Definitions
- This disclosure relates to nonaqueous electrolytes for nonaqueous electrolyte batteries and nonaqueous electrolyte batteries.
- Non-aqueous electrolyte batteries such as lithium-ion secondary batteries, are equipped with a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a non-aqueous electrolyte.
- Metallic foreign matter such as copper or iron may be mixed into the positive electrode of a non-aqueous electrolyte battery. In such cases, the metallic foreign matter may dissolve and deposit on the negative electrode when the battery is charged and discharged. If metallic foreign matter deposits on the negative electrode, the battery's characteristics (e.g. voltage) are likely to deteriorate.
- Patent Document 1 Patent Publication No. 59352278 discloses "a lithium ion secondary battery containing an electrolyte, the electrolyte containing a lithium salt, an electrolyte solvent, and methanethiol, the methanethiol being contained in an amount of 1 to 10 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the electrolyte, the methanethiol reacting with copper ions generated during operation of the battery to prevent the formation of dendrites due to reduction of copper on the surface of the negative electrode.”
- one of the objectives of this disclosure is to provide a nonaqueous electrolyte that can suppress the deterioration of the characteristics of nonaqueous electrolyte batteries due to the dissolution and precipitation of metallic foreign matter.
- the nonaqueous electrolyte includes a nonaqueous solvent, an electrolyte salt, and an additive, the additive containing two electron-withdrawing groups R having the same structure, and the electron-withdrawing group R containing at least one element selected from the group consisting of oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur.
- the nonaqueous electrolyte battery includes a positive electrode containing a positive electrode active material, a negative electrode facing the positive electrode, and a nonaqueous electrolyte according to the present disclosure.
- FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway perspective view that typically illustrates a non-electrolytic battery according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.
- FIG. 2A shows the structures of the three additives (A) used in the examples.
- FIG. 2B shows the structures of the three additives (A) used in the examples.

- it is particularly preferable that the electron-withdrawing group R contains a nitrogen atom.
- metal ions may dissolve from the foreign metal objects into the non-aqueous electrolyte. These metal ions dissolved into the non-aqueous electrolyte move from the positive electrode side to the negative electrode side and precipitate on the negative electrode side. As this dissolution-precipitation reaction progresses, the precipitated metal grows into a dendrite shape, causing a decrease in the characteristics (e.g. voltage) of the non-aqueous electrolyte battery. For this reason, it is important to suppress the decrease in characteristics due to the dissolution and precipitation of foreign metal objects in non-aqueous electrolyte batteries.
- additive (A) captures metal ions (e.g. copper ions) in the non-aqueous electrolyte with its electron-withdrawing group R, suppressing the reductive precipitation reaction of the metal ions at the negative electrode.

- the positive electrode slurry was then applied to one side of an aluminum foil to form a coating film.
- the coating film was then dried, and then In this manner, a positive electrode including the aluminum foil and a positive electrode mixture layer (thickness: 95 ⁇ m, density: 3.6 g/cm 3 ) formed on the aluminum foil was obtained.
- additive (A) a compound shown in Table 1 was used as additive (A), a compound shown in Table 1 was used. The content (concentration) of additive (A) in the electrolyte was the value shown in Table 1.
- the positive electrode was cut into a predetermined shape. Next, a part of the positive electrode mixture layer was scraped off to expose the positive electrode current collector, which was used as a connection area with the positive electrode lead. In this way, a positive electrode including a region (size: 20 mm x 20 mm) that functions as a positive electrode and a connection area with the positive electrode lead was obtained. Spherical copper particles (diameter: about 100 ⁇ m) were intentionally embedded near the center of the positive electrode mixture layer. Next, the exposed part of the positive electrode current collector was connected to the positive electrode lead. Next, a predetermined area on the periphery of the positive electrode lead was covered with an insulating tab film. In this way, a positive electrode for evaluation was obtained.
