【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、リチウム電池用活物質およびリチウム電池に関する。
【従来の技術】
これまでのところ、酸化チタンのスピネル相だけが電気化学的に活性を示すことが判っている。「J.Electochem.Soc.142,1431(1995年)」。式Li(Li1/3Ti5/3)O4で表されるこの物質は、空間群Fd3mに属する欠陥スピネル型骨格構造を呈し、単位格子パラメータはa=8.35Åである。この物質は、歪みのない挿入反応によってLi2(Li1/3Ti5/3)04へ変化し、その結果、より良好な繰り返し可逆性を示すようになることが判っている。
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、リチウムを吸蔵できる新規な活物質およびそれを使用したリチウム二次電池を提供することである。
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、ラムスデライト型構造を有する式Li1+XTi2-2XO4(0≦X≦0.5)で示されることを特徴とするリチウム二次電池用活物質であり、正極または負極のいずれか一方あるいは両方の活物質に用いたことを特徴としたリチウム電池とすることである。
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明によれば、Li1+XTi2-2XO4(0≦X≦0.5)で示される物質はラムスデライト型構造を呈し、TiO6型八面体構造を含むとともに、該八面体構造は稜を共有することにより互いに結合して無限二重鎖を形成する。これらの二重鎖は、隣接する鎖とそれらの頂点で連結して三次元骨格を形成することによって、隣接する二重鎖間にリチウムイオンを吸蔵出来る空の(2×1)トンネルを構築する。
【実施例】
次に、本発明を実施例及び図面を参照して説明するが本発明はこれらの例によって制限をうけるものではない。
本発明のLi1+XTi2-2XO4(0≦X≦0.5)をLi4Ti5O12、TiO2、および金属Tiが関与する2段階反応によって調整した。第一段階では、最初にLi2CO3とTiO2とを混合し、その混合物を700℃の温度で焼成してCO2除去することによってLi4Ti5O12を調整した。次に、得られた混合物を2〜3トンでペレット化し、920℃において4日間再度焼成してスピネル型のLi4Ti5O12を形成させた。続いて、Li4Ti5O12、、TiO2および金属Tiを使用してスピネル型のLiTiO2を調整した。この混合物をペレット化し、840℃において5%水素含有アルゴン下で焼成した。得られたスピネル相のLiTi2O4を真空下かつ温度範囲800〜1000℃において加熱し、ラムスデライト相のLiTi2O4を得た。
図1は、本発明に従って得られた物質のX線回折パターンを示している。本発明のLiTi2O4のX線回折は、単位胞パラメータa=5.03±0.2Å、b=9.62±0.2Å、およびc=2.95±0.2Å、ならびに空間群の斜方晶系ラムスデライト型構造に帰属することを示していると言える。この場合、この構造をγMnO2で報告された構造と類似の図2に示すトンネル型構造とみなすことができる。
この構造はTiO6型八面体構造を含むとともに、該八面体構造は稜を共有することにより互いに結合して無限二重鎖を形成する。これらの二重鎖は、隣接する鎖とそれらのの頂点で連結して三次元骨格を形成することによって、隣接する二重鎖間にリチウムイオンを可逆的に吸蔵できる空の(2×1)トンネルを構築する。
図3は、本発明の物質の最初のサイクルの充放電を示している。この試験は、電解液としてLiClO4+(2EC+2DMC+DEC)を使用するタイプのガラス電池で電流密度0.25mA/c〓において実施した。この電池は、負極(87%の本発明の活物質、5%カーボンブラック、8%PVDF)と、リチウム対電極と、リチウム照合電極とを備えている。最初に、この電池を充電して本発明の物質のトンネルからリチウムを放出させ、次に放電させてリチウムイオンをトンネル内へ吸蔵させた。
この電池は2Vと1Vとの間で単調な電位の変化を呈することから、充放電中、均一1相反応を起こすことが示唆される。中間電位は約1.3Vで、容量は180mAh/gを超える。この物質は、図4サイクリックボルタンモグラム曲線に示されるように、1.5Vを超える電位においても酸化−還元ピークを呈する。
【発明の効果】
本発明は、180mAh/gにも上る大容量を有するリチウムイオン電池の正極または負極活物質として使用可能な新しい酸化チタンを基材とする活物質を提供する。この物質は可逆的にリチウムを吸蔵しうる大きな2×1チャンネルを呈するラムスデライト型構造を有するために、繰り返し可逆性が良く、しかも放電率が高いリチウム二次電池の活物質としての有用性が極めて高いものである。

The present invention relates to an active material for a lithium battery and a lithium battery.
