Description

本発明は、正極と、負極と、非水系溶媒に溶質が溶解された非水電解液とを備えたリチウム電池に係り、その正極及び負極を改善して、保存時にリチウム電池の内部抵抗が上昇するのを抑制し、保存特性に優れたリチウム電池が得られるようにした点に特徴をものである。   The present invention relates to a lithium battery including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a non-aqueous electrolyte in which a solute is dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent. The positive electrode and the negative electrode are improved to increase the internal resistance of the lithium battery during storage. This is characterized in that a lithium battery excellent in storage characteristics can be obtained.

近年、様々な機器の電源としてリチウム電池が使用されるようになり、保存特性の高いリチウム電池が要望されている。   In recent years, lithium batteries have been used as a power source for various devices, and lithium batteries with high storage characteristics have been demanded.

このため、近年においては、リチウム電池における正極の活物質に、ある程度安定で保存中に非水電解液との反応が少ないβ−VOPO4を用いることが提案されている(例えば、非特許文献1参照。)。 For this reason, in recent years, it has been proposed to use β-VOPO 4 which is stable to some extent and has little reaction with the non-aqueous electrolyte during storage as a positive electrode active material in a lithium battery (for example, Non-Patent Document 1). reference.).

しかし、このように正極の活物質にβ−VOPO4を用いたリチウム電池においても、このリチウム電池を保存すると、上記の正極におけるβ−VOPO4からバナジウムが次第に非水電解液中に溶解し、このように溶解したバナジウムが負極におけるリチウムの表面を被覆するようになり、これにより負極におけるリチウムの放電が適切に行えなくなって、保存後のリチウム電池の内部抵抗が上昇し、保存特性が悪くなるという問題があった。
Journal of Electrochemical Society,146(12)4375−4379(1999)
However, even in such a lithium battery using β-VOPO 4 as the positive electrode active material, when this lithium battery is stored, vanadium gradually dissolves in the non-aqueous electrolyte from β-VOPO 4 in the positive electrode. The vanadium dissolved in this way covers the surface of lithium in the negative electrode, which makes it impossible to properly discharge lithium in the negative electrode, increasing the internal resistance of the lithium battery after storage and deteriorating the storage characteristics. There was a problem.
Journal of Electrochemical Society, 146 (12) 4375-4379 (1999)

本発明は、正極と、負極と、非水系溶媒に溶質が溶解された非水電解液とを備えたリチウム電池において、正極の活物質にβ−VOPO4を用いた場合における上記のような問題を解決することを課題とするものであり、保存中に正極における上記のβ−VOPO4から溶解したバナジウムにより負極におけるリチウムの表面が被覆されるのを抑制し、負極からのリチウムの放電が低下するのを防止し、保存時にリチウム電池の内部抵抗が上昇するのを抑制して、保存特性に優れたリチウム電池が得られるようにすることを課題とするものである。 The present invention is a lithium battery including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a non-aqueous electrolyte solution in which a solute is dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent, and the above-described problem when β-VOPO 4 is used as an active material of the positive electrode. In the storage, the surface of lithium in the negative electrode is suppressed from being covered with vanadium dissolved from the above β-VOPO 4 in the positive electrode, and the discharge of lithium from the negative electrode is reduced. Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to prevent the internal resistance of the lithium battery from increasing during storage and to obtain a lithium battery having excellent storage characteristics.

本発明においては、上記のような課題を解決するため、正極と、負極と、非水系溶媒に溶質が溶解された非水電解液とを備えたリチウム電池において、上記の正極の活物質にβ−VOPO4を用いると共に、上記の負極の活物質に、少なくともアルミニウムを含有するリチウム合金を用いた。 In the present invention, in order to solve the above problems, in a lithium battery including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a non-aqueous electrolyte solution in which a solute is dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent, -VOPO 4 was used, and a lithium alloy containing at least aluminum was used as the negative electrode active material.