- the negative electrode was cut into the same shape as the positive electrode. Next, the same processing as for the positive electrode was carried out to obtain a negative electrode including an area to function as a negative electrode and an area to connect to the negative electrode lead. Next, the exposed part of the negative electrode current collector was connected to the negative electrode lead. Next, a specified area on the outer periphery of the negative electrode lead was covered with an insulating tab film. In this manner, a negative electrode for evaluation was obtained.
- a battery was prepared using the positive and negative electrodes for evaluation.
- the positive and negative electrodes were arranged with a separator between them so that the positive electrode mixture layer and the negative electrode mixture layer faced each other to obtain an electrode group.
- a polyethylene separator (thickness: 12 ⁇ m) was used as the separator.
- an Al laminate film (thickness: 100 ⁇ m) cut into a rectangle (size: 60 mm x 90 mm) was folded in half.
- the end of the 60 mm long side of the folded laminate film was heat sealed to form a cylinder with a size of 60 mm x 45 mm.
- the prepared electrode group was placed in the cylinder.
- evaluation batteries A1 to A30 were obtained using an exterior body made of aluminum laminate film.
- Battery C1 Comparative Example Battery C1 was produced in the same manner and under the same conditions as Battery A1, except that the electrolyte solution (non-aqueous electrolyte) was changed.
- the electrolyte solution of Battery C1 was prepared in the same manner and under the same conditions as Battery A1, except that the additive (A) was not added.
- a reference battery R1 was prepared for reference.
- the configuration of the reference battery R1 was the same as that of the battery A1, except that no metallic copper balls were embedded in the positive electrode and no additive (A) was added to the non-aqueous electrolyte.
- the obtained reference battery R1 was charged at a constant current of 0.05C in a temperature environment of 25°C until the battery voltage reached 4.2V.
- 1C is the 1-hour rate current, which is the current value at which the entire battery capacity can be used up in 1 hour.
- the battery was discharged at a constant current of 0.05C until the battery voltage reached 2.5V, and a charge/discharge curve was obtained. Between charging and discharging, the battery was left to stand for 20 minutes in an open circuit state.
- the prepared evaluation battery A1 was clamped with a pair of clamps made of stainless steel (thickness: 2 mm) and fixed at a pressure of 0.2 MPa. Next, after 3 hours from the preparation of the battery A1, the battery A1 was charged at a constant current of 0.05 C in a temperature environment of 25 ° C until the battery voltage reached 4.2 V. Next, the battery A1 was discharged at a constant current of 0.05 C until the battery voltage reached 2.5 V. Next, the battery A1 was charged until the battery voltage reached 3.58 V. Then, the battery A1 was left in an environment of 25 ° C. Then, the battery voltage V1 after 48 hours and the battery voltage V2 after 72 hours were measured after leaving the battery in an environment of 25 ° C.
- the state of charge SOC 1 (%) after 48 hours and the state of charge SOC 2 (%) after 72 hours were calculated based on the charge/discharge curve of the reference battery R1 from the battery voltages V1 and V2 and the charge/discharge curve of the reference battery R1.
- the self-discharge rate sd per day was calculated based on the following formula. A low self-discharge rate sd indicates a small deterioration in the battery characteristics.
- Self-discharge rate sd (%) SOC 1 (%) - SOC 2 (%)
- Batteries A1 to A30 are nonaqueous electrolyte batteries according to the present disclosure. Batteries C1 to C9 are comparative examples. The structures of the three types of compounds used as additives (A) in batteries A1 to A15 are shown in Figure 2A. The structures of the three types of compounds used as additives (A) in batteries A16 to A30 are shown in Figure 2B. The structures of the four types of compounds added in batteries C2 to C9 are shown in Figure 3.
- the batteries A1 to A30 containing additive (A) had a lower self-discharge rate sd than the comparative batteries C1 to C9. This is believed to be because additive (A) captured the dissolved copper ions.
