Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a non-aqueous solvent for electrolytic solution which is hard to be reduced and satisfies perfectly other physical and chemical characteristics by mixing a 1,3-dioxane-2-on derivative given by a specific structural expression with other non-aqueous solvent. CONSTITUTION:A 1,3-dioxane-2-on derivative given by the expression in attached illustration is mixed with a non-aqueous solvent such as ester, ether, etc. In expression, R1, R6 are alkyl radical given by general expression CnH2n+1 (n=1-4) or alkoxyl radical given by general expression OCnH2n+1 (n=1-4), and R2-R5 are H or alkyl radical given by general expression CnH2n+1 (n=1-4) or alkoxyl radical given by general expression OCnH2n+1 (n=1-4) O<1>-C<6>, O<3>-C<4> of this compound are hard to be cleaved, i.e., not likely to be reduced. Further, it has a high specific dielectric factor and is not likely reduced by other non-aqueous electrolyte PC, BC, to provide a favorable non-aqueous solvent for electrolyte to be used in a battery. As positive electrode active material is used a metal oxide or sulfide, while metal Li, Li alloy, or a carbonaceous material capable of occluding and releasing Li ions is used to the negative electrode.

However, in these secondary battery systems,
The low charge and discharge efficiency of the negative electrode is a big problem.

The main cause of this is Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1-286263.
As described in Japanese Patent Publication, it is thought that this is because the lithium deposited during charging is very active and reduces the solvent, and as a result, lithium changes into an electrochemically inactive compound. There is.

Of these, PC is most often used as a solvent for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery both as a single solvent and as a mixed solvent. However, by repeatedly charging and discharging, PC reacts with negative electrode lithium to give a reduction product. Occurs, which accumulates on the surface of the negative electrode and causes a decrease in charge / discharge efficiency.

The above-mentioned various solvents, especially PC, are also used in the lithium primary battery. In a primary battery, it is not necessary to consider the problem of charging, but there is a problem that the solvent is reduced due to the presence of active lithium at the time of discharging and the performance of the battery is deteriorated. Particularly, when a weak discharge is performed at a high temperature for a long time, the reaction between active lithium and a solvent is performed for a long time, and this tendency becomes remarkable, which may lead to a significant deterioration in battery performance. ..

Therefore, the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1-286263
In the publication, as a practical solution for making it difficult to react with lithium, carbonic acid as an additive is added to a known cyclic carbonic acid ester such as PC and BC, or a solvent containing a mixed solvent thereof and other ester or ether. The one to which lithium is added is used.

This is because the solvent containing cyclic carbonate such as PC reacts with lithium to produce lithium carbonate, but Li 2 CO 3 cannot discharge Li, so that lithium as a negative electrode active material is consumed and charged and discharged.

However, even if such an additive is added, it is still not a sufficient countermeasure against deterioration of characteristics as a solvent for a lithium secondary battery, and it is considered that the reduction of the solvent is the cause. The deterioration of the cycle characteristics is recognized. This means that even if additives are added,
It is suggested that the easiness of reduction of these cyclic carbonic acid ester itself cannot be sufficiently modified.

[Chemical 2] In the above, the present inventors have confirmed that all of R 1 to R 6 have a structure occupied by hydrogen and have a high relative dielectric constant. Therefore, it is suitable as an alternative substance that constitutes an electrolytic solution for a non-aqueous battery such as the PC,
Its use is expected.

However, when the reduction resistance of this substance is examined, the oxygen-carbon bond in O 1 -C 6 , O 3 -C 4 is likely to be cleaved, and a reduction product which causes deterioration of charge and discharge is generated. The same drawbacks as the PC are noticeable.
Even if only one of R 1 and R 6 is substituted with an alkyl group, the oxygen-carbon bond on the non-substituted side is likely to be cleaved for the same reason.

The carbon number n of the substituent is preferably about 1 to 4. This is meaningless even if the number of carbons is further increased, and is meaningless, and in addition to other physical characteristics such as an increase in viscosity and a decrease in relative permittivity, battery electrolysis is not performed. This is because problems occur as a liquid solvent. In addition, since the presence or absence of a substituent for C 5 does not contribute to the reduction resistance, hydrogen may be used as it is. However, when substituting, the number of carbon atoms is 1 to 4 in consideration of the same problems as described above.

The theoretical filling capacity of the positive electrode is 8.2 mAh,
The negative electrode is 7 mAh. The reason for increasing the theoretical capacity of the positive electrode is that after the first charge, the amount of lithium that can be involved in the next discharge is less than the charge capacity, and this is because the lithium was charged only in the first charge / discharge cycle. This is because a certain amount of lithium is taken into the carbonaceous negative electrode, and it will not be possible to discharge from the next time.
