Description

本発明は、電池用非水電解液及びそれを備えた非水電解液二次電池に関し、特には、不燃性を有する電池用非水電解液、並びに優れた初期容量およびサイクル寿命特性と高い安全性を有する非水電解液二次電池に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte for a battery and a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery including the same, and in particular, a non-aqueous electrolyte for a battery having nonflammability, and excellent initial capacity and cycle life characteristics and high safety. The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery having a property.

非水電解液は、リチウム電池やリチウムイオン二次電池、電気二重層キャパシタ等の電解質として使用されており、これらデバイスは、高電圧、高エネルギー密度を有することから、パソコン及び携帯電話等の駆動電源として広く用いられている。そして、これら非水電解液としては、一般にエステル化合物及びエーテル化合物等の非プロトン性有機溶媒に、LiPF6等の支持塩を溶解させたものが用いられている。しかしながら、非プロトン性有機溶媒は、可燃性であるため、上記デバイスから漏液した際に引火・燃焼する可能性があり、安全面での問題を有している。 Non-aqueous electrolytes are used as electrolytes for lithium batteries, lithium-ion secondary batteries, electric double layer capacitors, etc., and these devices have high voltage and high energy density, so they drive personal computers and mobile phones. Widely used as a power source. As these nonaqueous electrolytic solutions, generally used are solutions in which a supporting salt such as LiPF 6 is dissolved in an aprotic organic solvent such as an ester compound and an ether compound. However, since the aprotic organic solvent is flammable, it may ignite and burn when it leaks from the device, and has a safety problem.

この問題に対して、非水電解液を難燃化する方法が検討されており、例えば、非水電解液にリン酸トリメチル等のリン酸エステル類を用いたり、非プロトン性有機溶媒にリン酸エステル類を添加したりする方法が提案されている(特許文献1〜3参照)。しかしながら、これらリン酸エステル類は、充放電を繰り返すことで、徐々に負極で還元分解され、充放電効率及びサイクル特性等の電池特性が大きく劣化するという問題がある。   To solve this problem, methods for making non-aqueous electrolytes flame-retardant have been studied. For example, phosphoric acid esters such as trimethyl phosphate are used for non-aqueous electrolytes, or phosphoric acid is used for aprotic organic solvents. Methods for adding esters have been proposed (see Patent Documents 1 to 3). However, these phosphate esters have a problem in that they are gradually reduced and decomposed at the negative electrode by repeating charge and discharge, and battery characteristics such as charge and discharge efficiency and cycle characteristics are greatly deteriorated.

また、特開平6−13108号公報(特許文献4)には、非水電解液に難燃性を付与するために、非水電解液にホスファゼン化合物を添加する方法が開示されている。該ホスファゼン化合物は、高い難燃性を示すものの、その種類、構造、または用いる電池極材種や非水電解液種によっては、電池の初期容量が低下したり、充放電特性に支障をきたすことがある。   Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-13108 (Patent Document 4) discloses a method of adding a phosphazene compound to a nonaqueous electrolytic solution in order to impart flame retardancy to the nonaqueous electrolytic solution. Although the phosphazene compound exhibits high flame retardancy, the initial capacity of the battery may be reduced or the charge / discharge characteristics may be hindered depending on the type, structure, or battery electrode material type or nonaqueous electrolyte type used. There is.

このように、これまでの従来技術では、電解液の安全性と電池性能の両立という点で必ずしも十分に満足できるレベルとはいえない。
特開平4−184870号公報 特開平8−22839号公報 特開2000−182669号公報 特開平6−13108号公報
As described above, the conventional techniques up to now cannot be said to be sufficiently satisfactory in terms of both the safety of the electrolytic solution and the battery performance.

そこで、本発明の目的は、上記従来技術の問題を解決し、不燃性を有する電池用非水電解液と、該電池用非水電解液を備え、初期容量およびサイクル寿命特性に優れ、高い安全性を有する非水電解液二次電池を提供することにある。   Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems of the prior art, and to provide a non-flammable battery non-aqueous electrolyte and the battery non-aqueous electrolyte, which have excellent initial capacity and cycle life characteristics, and high safety. An object of the present invention is to provide a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery having a property.

表1の実施例1〜4に示すように、式(I)の化合物と式(II)で表されるスルホン化合物を含む非水電解液が不燃性を示すと共に、該非水電解液を用いた電池が高い初期容量と優れたサイクル寿命特性を有していることが分かる。このように、本発明の非水電解液により、不燃性を発現しつつ、サイクル寿命特性及び安全性に優れた非水電解液二次電池が得られることが確認された。   As shown in Examples 1 to 4 in Table 1, the non-aqueous electrolyte containing the compound of formula (I) and the sulfone compound represented by formula (II) showed nonflammability, and the non-aqueous electrolyte was used. It can be seen that the battery has a high initial capacity and excellent cycle life characteristics. Thus, it was confirmed that the nonaqueous electrolyte solution of the present invention provides a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery that exhibits nonflammability and is excellent in cycle life characteristics and safety.

なお、比較例2に示すように、式(II)で表されるスルホン化合物を添加しない場合においては、実施例4と比較して、サイクル寿命特性が劣っていることが分かる。   As shown in Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that the cycle life characteristics are inferior to Example 4 when the sulfone compound represented by Formula (II) is not added.

更に、実施例5に示すように、式(I)で表される化合物の含有量が5体積%未満では、不燃性が発現されず、過充電安全性試験においても破裂を抑制できなかった。   Furthermore, as shown in Example 5, when the content of the compound represented by the formula (I) was less than 5% by volume, nonflammability was not exhibited, and rupture could not be suppressed even in the overcharge safety test.

一方、実施例6に示すように、式(I)で表される化合物の含有量が70体積%を超える場合には、不燃性や電池安全性に問題はないものの、初期容量が小さくなる傾向が認められた。従って、式(I)の環状ホスファゼン化合物の含有量は、10〜60体積%程度が好ましいことが分かる。   On the other hand, as shown in Example 6, when the content of the compound represented by the formula (I) exceeds 70% by volume, there is no problem in nonflammability and battery safety, but the initial capacity tends to be small. Was recognized. Therefore, it can be seen that the content of the cyclic phosphazene compound of the formula (I) is preferably about 10 to 60% by volume.

また、実施例7に示すように、式(II)で表されるスルホン化合物の添加量が0.1質量%未満の場合には、サイクル寿命特性における改善効果がほとんどなく、実施例8に示すように、3質量%を超える場合には、初期容量が低下する傾向が認められた。従って、式(II)で表されるスルホン化合物の添加量は、0.5〜2質量%程度が好ましいことが分かる。   Further, as shown in Example 7, when the addition amount of the sulfone compound represented by the formula (II) is less than 0.1% by mass, there is almost no improvement effect in cycle life characteristics, and as shown in Example 8. When the content exceeds 3% by mass, the initial capacity tends to decrease. Therefore, it is understood that the addition amount of the sulfone compound represented by the formula (II) is preferably about 0.5 to 2% by mass.

以上の結果から、式(I)で表される環状ホスファゼン化合物と式(II)で表されるスルホン化合物を含有することを特徴とする非水電解液を用いることにより、高い安全性と優れた電池性能を両立させた非水電解液二次電池を提供できることが分かる。   From the above results, by using a non-aqueous electrolyte characterized by containing a cyclic phosphazene compound represented by formula (I) and a sulfone compound represented by formula (II), high safety and excellent It can be seen that a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery having both battery performances can be provided.
