Description

本発明は、非水電解質二次電池及びその製造方法に関するものであり、特にはリチウムイオン二次電池及びその製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly to a lithium ion secondary battery and a method for manufacturing the same.

近年、ノートパソコン、携帯電話、デジタルカメラのポータブル電源として、高エネルギー密度を有するリチウムイオン二次電池の使用が増大している。また、環境にやさしい自動車として実用化が期待される電気自動車用の電源としても、リチウムイオン二次電池が検討されている。   In recent years, the use of lithium ion secondary batteries having a high energy density as portable power sources for notebook computers, mobile phones, and digital cameras is increasing. Also, lithium ion secondary batteries are being studied as a power source for electric vehicles that are expected to be put into practical use as environmentally friendly vehicles.

これまでのリチウムイオン二次電池は、負極に炭素材料が活物質として使用されていたが、近年の容量向上の要求から、高い充放電容量を期待することができる珪素などのリチウムと合金化する金属及びそれらの酸化物を負極活物質として用いることが考えられている。しかしながら、このような合金化する金属を活物質として用いると、高容量を期待することはできるが、初回の充電に正極材料中のリチウムが負極材料中に導入され、リチウムが全て放電によって取り出せずに一定量負極中に残ってしまう不可逆容量のリチウムが生じてしまう。その結果、電池の放電容量が低下し、電池能力が低下するという課題を有している。この課題を解決する方策がこれまで多く提案され、実施され、特許文献でも多く紹介されている。   Conventional lithium-ion secondary batteries have used a carbon material as an active material for the negative electrode. However, due to recent demands for capacity enhancement, they are alloyed with lithium such as silicon that can be expected to have high charge / discharge capacity. It is considered to use metals and their oxides as negative electrode active materials. However, when such an alloying metal is used as an active material, high capacity can be expected, but lithium in the positive electrode material is introduced into the negative electrode material for the first charge, and all lithium cannot be taken out by discharge. Thus, a certain amount of irreversible lithium remains in the negative electrode. As a result, there is a problem that the discharge capacity of the battery is reduced and the battery capacity is reduced. Many measures to solve this problem have been proposed and implemented so far, and many are introduced in patent literature.

即ち、特許文献1(特開平5−226003号公報)では、不可逆容量分の有機リチウム化合物により補充する方法、特許文献2(特開平10−223259号公報)では、金属リチウムを電池ケース上部に配置する方法、特許文献3(特許第3403858号公報)では、正極の断面方向にリチウムを配置させることにより、不可逆容量分のリチウムを補う方法が提案されている。また、特許文献4(特開2003−234125号公報)では、金属リチウム箔を電池ケースに貼り付け、非水電解液の注入後負極の電位を2.5V<E<3.2Vの範囲で初期の充電を行うことにより、不純物金属イオンの析出を押さえ、微少短絡を防止して、サイクル特性を向上させる方法が提案されている。これらは、電池能力の低下に対して有益な方法であるが、工程が複雑であったり、リチウムが反応しない環境での作業が複雑であるなど取扱場所が制限され、工業的には実現が難しかった。   That is, in Patent Document 1 (JP-A-5-226003), a method of replenishing with an irreversible capacity of an organic lithium compound, and in Patent Document 2 (JP-A-10-223259), metallic lithium is disposed on the upper part of the battery case. Japanese Patent No. 3403858 proposes a method of compensating for irreversible capacity lithium by arranging lithium in the cross-sectional direction of the positive electrode. Moreover, in patent document 4 (Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 2003-234125), a metal lithium foil is affixed on a battery case, and after injection | pouring of nonaqueous electrolyte, the electric potential of a negative electrode is initial in the range of 2.5V <E <3.2V. Thus, there has been proposed a method for improving the cycle characteristics by suppressing the deposition of impurity metal ions and preventing a minute short circuit by performing the above charging. These are useful methods for reducing the battery capacity, but they are difficult to implement industrially due to limited handling locations such as complicated processes and complicated work in an environment where lithium does not react. It was.

本発明は、上記事情に鑑みなされたもので、負極に残ってしまう不可逆容量のリチウムを簡便に補うことができて、電池能力が向上し、また製造時の取り扱い性に優れた非水電解質二次電池及びその製造方法を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and can easily compensate for irreversible capacity lithium remaining in the negative electrode, improve battery performance, and is excellent in handleability during production. An object of the present invention is to provide a secondary battery and a manufacturing method thereof.

