Description

固体電池およびその製造方法Solid battery and manufacturing method thereof
 本発明は、固体電池に関するものである。特に正極層がポリアニオン構造を有するリチウムリン複合酸化物とリチウム硫黄化合物を含む固体電池に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a solid state battery. In particular, the present invention relates to a solid battery in which a positive electrode layer includes a lithium phosphorus composite oxide having a polyanion structure and a lithium sulfur compound.
 近年、携帯電話、ノートパソコン、ハイブリッド電気自動車等の市場拡大に伴い、二次電池の需要が大きくなっている。その中でも、エネルギー密度が高く、充放電可能なリチウムイオン二次電池の開発が盛んに行われている。 In recent years, with the expansion of the market for mobile phones, notebook computers, hybrid electric vehicles, etc., the demand for secondary batteries has increased. Among them, development of lithium ion secondary batteries that have high energy density and can be charged and discharged has been actively conducted.
 リチウムイオン二次電池では、正極活物質としてコバルト酸リチウム等の金属酸化物、負極活物質として、黒鉛等の炭素材料、電解質として六フッ化リン酸リチウムを有機溶媒に溶解させたもの、すなわち、有機溶媒系電解液が一般に使用されている。このような構成の電池において、活物質量を増加させることにより内部エネルギーを増加させ、さらにエネルギー密度を高くし、出力電流を向上させる試みがなされている。また、電池を大型化すること、電池を車両に安全に搭載することも要求されている。 In a lithium ion secondary battery, a metal oxide such as lithium cobaltate as a positive electrode active material, a carbon material such as graphite as a negative electrode active material, and a lithium hexafluorophosphate dissolved in an organic solvent as an electrolyte, that is, Organic solvent electrolytes are generally used. In the battery having such a configuration, an attempt has been made to increase the internal energy by increasing the amount of the active material, further increase the energy density, and improve the output current. In addition, it is required to increase the size of the battery and to safely mount the battery in the vehicle.
 しかし、上記の構成のリチウムイオン二次電池では、電解質に用いられる有機溶媒は可燃性物質であるため、電池が発火する等の危険性がある。このため、電池の安全性をさらに高めることが求められている。 However, in the lithium ion secondary battery having the above configuration, since the organic solvent used for the electrolyte is a flammable substance, there is a risk that the battery may ignite. For this reason, it is required to further increase the safety of the battery.
 そこで、リチウムイオン二次電池の安全性を高めるための一つの対策として、有機溶媒系電解液に代えて固体電解質を用いることが検討されている。固体電解質として、高分子、ゲル等の有機材料、ガラス、セラミックス等の無機材料を適用することが検討され、中でも、不燃性のガラスまたはセラミックスを主成分とする無機材料を固体電解質として用いる全固体二次電池が注目されている。 Therefore, as one countermeasure for improving the safety of the lithium ion secondary battery, use of a solid electrolyte in place of the organic solvent-based electrolyte has been studied. The application of organic materials such as polymers and gels, and inorganic materials such as glass and ceramics as solid electrolytes has been studied. Among them, all solids using non-flammable glass or ceramics as the main component are used as solid electrolytes. Secondary batteries are attracting attention.
 例えば、特許文献1に、固体電解質に、メカニカルミリング処理により合成されるリチウムイオン導電性のLi2S-SiS2-P25を用いた固体電池が記載されている。特許文献1では、正極活物質にLiCoO2、負極活物質に金属リチウムを用いている。特許文献1には、LiCoO2は電気化学容量が大きく、粉砕条件により粒度の調整が比較的容易であるため特に好ましいことが記載されている。 For example, Patent Document 1 describes a solid battery using lithium ion conductive Li 2 S—SiS 2 —P 2 S 5 synthesized by mechanical milling as a solid electrolyte. In Patent Document 1, LiCoO 2 is used as the positive electrode active material, and metallic lithium is used as the negative electrode active material. Patent Document 1 describes that LiCoO 2 is particularly preferable because it has a large electrochemical capacity and is relatively easy to adjust the particle size depending on the grinding conditions.

 しかしながら、コバルト酸リチウムは、電気化学容量が大きい反面、コバルト資源の希少でかつ偏在していることから原料コスト高を招いており、低コスト化のための安価な正極活物質の開発が求められている。 However, while lithium cobaltate has a large electrochemical capacity, it has a high raw material cost due to the scarcity and uneven distribution of cobalt resources, and the development of an inexpensive positive electrode active material for cost reduction is required. ing.
 そこで、本発明は、正極活物質としてポリアニオン構造を有するリチウムリン複合酸化物を用いた放電抵抗が低い固体電池を提供する。 Therefore, the present invention provides a solid battery having a low discharge resistance using a lithium phosphorus composite oxide having a polyanion structure as a positive electrode active material.

Discharge resistance = (open circuit voltage before discharge−voltage 10 seconds after discharge) / constant current value For evaluation of battery characteristics, PS-08 galvanopotentiometer manufactured by Toho Giken was used. The measurement interval was 0.2 sec, and the voltage after 10 seconds was read at the point closest to 10 seconds.
 その結果、開回路電圧は、3.41V、放電後10秒後の電圧は1.63Vであった。また、放電抵抗は178kΩであった。以上より、10μAでの可逆的な充放電が可能であり、放電抵抗も小さかった。 As a result, the open circuit voltage was 3.41 V, and the voltage 10 seconds after the discharge was 1.63 V. The discharge resistance was 178 kΩ. From the above, reversible charging / discharging at 10 μA was possible and the discharge resistance was small.
 (比較例1)
 正極合材と固体電解質の積層体の作製において、加熱した積層体を使用せずに成形体を使用したこと以外は、実施例1と同様にして固体電池を作製した。
(Comparative Example 1)
A solid battery was produced in the same manner as in Example 1 except that in the production of the laminate of the positive electrode mixture and the solid electrolyte, the molded body was used without using the heated laminate.
 <電池特性の評価>
 上記の固体電池に対し実施例1と同様に、10μAで充電したところ、抵抗が高く、充電が進行しなかった。そこで電流値を低くし、5.5Vまで、5μAで定電流充電し、1.5Vまで10μAで定電圧放電を行った。さらに、放電前の開回路電圧、放電後10秒後の電圧を測定した。
<Evaluation of battery characteristics>
When the solid battery was charged at 10 μA as in Example 1, the resistance was high and charging did not proceed. Therefore, the current value was lowered, constant current charging was performed at 5 μA up to 5.5 V, and constant voltage discharging was performed at 10 μA up to 1.5 V. Furthermore, the open circuit voltage before discharge and the voltage 10 seconds after discharge were measured.
 その結果、開回路電圧は、3.40V、放電後10秒後の電圧は2.10Vであった。また、放電抵抗は260kΩであった。以上より、5μAではなんとか充放電可能なものの、電池抵抗は非常に高い結果となった。 As a result, the open circuit voltage was 3.40 V, and the voltage 10 seconds after discharge was 2.10 V. The discharge resistance was 260 kΩ. From the above, although 5 μA could be charged / discharged somehow, the battery resistance was very high.
 以上の結果を表1に示す。 The results are shown in Table 1.
