Description

  The present invention relates to an electrolytic solution and a lithium ion secondary battery.

Conventionally, low molecular weight or high molecular weight organic gelling agents have been used in various industrial fields to solidify organic liquids. As low molecular weight organic gelling agents, for example, low molecular weight compound groups having hydrogen-bonding functional groups such as amino groups, amide groups, and urea groups in the molecule are known, such as cosmetics, cosmetics, and sludge treatments. It is suitably used in the field.
On the other hand, examples of the high molecular weight organic gelling agent include a group of polymer compounds having a three-dimensional network structure in the molecule. For example, polyether compounds are well known.
There are many examples of studies on high molecular weight organic gelling agents, which are being developed in various fields.

  Development of low molecular weight organic gelling agents is relatively slow compared to high molecular weight ones, and there are few types of known gelling agents. For example, dialkylurea derivatives (see, for example, Patent Document 1), Fluoroalkyl derivatives (see, for example, Patent Documents 2 to 3 and Non-Patent Document 1) are known.

At present, electrochemical devices using organic liquids are used in various applications, and typical examples thereof include lithium ion secondary batteries that are mainly used as rechargeable batteries for portable devices.
Further, in recent years, there has been a demand for energy saving due to increasing interest in the environment, and there are increasing expectations for various electrochemical devices using organic liquids that can contribute to this demand.
However, when applying an organic liquid electrolyte to an electrochemical device, further improvement of its safety is a major issue. For example, lithium ion secondary batteries are expected to be widely used in the near future for automotive applications, and higher battery safety (non-leakage, flame retardancy, dendride suppression, etc.) is required. Therefore, for example, development of a polymer (gel) battery, a battery using an ionic liquid or a fluoro solvent as an electrolytic solution, and the like has been advanced. However, at present, safety and battery characteristics (charge / discharge characteristics, low temperature operation, high temperature durability, etc.) are in a trade-off relationship. A polymer (gel) battery is expected from the viewpoint of battery size reduction and increased freedom of form in addition to battery safety, but existing dry polymer batteries cannot be said to have high battery characteristics. In addition, although the gel polymer battery has an effect of improving battery characteristics (particularly rate characteristics) as compared with the dry polymer battery, it does not reach the battery using the existing non-aqueous liquid electrolyte.

At present, there are few research examples of electrolytes and secondary batteries using low molecular weight organic gelling agents, which are not sufficient. For example, Patent Document 2 proposes an electrolytic solution using a low molecular weight organic gelling agent, but there is still room for improvement in battery performance even when this electrolytic solution is used.
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and provides an electrolytic solution for an electrochemical device and a lithium ion secondary battery that is excellent in battery characteristics (such as charge / discharge characteristics) and at the same time realizes high safety. For the purpose.

  In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present inventors examined the possibility of applying low molecular weight organic gelling agents including those described in the above-mentioned patent documents to an electrolytic solution and a lithium ion secondary battery. As a result, it was found that a specific low molecular weight organic gelling agent having a plurality of perfluoroalkyl groups is useful as an electrolytic solution and can form a gel electrolyte with high performance. Furthermore, when producing a secondary battery using this electrolyte solution, it discovered that it was compatible with high discharge capacity and high safety, and came to complete this invention.
