electrolytic solution. A reason for this is that high ionic conductivity is obtainable and leakage of the electrolytic solution is prevented. The high ionic conductivity is 1 mS/cm or higher at room Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 temperature, for example. The electrolyte layer 36 may further include other materials including, without limitation, various additives.
[0144] A
configuration of the electrolytic solution is as described above. That is, the electrolytic solution includes a solvent, an electrolyte salt, and an aminoanthraquinone polymer compound. The polymer material includes, for example, a homopolymer, a copolymer, or both. Examples of the homopolymer include polyvinylidene difluoride. Examples of the copolymer include a copolymer of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropylene.
[0145] Regarding the electrolyte layer 36 which is a gel electrolyte, the concept of the solvent included in the electrolytic solution is broad and encompasses not only a liquid material but also an ion-conductive material that is able to dissociate the electrolyte salt. Accordingly, in a case of using an ion-conductive polymer compound, the polymer compound is also encompassed by the solvent.
<2-2-2. Operation>
[0146] The lithium-ion secondary battery operates as follows, for example.
Upon charging the lithium-ion secondary battery, lithium ions are extracted from the positive electrode 33, and the extracted lithium ions are inserted into the negative electrode 34 via the electrolyte layer 36. Upon discharging the lithium-ion secondary battery, lithium ions are extracted from the negative electrode 34, and the extracted lithium ions are inserted into the positive electrode 33 via the electrolyte layer 36.
<2-2-3. Manufacturing Method>
[0147] The lithium-ion secondary battery including the electrolyte layer 36 is manufactured by any of the following three types of procedures, for example.
[First Procedure]
[0148] First, the positive electrode 33 is fabricated by a procedure similar to that of the positive electrode 21. That is, the positive electrode 33 is fabricated by Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 forming the positive electrode active material layers 33B on both sides of the positive electrode current collector 33A. Further, the negative electrode 34 is fabricated by a procedure similar to that of the negative electrode 22. That is, the negative electrode 34 is fabricated by forming the negative electrode active material layers 34B on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 34A.
[0149] Thereafter, the electrolytic solution is prepared, following which the prepared electrolytic solution, the polymer compound, and a material such as an organic solvent are mixed to thereby prepare a precursor solution. Thereafter, the precursor solution is applied on the positive electrode 33, following which the applied precursor solution is dried to thereby form the electrolyte layer 36.
The precursor solution is also applied on the negative electrode 34, following which the applied precursor solution is dried to thereby form the electrolyte layer 36.
Thereafter, the positive electrode lead 31 is coupled to the positive electrode current collector 33A by a method such as a welding method, and the negative electrode lead 32 is coupled to the negative electrode current collector 34A by a method such as a welding method. Thereafter, the positive electrode 33 and the negative electrode 34 are stacked on each other with the separator 35 and the electrolyte layer 36 interposed therebetween, following which the positive electrode 33, the negative electrode 34, the separator 35, and the electrolyte layer 36 are wound to thereby form the wound electrode body 30. Thereafter, the protective tape 37 is attached to a surface of the wound electrode body 30.
[0150] Lastly, the outer package member 40 is folded in such a manner as to sandwich the wound electrode body 30, following which the outer edges of the outer package member 40 are bonded to each other by a method such as a thermal fusion bonding method. In this case, the sealing film 41 is disposed between the outer package member 40 and the positive electrode lead 31, and the sealing film 42 is disposed between the outer package member 40 and the negative electrode lead 32.

Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 Thus, the wound electrode body 30 is sealed in the outer package member 40. As a result, the lithium-ion secondary battery is completed.
[Second Procedure]
[0151] First, the positive electrode 33 and the negative electrode 34 are fabricated. Thereafter, the positive electrode lead 31 is coupled to the positive electrode 33, and the negative electrode lead 32 is coupled to the negative electrode 34. Thereafter, the positive electrode 33 and the negative electrode 34 are stacked on each other with the separator 35 interposed therebetween, following which the positive electrode 33, the negative electrode 34, and the separator 35 are wound to thereby form a wound body. Thereafter, the protective tape 37 is attached to a surface of the wound body. Thereafter, the outer package member 40 is folded in such a manner as to sandwich the wound body, following which the outer edges excluding one side of the outer package member 40 are bonded to each other by a method such as a thermal fusion bonding method. Thus, the wound body is contained in the pouch-shaped outer package member 40.
