Description
【発明の詳細な説明】 産業上の利用分野 本発明は、有機電解質電池に間する。[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial applications The present invention relates to organic electrolyte batteries.
従来の技術およびその課題

ロンおよび鉛などのリチウムの吸蔵放出が可能な金属の
粉末またはこれらのリチウム合金の粉末を負極に用いた
ものもある。粉末負極板を用いた場合には、負極の作用
面積が増大するので電池性能の向上が期待できる。On the other hand, there are also negative electrodes using powders of metals capable of intercalating and extracting lithium, such as aluminum, bismuth, silicon, boron, and lead, or powders of lithium alloys of these metals. When a powder negative electrode plate is used, an improvement in battery performance can be expected because the active area of the negative electrode increases.
しかし、発明者は、粉末負極板を用いた有機電解質電池
について詳しく検討した結果、この電池が充電電気量に

いだした。However, as a result of detailed study of organic electrolyte batteries using powder negative electrode plates, the inventors found that this battery has a problem in that the amount of electricity discharged is smaller than the amount of electricity charged.

を解決するものである。Means for Solving the Problems The present invention provides a metal powder mainly consisting of a metal capable of intercalating and deintercalating lithium or a lithium alloy powder thereof, nickel,
The above problem is solved using an organic electrolyte battery characterized by having a negative electrode plate made of a mixture with powder or fiber of a metal that does not occlude lithium, such as titanium, stainless steel, copper, or iron.
作用
発明者は、粉末負極板の放電利用率が低い原因について
検討した結果つぎの現象を見いだした。The inventor investigated the cause of the low discharge utilization rate of the powder negative electrode plate and discovered the following phenomenon.
すなわち、粉末負極板は、充電によってリチウムを吸蔵
すると粉末粒子が著しく体積膨張して電極の孔をつぶす
結果、電極内部への電解液の拡散か困難になる。その後
、放電しても一旦膨張した粉末粒子の体積はほとんど収
縮しないので電解)夜の拡散は阻害されたままとなり電
極内部に吸蔵されたリチウムは放電が困難となる。この
ことが放電利用率か低い最大の原因と考えられる。した
かつて、粉末電極の放電利用率を向上させるには、電極
の多孔度を維持することが重要である。That is, when a powder negative electrode plate occludes lithium during charging, the powder particles significantly expand in volume and close the pores of the electrode, making it difficult for the electrolyte to diffuse into the electrode. After that, even if the powder particles are discharged, the volume of the once expanded powder particles will hardly shrink, so diffusion during the electrolysis period will remain inhibited, making it difficult to discharge the lithium occluded inside the electrode. This is considered to be the main reason for the low discharge utilization rate. Previously, in order to improve the discharge utilization rate of powder electrodes, it is important to maintain the porosity of the electrodes.
そこで、発明者は、粉末電極の多孔度を維持するために
リチウムを吸蔵しないニッケル、チタン。Therefore, the inventor developed nickel and titanium that do not absorb lithium in order to maintain the porosity of the powder electrode.
ステンレス、銅、鉄などの金属粉末を電極に添加した。Metal powders such as stainless steel, copper, and iron were added to the electrodes.
その結果、後の実施例に示すように電池の放電容量を著
しく向上させることができた。As a result, the discharge capacity of the battery could be significantly improved as shown in the examples below.
なお、電極の電子伝導性を損なわないためには金属粉末
なと電子伝導性に優れた添加物を用いた方がよい。In addition, in order not to impair the electronic conductivity of the electrode, it is better to use an additive with excellent electronic conductivity such as metal powder.
実施例 以下、本発明を好適な実施例を用いて説明する。Example The present invention will be explained below using preferred embodiments.
実施例では、アルミニウム合金についてだけ述へている
