【発明の詳細な説明】 産業上の利用分野 本発明は、リチウム電池に関するものである。[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial applications The present invention relates to lithium batteries.
従来の技術
リチウム電池は、通常負極板に金属リチウム電極を用い
ている。金属リチウムは、きわめて卑な電位を有するの
で電解液や電解質を容易に還元分解する。リチウム−次
電池では、リチウム極の表面に安定な不動態皮膜を形成

放電にともない不動態皮膜が生成分解を繰り返すので電
解tαの分解が常におこる。このような電解液の分解反
応がリチウム二次電池のサイクル寿命性能を低下させる
重大な原因になっている。Prior art lithium batteries typically use a metallic lithium electrode for the negative plate. Metallic lithium has an extremely base potential and therefore easily reductively decomposes electrolytes and electrolytes. In rechargeable lithium batteries, a stable passive film is formed on the surface of the lithium electrode to stop the decomposition reaction of the electrolyte, but in secondary batteries, the passive film repeatedly forms and decomposes as it charges and discharges, so the electrolytic tα decomposition always occurs. Such a decomposition reaction of the electrolyte is a major cause of deterioration of the cycle life performance of a lithium secondary battery.
現在のところ金属リチウムに対して完全に安定な電解液
または電解質は見いだされていない。このためリチウム
電池の負極板に金属リチウムの代わりにリチウムインサ
ージョン電極を用いることが検討されている。リチウム
インサージョン電極は、通常金属リチウムよりも責な電
位を有するので、電池の電圧が低下してエネルギー密度
も低下する。しかし、前記の電解液の分解が抑制される
ので、−次電池では高温下での貯蔵性能など電池特性が
安定し、また二次電池では開発にともなう技術的課題が
少なくなる。At present, no electrolyte or electrolyte has been found that is completely stable for metallic lithium. For this reason, consideration is being given to using a lithium insertion electrode instead of metallic lithium for the negative electrode plate of a lithium battery. Lithium insertion electrodes typically have a higher potential than metallic lithium, which lowers the voltage of the battery and lowers its energy density. However, since the decomposition of the electrolytic solution is suppressed, battery characteristics such as storage performance at high temperatures are stabilized in secondary batteries, and technical problems associated with development of secondary batteries are reduced.
アルミニウムは、リチウムイオンの優れた導伝体として
よく知られている。このためアルミニウムをリチウムイ
ンサージョン電極として負極板に用いたリチウム電池が
すでに多く検討されている。Aluminum is well known as an excellent conductor of lithium ions. For this reason, many lithium batteries using aluminum as a lithium insertion electrode for the negative electrode plate have already been studied.
しかし、アルミニウム電極は、リチウムの吸蔵放出を繰
り返すと電極が微粉化して崩壊する。このため電池容量
が低下したり、ショートが起きたりする問題があった。However, when aluminum electrodes repeatedly absorb and release lithium, they become pulverized and disintegrate. This has led to problems such as a decrease in battery capacity and short circuits.
これは、リチウムイオンのインサージョンにともないア
ルミニウムの金属結晶の格子定数が著しく増大すること
に起因している。This is due to the fact that the lattice constant of the aluminum metal crystal increases significantly with the insertion of lithium ions.
このようなアルミニウム電極の崩壊を抑制するために、
従来は、アルミニウムにマンガンを添加する方法が用い
られてきた。In order to suppress the collapse of such aluminum electrodes,
Conventionally, a method of adding manganese to aluminum has been used.
しかし、発明者は、マンガン添加の効果について詳しく
検討した結果、0.1mA/cm2以下の低電流密度の
充放電サイクル試験では、負極板の崩壊を抑制する優れ
た効果があるが、電流密度が増大するとその効果が著し
く低下することを見いだした。However, as a result of detailed study on the effect of manganese addition, the inventor found that in a charge/discharge cycle test at a low current density of 0.1 mA/cm2 or less, it has an excellent effect of suppressing the collapse of the negative electrode plate, but when the current density It was found that the effect decreases significantly as the amount increases.
そして、このような高電流密度での電極崩壊がアルミニ
ウム電極の表面近傍におけるリチウム濃度の増大に起因
することを見いだした。They also found that electrode collapse at such high current densities is due to an increase in lithium concentration near the surface of the aluminum electrode.
発明が解決しようとする課題
上記のように従来のアルミニウム電極は、充放電サイク
ルの進行にともなって、特にl mA/ cm2以上の
大電流密度の場合に負極板が崩壊するという課題があっ
た。Problems to be Solved by the Invention As mentioned above, the conventional aluminum electrode has a problem in that the negative electrode plate collapses as the charge/discharge cycle progresses, especially at a large current density of 1 mA/cm2 or more.
課題を解決すための手段
本発明は、アルミニウムにリチウム、ボロン、シリコン
、ビスマス、ガリウムもしくはゲルマニウムを単独でま
たは複合して添加した合金を用いた負極板を備えたこと
を特徴とするリチウム電池を用いて前記課題を解決する
ものである。また、前記合金にマンガンを添加した合金
を用いた負極板を備えたことを特徴とするリチウム電池
を用いて前記課題の解決をさらに容易にするものである
。Means for Solving the Problems The present invention provides a lithium battery characterized by having a negative electrode plate using an alloy in which lithium, boron, silicon, bismuth, gallium, or germanium is added alone or in combination to aluminum. The above-mentioned problem is solved by using the following method. Further, the above-mentioned problem can be more easily solved by using a lithium battery characterized by having a negative electrode plate using an alloy in which manganese is added to the above-mentioned alloy.
作用
アルミニウム電極は、リチウムイオンを吸蔵する場合、
吸蔵の初回に著しく格子定数が増加する。When the working aluminum electrode occludes lithium ions,
The lattice constant increases significantly during the first occlusion.
したがって、リチウムをアルミニウムにあらかじめ少量
添加して結晶格子を膨張させておくと、アルミニウム電
極の電池内での急激な格子膨張を抑ルノすることができ
る。この結果、電極の崩壊が抑制される。Therefore, if a small amount of lithium is added to aluminum in advance to expand the crystal lattice, rapid lattice expansion of the aluminum electrode within the battery can be suppressed. As a result, collapse of the electrode is suppressed.
ボロンは金属間化合物に靭性な付与する作用がある。し
たがって、ボロンの添加によってアルミニウムーリチウ
ム金属間化合物の微粉化を抑制することができる。Boron has the effect of imparting toughness to intermetallic compounds. Therefore, the addition of boron can suppress the pulverization of the aluminum-lithium intermetallic compound.
シリコンおよびビスマスは、リチウムイオンの拡散速度
を向上させる作用がある。したがって、これらの添加に
よってアルミニウム電極に吸蔵されたリチウムが電極表
面に局在することを抑制することができる。すなオつち
、リチウムの局在に起因する電極の崩壊を抑制すること
ができる。Silicon and bismuth have the effect of improving the diffusion rate of lithium ions. Therefore, these additions can prevent lithium occluded in the aluminum electrode from localizing on the electrode surface. In other words, collapse of the electrode due to localization of lithium can be suppressed.
ゲルマニウムおよびガリウムの作用は、充分明確でない
が、これらの添加によってアルミニウム表面の不動態皮
膜が不安定化して充放電の過電圧が低下することにより
電流密度が均一になって電極寿命が長期化するものと考
えられる。The effects of germanium and gallium are not fully clear, but their addition destabilizes the passive film on the aluminum surface, lowering the charging/discharging overvoltage, making the current density uniform, and extending the electrode life. it is conceivable that.
マンガンは、従来からよく知られているようにアルミニ