[0152]
Thereafter, the electrolytic solution, the monomers, and a polymerization initiator are mixed, following which the mixture is stirred to thereby prepare a composition for electrolyte. The monomers are raw materials of the polymer compound. Another material such as a polymerization inhibitor is mixed on an as-needed basis in addition to the electrolytic solution, the monomers, and the polymerization initiator. Thereafter, the composition for electrolyte is injected into the pouch-shaped outer package member 40, following which the outer package member 40 is sealed by a method such as a thermal fusion bonding method.
Lastly, the monomers are thermally polymerized to thereby form the polymer compound.
This allows the electrolytic solution to be held by the polymer compound, thereby forming the electrolyte layer 36. Thus, the wound electrode body 30 is sealed in the outer package member 40. As a result, the lithium-ion secondary battery is Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 completed.
[Third Procedure]
[0153] First, a wound body is fabricated and the wound body is contained in the pouch-shaped outer package member 40 thereafter by a procedure similar to the second procedure, except for using the separator 35 that includes polymer compound layers provided on both sides of a base layer.
Thereafter, the electrolytic solution is injected into the outer package member 40, following which an opening of the outer package member 40 is sealed by a method such as a thermal fusion bonding method. Lastly, the outer package member 40 is heated with a weight being applied to the outer package member 40 to thereby cause the separator 35 to be closely attached to each of the positive electrode 33 and the negative electrode 34 with the polymer compound layer interposed therebetween. The polymer compound layer is thereby impregnated with the electrolytic solution to be gelated, forming the electrolyte layer 36. Thus, the wound electrode body 30 is sealed in the outer package member 40. As a result, the lithium-ion secondary battery is completed.
[0154] The third procedure helps to reduce swelling of the lithium-ion secondary battery, in contrast to the first procedure. The third procedure also helps to prevent the solvent and the monomers, which are the raw materials of the polymer compound, from remaining in the electrolyte layer 36, in contrast to the second procedure. Accordingly, the electrolyte layer 36 is sufficiently closely attached to each of the positive electrode 33, the negative electrode 34, and the separator 35.
<2-2-4. Action and Effects>
[0155] According to the laminated lithium-ion secondary battery, the electrolytic solution included in the electrolyte layer 36 has a configuration similar to that of the electrolytic solution according to the embodiment of the technology described above, i.e., the electrolytic solution includes the aminoanthraquinone Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 polymer compound. This reduces the decomposition reaction of the electrolytic solution for the reason described above. Accordingly, it is possible to achieve superior battery characteristics. Other action and effects related to the laminated lithium-ion secondary battery are similar to those related to the cylindrical lithium-ion secondary battery.
<3. Modifications>
[0156] The laminated lithium-ion secondary battery may include the electrolytic solution instead of the electrolyte layer 36. In this case, the wound electrode body 30 is impregnated with the electrolytic solution; thus, each of the positive electrode 33, the negative electrode 34, and the separator 35 is impregnated with the electrolytic solution. Further, the wound body is contained in the pouch-shaped outer package member 40, following which the electrolytic solution is injected into the pouch-shaped outer package member 40 to thereby impregnate the wound body with the electrolytic solution. As a result, the wound electrode body 30 is formed. Similar effects are also obtainable in this case.
<4. Applications of Lithium-ion Secondary Battery>
[0157] Examples of applications of the lithium-ion secondary battery are as described below. Note that applications of the electrolytic solution are similar to those of the lithium-ion secondary battery. Accordingly, the applications of the electrolytic solution are described below together with the applications of the lithium-ion secondary battery.

Examples
[0160] A description is given of Examples of the technology.
[0161] The laminated lithium-ion secondary batteries illustrated in FIGs. 3 and 4 were fabricated and their respective battery characteristics were evaluated as Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 described below.
[Fabrication of Lithium-ion Secondary Battery]
[0162] In a case of fabricating the positive electrode 33, first, 90.5 parts by mass of the positive electrode active material (LiMno.75Feo.25PO4 serving as a lithium manganese iron phosphate compound), 5.0 parts by mass of the positive electrode binder (polyvinylidene difluoride), and 4.5 parts by mass of the positive electrode conductor (graphite) were mixed with each other to thereby obtain a positive electrode mixture. Thereafter, the positive electrode mixture was put into an organic solvent (N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone), following which the organic solvent was stirred to thereby prepare a paste positive electrode mixture slurry.
Thereafter, the positive electrode mixture slurry was applied on both sides of the positive electrode current collector 33A (a band-shaped aluminum foil having a thickness of 12 prn) by means of a coating apparatus, following which the applied positive electrode mixture slurry was dried to thereby form the positive electrode active material layers 33B. Lastly, the positive electrode active material layers 33B
were compression-molded by means of a roll pressing machine.