本発明者は、上記目的を達成するため鋭意検討した結果、簡便な方法でかつ露点マイナス40℃程度で容易に取り扱える方法を見出し、本発明をなすに至った。即ち、金属リチウムを粉末状に加工した金属リチウム粉末を用いて作製したリチウム含有膜を負極に形成して用いることで、負極中に残ってしまう不可逆容量のリチウムを補うことが可能となり、電池能力が向上する方法を見出した。   As a result of intensive studies to achieve the above object, the present inventor has found a simple method and a method that can be easily handled at a dew point of about minus 40 ° C., and has reached the present invention. In other words, by using a lithium-containing film prepared using a metal lithium powder obtained by processing metal lithium in a powder form on the negative electrode, it becomes possible to compensate for irreversible lithium remaining in the negative electrode, and battery capacity Found a way to improve.

本発明においては、このような非水電解質二次電池において、上記した負極の少なくとも正極側にリチウムを含んだ膜を塗布又は貼り合わせにより形成したものである。   In the present invention, in such a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, a film containing lithium is formed on at least the positive electrode side of the negative electrode by coating or bonding.

即ち、上述した珪素を含む負極活物質は、従来より用いられていた黒鉛と比べ高い充放電容量を持つが、初回の充電で負極材料中に導入されたリチウムが、全て放電によって取り出せずに一定量負極中に残ってしまう不可逆容量のリチウムがあり、特に珪素の低級酸化物である酸化珪素は、優れたサイクル特性を示すが、不可逆容量のリチウムが大きく、実用化に問題があったものであるが、上記リチウムを含んだ膜の形成により、かかる問題が解決されるものである。   In other words, the negative electrode active material containing silicon described above has a higher charge / discharge capacity than graphite conventionally used, but the lithium introduced into the negative electrode material by the first charge is not taken out by discharge and is constant. There is an irreversible capacity lithium that remains in the negative electrode, especially silicon oxide, which is a lower oxide of silicon, which shows excellent cycle characteristics, but the irreversible capacity lithium is large and has a problem in practical use. However, this problem can be solved by forming the lithium-containing film.

この場合、リチウムを含んだ膜は、金属リチウム粉末もしくは表面コートされた金属リチウム粉末と、バインダと、導電材とを含む混合物の膜であることが好ましい。   In this case, the film containing lithium is preferably a film of a mixture containing metal lithium powder or surface-coated metal lithium powder, a binder, and a conductive material.

本発明に係わる金属リチウム粉末は、安定化処理させたリチウム粉末を使用するのが好ましい。リチウム粉末を安定化処理することで、露点マイナス40℃程度のドライルームにおいてもリチウム粉末の変質が進行しなくなる。ここでリチウム粉末の安定化処理とは、リチウム粉末の表面に環境安定の良い物質、例えば、NBR(ニトリルブタジエンゴム)、SBR(スチレンブタジエンゴム)等の有機ゴム、EVA(エチレンビニルアルコール共重合樹脂)等の有機樹脂やLi2CO3などの金属炭酸塩等の無機化合物等でコーティングされたもので、市販品としてFMC社製のSLMPやアルドリッチ社製のリチウムパウダー等がある。 As the metallic lithium powder according to the present invention, it is preferable to use a stabilized lithium powder. By stabilizing the lithium powder, the modification of the lithium powder does not proceed even in a dry room having a dew point of about −40 ° C. Here, the stabilization of the lithium powder is a material having good environmental stability on the surface of the lithium powder, for example, organic rubber such as NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber) and SBR (styrene butadiene rubber), EVA (ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer resin). ) And other inorganic compounds such as metal carbonates such as Li 2 CO 3 , and commercially available products include SLMP manufactured by FMC and lithium powder manufactured by Aldrich.

また、バインダとしては、ポリフッ化ビニリデン、スチレン・ブタジエン共重合体、ポリテトラフルオロエチレン樹脂、トリブタジエンゴム、エチレンビニルアルコール共重合体樹脂、ポリアミド樹脂、ポリイミド樹脂、ポリアミドイミド樹脂等が挙げられ、バインダの使用量は、上記金属リチウム100質量部に対し、0.1〜70質量部、特に0.2〜10質量部であることが好ましい。   Examples of the binder include polyvinylidene fluoride, styrene / butadiene copolymer, polytetrafluoroethylene resin, tributadiene rubber, ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer resin, polyamide resin, polyimide resin, polyamideimide resin, and the like. Is preferably 0.1 to 70 parts by mass, particularly preferably 0.2 to 10 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the lithium metal.