ルマニウム、およびガリウムと共にマンガンを添加する
とアルミニウム電極の崩壊を抑制し、電極寿命を長期化
することができる。As is well known, manganese has the effect of improving the strength of aluminum. Therefore, adding manganese to aluminum together with lithium, boron, silicon, bismuth, germanium, and gallium can suppress the collapse of the aluminum electrode and extend the life of the electrode.

From the figure, it can be seen that batteries 1 to 7 of the present invention have superior cycle life performance compared to conventional battery 8.
発明の効果
上記のように、本発明の電池は、長期のサイクル寿命性
能を可能にするというに優れた効果を有している。Effects of the Invention As described above, the battery of the present invention has an excellent effect of enabling long-term cycle life performance.
なお以上の効果とは別に、本発明のリチウム電池は、次
のような優れた特徴を持っている。すなわち、本発明の
リチウム電池は、金属リチウムを製造中に取り扱わずま
た電池内にも保有していないので、製造および使用時の
安全性がきわめて高い。安全性は、あらゆる電池性能の
中でもっとも重要な性能である。したがって、本発明の
リチウム電池は、二次電池のサイクル寿命を向上させる
だけでなく、−次電池に適用した場合にも安全性を向上
させる点で優れた効果を有している。In addition to the above effects, the lithium battery of the present invention has the following excellent features. That is, the lithium battery of the present invention has extremely high safety during manufacture and use because metallic lithium is not handled during manufacture and is not contained within the battery. Safety is the most important performance of all battery performance. Therefore, the lithium battery of the present invention not only improves the cycle life of a secondary battery, but also has excellent effects in improving safety when applied to a secondary battery.