そして、このように正極の活物質に上記のβ−VOPO4を用いると共に、負極の活物質に少なくともアルミニウムを含有するリチウム合金を用いると、このリチウム電池を保存した場合において、正極におけるβ−VOPO4からバナジウムが次第に非水電解液中に溶解しても、このように溶解したバナジウムが負極のリチウム合金に含まれるアルミニウムと結合し、負極におけるリチウムの表面がバナジウムで被覆されるのが防止されるようになる。 When the above-described β-VOPO 4 is used as the positive electrode active material and a lithium alloy containing at least aluminum is used as the negative electrode active material, β-VOPO in the positive electrode can be obtained when the lithium battery is stored. Even if vanadium gradually dissolves in the non-aqueous electrolyte from 4 , the dissolved vanadium is bonded to the aluminum contained in the lithium alloy of the negative electrode, preventing the lithium surface of the negative electrode from being covered with vanadium. Become so.

ここで、上記のリチウム電池において、負極の活物質である上記のリチウム合金に含有させるアルミニウムの量については、その量が少ないと、β−VOPO4から溶解したバナジウムがアルミニウムに充分に結合されなくて、バナジウムが負極におけるリチウの表面を被覆するようになる一方、その量が多くなりすぎると、バナジウムと結合したアルミニウムの部分が多くなり、何れの場合においても、負極におけるリチウムの放電が抑制されるようになる。このため、リチウム合金に含有させるアルミニウムの量を、好ましくは0.01〜5重量%の範囲、より好ましくは0.05〜2重量%の範囲にする。 Here, in the above lithium battery, with respect to the amount of aluminum contained in the above lithium alloy which is the active material of the negative electrode, if the amount is small, vanadium dissolved from β-VOPO 4 is not sufficiently bonded to the aluminum. As a result, vanadium covers the surface of lithium in the negative electrode, but if the amount is too large, the portion of aluminum bonded to vanadium increases, and in any case, lithium discharge in the negative electrode is suppressed. Become so. For this reason, the amount of aluminum contained in the lithium alloy is preferably in the range of 0.01 to 5% by weight, more preferably in the range of 0.05 to 2% by weight.

また、本発明のリチウム電池において、上記の非水電解液における溶質としては、一般に使用されているものを用いることができ、例えば、LiPF6,LiBF4,LiCF3SO3,LiN(CF3SO22,LiN(C25SO22,LiN(CF3SO2)(C49SO2),LiC(CF3SO23,LiC(C25SO23,LiAsF6,LiClO4,Li210Cl10,Li212Cl12や、これらの混合物等を用いることができる。特に、トリフルオロメタンスルホン酸リチウムLiCF3SO3を使用すると、上記の正極からバナジウムが非水電解液中に溶解しても、溶解したバナジウムがこの溶質における陰イオンとV(CF3SO33を形成し、このV(CF3SO33の溶解度が低いため、バナジウムが負極に移動せずに、V(CF3SO33の状態で正極の付近に析出し、正極から溶解したバナジウムによって負極におけるリチウムの表面が被覆されるのが一層抑制される。 Further, in the lithium battery of the present invention, commonly used solutes in the non-aqueous electrolyte can be used, for example, LiPF 6 , LiBF 4 , LiCF 3 SO 3 , LiN (CF 3 SO 2) 2, LiN (C 2 F 5 SO 2) 2, LiN (CF 3 SO 2) (C 4 F 9 SO 2), LiC (CF 3 SO 2) 3, LiC (C 2 F 5 SO 2) 3 LiAsF 6 , LiClO 4 , Li 2 B 10 Cl 10 , Li 2 B 12 Cl 12 , a mixture thereof, or the like can be used. In particular, when lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate LiCF 3 SO 3 is used, even if vanadium is dissolved in the non-aqueous electrolyte from the positive electrode, the dissolved vanadium is dissolved in the anion and V (CF 3 SO 3 ) 3 in this solute. Since V (CF 3 SO 3 ) 3 has a low solubility, vanadium does not move to the negative electrode, but precipitates in the vicinity of the positive electrode in the state of V (CF 3 SO 3 ) 3 and dissolves from the positive electrode. It is further suppressed that the surface of lithium in the negative electrode is covered with vanadium.