[Prior art]
So far, it has been found that only the spinel phase of titanium oxide is electrochemically active. “J. Electrochem. Soc. 142, 1431 (1995)”. This material represented by the formula Li (Li 1/3 Ti 5/3 ) O 4 exhibits a defect spinel skeleton structure belonging to the space group Fd3m, and the unit cell parameter is a = 8.35Å. This material has been found to change to Li 2 (Li 1/3 Ti 5/3 ) 0 4 by an unstrained insertion reaction, resulting in better repeatable reversibility.
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention is to provide a novel active material capable of occluding lithium and a lithium secondary battery using the same.
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention is an active material for a lithium secondary battery characterized by being represented by the formula Li 1 + X Ti 2-2X O 4 (0 ≦ X ≦ 0.5) having a ramsdellite structure, The lithium battery is characterized in that it is used for either or both of the negative electrode active materials.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
According to the present invention, the substance represented by Li 1 + X Ti 2-2X O 4 (0 ≦ X ≦ 0.5) exhibits a ramsdellite type structure, includes a TiO 6 type octahedral structure, and the octahedron The structures are joined together by sharing an edge to form an infinite duplex. These duplexes connect to adjacent chains at their vertices to form a three-dimensional skeleton, thereby constructing an empty (2 × 1) tunnel that can occlude lithium ions between adjacent duplexes. .
【Example】
Next, the present invention will be described with reference to examples and drawings, but the present invention is not limited by these examples.
Li 1 + X Ti 2-2X O 4 (0 ≦ X ≦ 0.5) of the present invention was prepared by a two-stage reaction involving Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 , TiO 2 , and metal Ti. In the first stage, Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 was prepared by first mixing Li 2 CO 3 and TiO 2 and firing the mixture at a temperature of 700 ° C. to remove CO 2 . Next, the obtained mixture was pelletized at 2 to 3 tons and fired again at 920 ° C. for 4 days to form spinel type Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 . Subsequently, spinel-type LiTiO 2 was prepared using Li 4 Ti 5 O 12, TiO 2 and metal Ti. The mixture was pelletized and fired at 840 ° C. under 5% hydrogen containing argon. The obtained spinel phase LiTi 2 O 4 was heated in a vacuum at a temperature range of 800 to 1000 ° C. to obtain a ramsdellite phase LiTi 2 O 4 .
FIG. 1 shows the X-ray diffraction pattern of the material obtained according to the invention. The X-ray diffraction of the LiTi 2 O 4 of the present invention shows that the unit cell parameters a = 5.03 ± 0.2Å, b = 9.62 ± 0.2Å, and c = 2.95 ± 0.2Å, and the space group It can be said that it belongs to the orthorhombic ramsdellite type structure. In this case, this structure can be regarded as the tunnel type structure shown in FIG. 2 similar to the structure reported for γMnO 2 .
This structure includes a TiO 6 type octahedral structure, and the octahedral structure is bonded to each other by sharing an edge to form an infinite double chain. These duplexes are empty (2 × 1) that can reversibly occlude lithium ions between adjacent duplexes by linking adjacent strands at their vertices to form a three-dimensional skeleton. Build a tunnel.
FIG. 3 shows the charge and discharge of the first cycle of the material of the invention. This test was carried out at a current density of 0.25 mA / c〓 with a glass battery of the type using LiClO 4 + (2EC + 2DMC + DEC) as the electrolyte. This battery includes a negative electrode (87% of the active material of the present invention, 5% carbon black, 8% PVDF), a lithium counter electrode, and a lithium reference electrode. First, the battery was charged to release lithium from the tunnel of the material of the invention and then discharged to occlude lithium ions into the tunnel.
This battery exhibits a monotonous change in potential between 2 V and 1 V, suggesting that it causes a uniform one-phase reaction during charge and discharge. The intermediate potential is about 1.3 V, and the capacity exceeds 180 mAh / g. This material exhibits an oxidation-reduction peak even at potentials above 1.5 V, as shown in the cyclic voltammogram curve of FIG.
【The invention's effect】
The present invention provides a new titanium oxide-based active material that can be used as a positive electrode or negative electrode active material of a lithium ion battery having a large capacity up to 180 mAh / g. Since this material has a ramsdellite structure exhibiting a large 2 × 1 channel capable of reversibly occluding lithium, it is useful as an active material for a lithium secondary battery having good repetitive reversibility and high discharge rate. It is extremely expensive.
