Description of the invention (1) [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a clock secondary battery, especially a negative electrode of a lithium secondary battery. [Previous technology] Batteries are devices that convert chemical energy into electrical energy. Battery products have evolved from early acid batteries, nickel-based batteries, and nickel-metal hydride batteries to current lithium batteries. Among them, acid batteries and nickel-cadmium batteries have gradually been replaced by lithium batteries due to environmental pollution. Mekong M batteries also have primary clock batteries and rechargeable batteries. Rechargeable lithium batteries are lithium secondary batteries. The biggest difference from traditional batteries is that they use organic solvents instead of aqueous solutions as the electrolyte. Imitation w Electric Computer (Computer) is referred to as the bulk density of the development direction of the 3C; (3) the tunnel structure of the electrode material, such as opening the structure to provide materials that can increase the battery as the anode material. However, the theory of energy ink The value of the secondary battery for his several materials is quite extensive. It mainly produces σ (Consumer Electronic Products), electrical and communication products (Communication Products), and other products. To meet the needs of various products, lithium secondary batteries include: (1) extending battery life; (2) increasing battery capacity and miniaturizing volume requirements; (4) removing capacity memory effects. The key to increasing the energy density is high-capacity electricity. For reversible electrode materials, layered or radioactive structural materials are the most suitable. In lithium secondary batteries, the ions have a pipeline that can easily enter and exit, fast mobility, and cycle life. At present, most commercial products use carbon materials such as natural graphite, graphite-like, coke, and carbon black. However, the 5 ′ carbon materials mentioned above are still relatively low. The actual value of the stone 372 mAh / g 'is about 32 ~ 34, and its energy density is lower.
1238555 五、發明說明(2) 理論上,鋰金屬為負極材料可得約9 0 0 mAh/g之高能 量密度,遠高於上述碳素材料。惟,經金属作為負極時易 與基材發生反應,並無法直接運用於電池製作過程。 有鑒於此,提供一種具有高能量密度,大電容量,且 使用壽命長之鋰二次電池實為必要。 【内容】 本發明之目的係提供一種具有高能量密度及高電容量 之經二次電池。1238555 V. Description of the invention (2) Theoretically, lithium metal as a negative electrode material can obtain a high energy density of about 900 mAh / g, which is much higher than the above carbon material. However, when metal is used as the negative electrode, it easily reacts with the substrate and cannot be directly used in the battery manufacturing process. In view of this, it is necessary to provide a lithium secondary battery having a high energy density, a large electric capacity, and a long service life. [Content] The object of the present invention is to provide a secondary battery with high energy density and high electric capacity.
