[0003] The cause is that the lithium-ion battery is used in 4.1.
It has been determined that when the battery is left in a high-temperature atmosphere with a charged state of V or more, a decomposition reaction of the electrolyte occurs on the surface of the positive electrode, thereby generating gas. Such a condition may be satisfied when, for example, a mobile phone powered by a lithium ion battery is left in a car in a summer while being charged. In recent years, lithium-ion batteries have been increasingly charged at high voltage, and some secondary batteries use aluminum cases or aluminum laminate films with low withstand voltage. In such a case, there is a risk of rupture or liquid leakage. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a non-aqueous electrolyte battery device that can prevent an excessive increase in internal pressure.
