<Charge / discharge cycle characteristics> Batteries A to I of the present invention
For the comparative batteries J to R, a charge / discharge cycle test was performed in which the process of charging the battery to 200 V to 4.1 V and then discharging the battery to 200 V to 2.75 V was one cycle, and the charge / discharge cycle characteristics of each battery were examined. The charge / discharge cycle characteristics are as follows: capacity deterioration rate per cycle up to 500 cycles (% / cycle) [capacity deterioration rate = {(battery capacity at first cycle−battery capacity at 500th cycle) / battery capacity at first cycle } × 100 ÷ 500]. The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2 above.
