Description
この発明は、高容量であるとともに、サイクル特性に優れた非水電解質二次電池に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery having high capacity and excellent cycle characteristics.
近時、携帯電話やノート型パソコン等に用いられる電池としてより一層高容量のものが求められており、このような高容量、高エネルギー密度の観点から、リチウムイオン二次電池の正極及び負極の活物質として様々な材料が検討されている。これらの電極に用いられる一般的な活物質としては、正極活物質としてコバルト酸リチウム等の層状構造を有するリチウム遷移金属複合酸化物、負極活物質として黒鉛系炭素材料、酸化ケイ素系複合材料、シリコン、錫合金、リチウムバナジウム酸化物等が挙げられ、このような正極活物質と負極活物質との間をリチウムイオンが移動することにより充放電が行われる。 Recently, a battery having higher capacity has been demanded as a battery used in a mobile phone, a notebook computer, etc. From the viewpoint of such high capacity and high energy density, the positive electrode and the negative electrode of a lithium ion secondary battery are required. Various materials have been studied as active materials. As a general active material used for these electrodes, a lithium transition metal composite oxide having a layered structure such as lithium cobaltate as a positive electrode active material, a graphite-based carbon material, a silicon oxide-based composite material, silicon as a negative electrode active material , Tin alloy, lithium vanadium oxide, and the like, and charging and discharging are performed as lithium ions move between the positive electrode active material and the negative electrode active material.
このような系においては、正極活物質が構造上もっている効率(脱離したリチウムイオンのうち再度挿入することが可能な量)と、負極活物質が構造上もっている効率(挿入したリチウムイオンのうち再度脱離させることが可能な量)では、負極活物質の効率の方が低く、電池のサイクル特性は負極活物質から再度脱離可能なリチウムイオン量に依存している。しかし、負極活物質の効率を上げる(より多くのリチウムイオンを脱離させる)ために、負極の放電深度を最大限に使用すると、次第に負極が劣化して、サイクル特性が劣化してしまう。一方、可逆領域だけで負極を作動させると、充放電に関与するリチウムイオンの移動量が減少してしまい、やはりサイクル特性が充分ではないという問題がある。 In such a system, the positive electrode active material has a structural efficiency (the amount of lithium ions that can be reinserted), and the negative electrode active material has a structural efficiency (of inserted lithium ions). Of these, the efficiency of the negative electrode active material is lower, and the cycle characteristics of the battery depend on the amount of lithium ions that can be desorbed again from the negative electrode active material. However, when the maximum discharge depth of the negative electrode is used in order to increase the efficiency of the negative electrode active material (desorb more lithium ions), the negative electrode gradually deteriorates and the cycle characteristics deteriorate. On the other hand, when the negative electrode is operated only in the reversible region, there is a problem that the amount of movement of lithium ions involved in charge / discharge decreases, and the cycle characteristics are not sufficient.
このような問題を改善するために、負極活物質に予めリチウムイオンをドープするという方法があるが(特許文献1)、負極活物質へのドープ可能なリチウムイオン量は限定されているうえ、負極活物質への均一なドープは困難であり、更に、ドープしたリチウムイオンが再脱離した後の負極活物質の層間拡大に伴う抵抗上昇、リチウムメタルの不安定性(大気中不安定、発火、電極の柔軟性の低さ等)といった問題もある。
そこで本発明は、上記現状に鑑み、高容量であるとともに、サイクル特性に優れた非水電解質二次電池を提供することを課題とする。 In view of the above situation, an object of the present invention is to provide a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery having a high capacity and excellent cycle characteristics.
すなわち本発明に係る非水電解質二次電池は、開放電位(リチウム基準)が3V以上の第1のリチウム層状化合物と3V未満の第2のリチウム層状化合物とを含有する正極を備えており、前記第1及び第2のリチウム層状化合物の混合比は、重量比で、第2のリチウム層状化合物/第1のリチウム層状化合物が0.01〜0.3であることを特徴とする。 That is, the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to the present invention includes a positive electrode containing a first lithium layered compound having an open potential (lithium reference) of 3 V or more and a second lithium layered compound of less than 3 V, The mixing ratio of the first and second lithium layered compounds is characterized in that the second lithium layered compound / first lithium layered compound is 0.01 to 0.3 by weight.