導電材としては、アセチレンブラック、黒鉛、炭素繊維や銅、ステンレス、ニッケルなどの金属粉末や金属繊維あるいはこれらの2種以上の合金の粉末や繊維等が挙げられ、その使用量は、上記金属リチウム100質量部に対し、0.1〜70質量部、特に0.2〜10質量部とすることが好ましい。   Examples of the conductive material include metal powders such as acetylene black, graphite, carbon fiber, copper, stainless steel, nickel, metal fibers, or powders or fibers of two or more of these alloys. It is preferable to set it as 0.1-70 mass parts with respect to 100 mass parts, especially 0.2-10 mass parts.

上記金属リチウム粉末とバインダと導電材とからなる混合物は、これに脱水した溶剤、例えばN−メチルピロリドン、トルエン、キシレン、メチルエチルケトン等を加えてスラリーとし、これを例えば露点マイナス40℃の窒素グローブボックス中で負極に塗布し、これを乾燥してリチウム塗布負極としたり、あるいは上記スラリーを膜状に製膜し、このリチウム含有膜を負極に貼り合わせ、これを乾燥して、リチウム貼り合わせ負極とすることができる。   The mixture composed of the lithium metal powder, the binder, and the conductive material is made into a slurry by adding a dehydrated solvent such as N-methylpyrrolidone, toluene, xylene, methyl ethyl ketone, and the like, for example, a nitrogen glove box having a dew point of −40 ° C. In the negative electrode and dried to form a lithium-coated negative electrode, or the slurry is formed into a film, the lithium-containing film is bonded to the negative electrode, and dried to form a lithium bonded negative electrode can do.

この場合、リチウムを含んだ膜は、負極の少なくとも正極側に形成するが、前記負極集電体シートの負極活物質が塗布された面にリチウム含有膜を塗布又は貼り合わせによって形成することが好ましい。つまり、集電体シートの一面に負極活物質層を形成し、その上にリチウム含有膜を形成すること、あるいは集電体シートの両面に負極活物質層をそれぞれ形成し、これら両負極活物質層上にそれぞれリチウム含有膜を形成することが好ましい。リチウム含有膜は、正極に対面するように配置されるが、この場合、例えば集電体シートの一面に負極活物質層、リチウム含有膜を形成する態様はコイン型電池に、集電体シートの両面にそれぞれ負極活物質層、リチウム含有膜を形成する態様はシリンダータイプの電池に有効である。   In this case, the lithium-containing film is formed on at least the positive electrode side of the negative electrode, but it is preferable to form the lithium-containing film on the surface of the negative electrode current collector sheet coated with the negative electrode active material by coating or bonding. . That is, a negative electrode active material layer is formed on one surface of the current collector sheet, and a lithium-containing film is formed thereon, or a negative electrode active material layer is formed on both surfaces of the current collector sheet. A lithium-containing film is preferably formed on each layer. The lithium-containing film is arranged so as to face the positive electrode. In this case, for example, the negative electrode active material layer and the lithium-containing film are formed on one surface of the current collector sheet, in a coin-type battery, A mode in which a negative electrode active material layer and a lithium-containing film are formed on both surfaces is effective for a cylinder type battery.

本発明の非水電解質二次電池において、上記リチウム皮膜は、集電体シート上に形成されたリチウムが初回の充電により負極活物質層の内部に拡散されるように機能する。このリチウム皮膜は、負極の不可逆容量分を補うために利用されるものであるので、その添加量は負極の不可逆容量を補うだけの量以下であることが望ましい。リチウムの最適な添加量は、負極活物質の量や材質によって変化し、添加量に応じて不可逆容量が減少するが、多すぎると負極にリチウムが析出してしまい、逆に電池の容量が減少する。従って、最適なリチウムの添加量は別途に負極の初期効率を求めてから定めることが好ましく、また、電池設計における負極の厚み(使用量)に応じて定められる。   In the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention, the lithium film functions so that lithium formed on the current collector sheet is diffused into the negative electrode active material layer by the first charge. Since this lithium film is used to supplement the irreversible capacity of the negative electrode, it is desirable that the amount of addition be less than or equal to the amount sufficient to supplement the irreversible capacity of the negative electrode. The optimum addition amount of lithium varies depending on the amount and material of the negative electrode active material, and the irreversible capacity decreases depending on the addition amount, but if it is too much, lithium is deposited on the negative electrode, and conversely the battery capacity decreases. To do. Therefore, it is preferable to determine the optimum addition amount of lithium after separately obtaining the initial efficiency of the negative electrode, and is determined according to the thickness (use amount) of the negative electrode in battery design.