また、上記の非水電解液における非水系溶媒としても、一般に使用されているものを用いることかでき、例えば、エチレンカーボネート、プロピレンカーボネート、ブチレンカーボネート等の環状カーボネートや、ジメチルカーボネート、エチルメチルカーボネート、ジエチルカーボネート等の鎖状カーボネートや、1,2−ジメトキシエタン、1,2−ジエトキシエタン等のエーテル系溶媒や、これらの混合溶媒を用いることができる。特に、非水系溶媒として、エチレンカーボネートと1,2−ジメトキシエタンとの混合溶媒を用いると、上記のV(CF3SO33の溶解度がさらに低くなり、正極から溶解したニッケルが負極に移動するのが一層抑制され、負極におけるリチウムの表面が正極から溶解したバナジウムによって被覆されるのがさらに抑制されるようになる。 Further, as the non-aqueous solvent in the non-aqueous electrolyte, those generally used can be used, for example, cyclic carbonates such as ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, butylene carbonate, dimethyl carbonate, ethyl methyl carbonate, A chain carbonate such as diethyl carbonate, an ether solvent such as 1,2-dimethoxyethane, 1,2-diethoxyethane, or a mixed solvent thereof can be used. In particular, when a mixed solvent of ethylene carbonate and 1,2-dimethoxyethane is used as a non-aqueous solvent, the solubility of V (CF 3 SO 3 ) 3 is further lowered, and nickel dissolved from the positive electrode moves to the negative electrode. Thus, the lithium surface of the negative electrode is further prevented from being covered with vanadium dissolved from the positive electrode.

本発明のリチウム電池においては、上記のように正極の活物質にβ−VOPO4を用いると共に、負極の活物質に少なくともアルミニウムを含有するリチウム合金を用いたため、このリチウム電池を保存した場合において、正極におけるβ−VOPO4からバナジウムが次第に非水電解液中に溶解しても、このように溶解したバナジウムが負極のリチウム合金に含まれるアルミニウムと結合して、負極におけるリチウムの表面がバナジウムで被覆されるのが防止されるようになる。 In the lithium battery of the present invention, as described above, β-VOPO 4 is used as the positive electrode active material, and a lithium alloy containing at least aluminum is used as the negative electrode active material. Therefore, when this lithium battery is stored, Even if vanadium is gradually dissolved in the non-aqueous electrolyte from β-VOPO 4 in the positive electrode, the dissolved vanadium is combined with aluminum contained in the lithium alloy of the negative electrode, and the lithium surface in the negative electrode is covered with vanadium. To be prevented.

この結果、本発明のリチウム電池においては、負極におけるリチウムの放電がバナジウムの被覆によって低下するのが抑制され、保存時にリチウム電池の内部抵抗が上昇するのが防止されて、保存特性に優れたリチウム電池が得られるようになる。   As a result, in the lithium battery of the present invention, the lithium discharge at the negative electrode is suppressed from being reduced by the vanadium coating, the internal resistance of the lithium battery is prevented from increasing during storage, and lithium having excellent storage characteristics A battery can be obtained.

以下、この発明に係るリチウム電池について実施例を挙げて具体的に説明すると共に、この実施例に係るリチウム電池においては、保存後に内部抵抗が上昇するのが抑制されて、保存特性が向上することを、比較例を挙げて明らかにする。なお、本発明のリチウム電池は下記の実施例に示したものに限定されるものではなく、その要旨を変更しない範囲において適宜変更して実施できるものである。   Hereinafter, the lithium battery according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples, and in the lithium battery according to this example, the increase in internal resistance after storage is suppressed and storage characteristics are improved. Is clarified with a comparative example.