このようなものであれば、初期充電前に予め正極に前記第1のリチウム層状化合物に加えて、開放電位の低い前記第2のリチウム層状化合物を含有させておき、充放電時に下限電位を3V(リチウム基準)以上に設定することにより、初期充電時には第1及び第2のリチウム層状化合物の両方からリチウムイオンが脱離するが、次の放電時には第1のリチウム層状化合物に対してのみリチウムイオンが再挿入され、第2のリチウム層状化合物から脱離したリチウムイオンは再挿入されず負極活物質にドープされたままとなる。そして、2回目以降の充放電サイクルでは、第1のリチウム層状化合物からのみリチウムイオンが脱離し、第1のリチウム層状化合物に対してのみリチウムイオンが再挿入される。 In such a case, before the initial charge, in addition to the first lithium layered compound, the positive electrode contains the second lithium layered compound having a low open potential in advance, and the lower limit potential is set to 3 V during charging and discharging. (Lithium reference) By setting the above, lithium ions are desorbed from both the first and second lithium layered compounds at the initial charge, but only at the first lithium layered compound at the next discharge Is reinserted, and lithium ions desorbed from the second lithium layered compound are not reinserted and remain doped in the negative electrode active material. In the second and subsequent charge / discharge cycles, lithium ions are desorbed only from the first lithium layered compound, and lithium ions are reinserted only into the first lithium layered compound.
このように、初期充電時に第2のリチウム層状化合物から脱離したリチウムイオンが負極活物質へドープされることにより、負極の放電深度を浅くしても、移動可能なリチウムイオン量が増加し、可逆領域内で負極を作動させることが可能になるので、負極の劣化を抑制して電池のサイクル特性を改善することが可能となる。 As described above, the lithium ion desorbed from the second lithium layered compound during the initial charging is doped into the negative electrode active material, so that the amount of movable lithium ions increases even when the discharge depth of the negative electrode is shallow, Since the negative electrode can be operated in the reversible region, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the negative electrode and improve the cycle characteristics of the battery.
更に、本発明によれば、負極活物質へのリチウムイオンの均一なドープが可能となるとともに、ドープしたリチウムイオンが再脱離した後の負極活物質の層間拡大に伴う抵抗上昇や、リチウムメタルの不安定性等の問題も生じない。 Furthermore, according to the present invention, the negative electrode active material can be uniformly doped with lithium ions, and the resistance increase associated with the interlayer expansion of the negative electrode active material after the doped lithium ions are re-desorbed, and lithium metal Instability and other problems do not occur.
なお、本発明に係る非水電解質二次電池は上限電圧を4.3V以下(リチウム基準)として充放電を行うことが好ましい。上限電位を4.3V超とすると、第2のリチウム層状化合物が劣化して層状構造が崩れ、第2のリチウム層状化合物が溶解したり電解液と反応して分解したりして、非水電解質二次電池のサイクル特性の低下を招く。 The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to the present invention is preferably charged and discharged with an upper limit voltage of 4.3 V or lower (lithium reference). When the upper limit potential exceeds 4.3 V, the second lithium layered compound deteriorates and the layered structure collapses, and the second lithium layered compound dissolves or reacts with the electrolytic solution and decomposes, resulting in a nonaqueous electrolyte. This leads to deterioration of the cycle characteristics of the secondary battery.
また、本発明に係る非水電解質二次電池が3V未満の過放電状態になった場合は、第2のリチウム層状化合物に対しリチウムイオンが再挿入されることにより、過放電が防止されるという効果がある。 In addition, when the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to the present invention is in an overdischarge state of less than 3 V, lithium ions are reinserted into the second lithium layered compound, thereby preventing overdischarge. effective.
前記第2のリチウム層状化合物は、Mo、Ti、Cr、V、及び、Cuからなる群より選ばれる少なくとも1種の金属元素を含有するリチウム金属化合物であることが好ましい。 The second lithium layered compound is preferably a lithium metal compound containing at least one metal element selected from the group consisting of Mo, Ti, Cr, V, and Cu.

図3では、サイクルを重ねていくにつれ比較例1は劣化していくが、実施例1は100サイクルで95%以上の容量維持率を保つことが示された。 FIG. 3 shows that Comparative Example 1 deteriorates as the cycle is repeated, but Example 1 shows that the capacity retention rate of 95% or more is maintained in 100 cycles.