[0163] In a case of fabricating the negative electrode 34, first, 90.5 parts by mass of the negative electrode active material (Li4Ti5012 serving as a lithium-titanium composite oxide), 5.0 parts by mass of the negative electrode binder (polyvinylidene difluoride), and 4.5 parts by mass of the negative electrode conductor (graphite) were mixed with each other to thereby obtain a negative electrode mixture. Thereafter, the negative electrode mixture was put into an organic solvent (N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone), following which the organic solvent was stirred to thereby prepare a paste negative electrode mixture slurry.
Thereafter, the negative electrode mixture slurry was applied on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 34A (a band-shaped copper foil having a thickness of 15 pm) by means of a coating apparatus, following which the applied negative Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 electrode mixture slurry was dried to thereby form the negative electrode active material layers 34B. Lastly, the negative electrode active material layers 34B
were compression-molded by means of a roll pressing machine.
[0164] In the case of fabricating each of the positive electrode 33 and the negative electrode 34, an amount of the negative electrode active material was adjusted with respect to an amount of the positive electrode active material in such a manner that a charge capacity of the negative electrode 34 was greater than a discharge capacity of the positive electrode 33.
[0165] In a case of preparing the electrolytic solution, the electrolyte salt (lithium hexafluorophosphate) was added to a solvent (propylene carbonate and dimethyl carbonate), following which the solvent was stirred. In this case, a mixture ratio (a volume ratio) between propylene carbonate and dimethyl carbonate in the solvent was set to 40:60, and the content of the electrolyte salt with respect to the solvent was set to 1 mo1/1 (= 1 mol/dm3).
Thereafter, the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound (the compound (AAQ) represented by Formula (4), where each of R25 and R26 is a methyl group, and a weight average molecular weight is 50000) was added to the solvent, following which the solvent was stirred. In this case, the content of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound in the electrolytic solution was set to 1 wt%.
[0166] For comparison, electrolytic solutions were prepared in accordance with a similar procedure, except that the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound was not used and that other compounds (vinylene carbonate (VC) serving as an unsaturated cyclic carbonate ester and maleic anhydride (MAH) serving as an acid anhydride) were used instead of the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound.
[0167] In a case of assembling the lithium-ion secondary battery, first, the positive electrode lead 31 including aluminum was welded to the positive electrode current collector 33A, and the negative electrode lead 32 including copper was Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 welded to the negative electrode current collector 34A. Thereafter, the positive electrode 33 and the negative electrode 34 were stacked on each other with the separator 35 (a fine-porous polyethylene film haying a thickness of 15 pm) interposed therebetween to thereby obtain a stacked body. Thereafter, the stacked body was wound, following which the protective tape 37 was attached to the stacked body to thereby obtain a wound body.
[0168]
Thereafter, the outer package member 40 was folded in such a manner as to sandwich the wound body, following which the outer edges of two sides of the outer package member 40 were thermal fusion bonded to each other. As the outer package member 40, an aluminum laminated film was used in which a surface protective layer (a nylon film having a thickness of 25 pm), a metal layer (an aluminum foil having a thickness of 40 pm), and a fusion-bonding layer (a polypropylene film having a thickness of 30 pm) were stacked in this order. In this case, the sealing film 41 (a polypropylene film) was interposed between the outer package member 40 and the positive electrode lead 31, and the sealing film 42 (a polypropylene film) was interposed between the outer package member 40 and the negative electrode lead 32.
[0169] Lastly, the electrolytic solution was injected into the outer package member 40 to thereby impregnate the wound body with the electrolytic solution, and thereafter, the outer edges of one of the remaining sides of the outer package member 40 were thermal fusion bonded to each other in a reduced-pressure environment. Thus, the wound electrode body 30 was formed, being sealed in the outer package member 40. As a result, the laminated lithium-ion secondary battery was completed.
[Evaluation of Battery Characteristic]
[0170] Evaluation of a battery characteristic of the lithium-ion secondary batteries revealed the results described in Table 1. A cyclability characteristic was Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 evaluated here as the battery characteristic.
[0171] In a case of examining the cyclability characteristic, first, the lithium-ion secondary battery was charged and discharged for one cycle in an ambient temperature environment (at a temperature of 23 C) in order to stabilize a state of the lithium-ion secondary battery.
[0172] Thereafter, the lithium-ion secondary battery was repeatedly charged and discharged for 518 cycles in total in a high temperature environment (at a temperature of 45 C) in a manner that a series of cycle conditions from (A) to (K) below was followed in this order.
