However, since non-aqueous electrolyte batteries use highly active lithium as the negative electrode active material, they tend to react with various substances. Traditionally, propylene carbonate and ethylene carbonate, which are relatively stable, have been used as the electrolyte for non-aqueous electrolyte batteries, but when batteries are stored at high temperatures for long periods of time, the lithium and electrolyte gradually degrade. Reactions occur, causing various types of deterioration in battery performance.

Furthermore, when used as a secondary battery, dendrites are likely to occur, resulting in deterioration of cycle characteristics. For this reason, lithium alloys or composites with lithium are used for the negative electrodes of non-aqueous electrolyte batteries, but sufficient characteristics have not been obtained.