(A) Three cycles of charging and discharging (B) 100 cycles of charging and discharging (C) Three cycles of charging and discharging (D) 100 cycles of charging and discharging (E) Three cycles of charging and discharging (F) 100 cycles of charging and discharging (G) Three cycles of charging and discharging (H) 100 cycles of charging and discharging (I) Three cycles of charging and discharging (J) 100 cycles of charging and discharging (K) Three cycles of charging and discharging
[0173] Charging and discharging conditions for the three cycles of each of (A), (C), (E), (G), (I), and (K) were as follows. Upon the charging and discharging at the initial cycle, the lithium-ion secondary battery was charged with a constant current of 0.05 C until a voltage reached 3.0 V, and was thereafter charged with a constant voltage of 3.0 V until a current reached 0.05 C and discharged with a constant current of 0.05 C until the voltage reached 0.5 V. Charging and discharging conditions at the second cycle were similar to the charging and Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 discharging conditions at the initial cycle except that the current at the time of charging and the current at the time of discharging were each changed to 0.1 C.
Charging and discharging conditions at the third cycle were similar to the charging and discharging conditions at the initial cycle except that the current at the time of charging and the current at the time of discharging were each changed to 0.2 C.
[0174] Upon charging and discharging for the 100 cycles of each of (B), (D), (F), (H), and (J), the lithium-ion secondary battery was charged with a constant current of 1 C until the voltage reached 3.0 V, and was thereafter charged with a constant voltage of 3.0 V until the current reached 0.05 C and discharged with a constant current of 1 C until the voltage reached 0.5 V.
[0175] Note that 0.05 C, 0.1 C, 0.2 C, and 1 C are values of currents that cause battery capacities (theoretical capacities) to be completely discharged in 20 hours, hours, 5 hours, and 1 hour, respectively.
[0176] Lastly, a dynamic capacity retention rate (%) and a static capacity retention rate (%) were calculated by the following procedure.
[0177] To calculate the dynamic capacity retention rate, a discharge capacity of a case where the current at the time of charging (the current at the time of discharging) was set to 0.2 C was measured in (A), and a discharge capacity of a case where the current at the time of charging (the current at the time of discharging) was set to 0.2 C was measured in (K), following which the following was calculated:
dynamic capacity retention rate (%) = (discharge capacity measured in (K) /
discharge capacity measured in (A)) x 100.
[0178] To calculate the static capacity retention rate, a discharge capacity of a case where the current at the time of charging (the current at the time of discharging) was set to 0.05 C was measured in (A), and a discharge capacity of a case where the current at the time of charging (the current at the time of discharging) was set to 0.05 C was measured in (K), following which the following was calculated:
static Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26 capacity retention rate (%) = (discharge capacity measured in (K) / discharge capacity measured in (A)) x 100.

Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26

[0180] As described in Table 1, the dynamic capacity retention rate and the static capacity retention rate each varied greatly depending on the configuration of the electrolytic solution.
[0181]
Specifically, in the case where the other compound was used as the additive included in the electrolytic solution (Experiment examples 3 and 4), the dynamic capacity retention rate slightly increased, but the static capacity retention rate decreased, as compared with the case where the electrolytic solution included no additive (Experiment example 2).
[0182] In contrast, in the case where the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound was used as the additive included in the electrolytic solution (Experiment example 1), the dynamic capacity retention rate greatly increased and the static capacity retention rate also increased, as compared with the case where the electrolytic solution included no additive (Experiment example 2).
[Conclusion]

Date Recue/Date Received 2021-03-26
[0183] Based upon the above results, the inclusion of the solvent, the electrolyte salt, and the aminoanthraquinone polymer compound in the electrolytic solution improved the cyclability characteristic. Accordingly, a superior battery characteristic of the lithium-ion secondary battery was obtained.
[0184] Although the technology has been described above with reference to some embodiments and Examples, embodiments of the technology are not limited to those described with reference to the embodiments and the Examples above and are modifiable in a variety of ways.
[0185]
Specifically, although the description has been given of the cylindrical lithium-ion secondary battery and the laminated lithium-ion secondary battery, this is non-limiting. For example, the lithium-ion secondary battery may be of any other type such as a prismatic type or a coin type.
[0186] Moreover, although the description has been given of a case of the battery device having a wound structure, this is non-limiting. For example, the battery device may have any other structure such as a stacked structure.
[0187] Note that the effects described herein are mere examples, and effects of the technology are therefore not limited to those described herein.
Accordingly, the technology may achieve any other effect.
[0188] It should be understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations, and alterations may occur depending on design requirements and other factors insofar as they are within the scope of the appended claims or the equivalents thereof.
