Description

非水電解質二次電池Nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery
　本発明は、非水電解質二次電池に関する。 The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery.
　従来、容器内に、正極合剤層と正極集電体とを有する正極と、負極合剤層と負極集電体とを有する負極と、非水電解液とを備える非水電解質二次電池が知られている。前記非水電解質二次電池では、電池反応を担う電荷担体として、例えば、リチウムイオンが用いられる。 Conventionally, a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising a positive electrode having a positive electrode mixture layer and a positive electrode current collector, a negative electrode having a negative electrode material mixture layer and a negative electrode current collector, and a non-aqueous electrolyte in a container. Are known. In the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, for example, lithium ions are used as the charge carrier responsible for the battery reaction.
　前記非水電解質二次電池は、過充電状態になると電解液の非水溶媒等が電気分解されて気体が発生し、内圧が上昇する。そこで、過充電により内圧が上昇したときに、正極又は負極と外部との通電を遮断する通電遮断機構を備える非水電解質二次電池が知られている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。 When the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery is overcharged, the non-aqueous solvent of the electrolytic solution is electrolyzed to generate gas, and the internal pressure rises. Therefore, a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery is known that includes an energization cutoff mechanism that interrupts energization between the positive electrode or the negative electrode and the outside when the internal pressure increases due to overcharging (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
　また、過充電時に前記通電遮断機構を確実に作動させるために、前記非水電解質二次電池の最大動作電力以上の電圧により反応して気体を生成する気体発生剤を電解液中に含む非水電解質二次電池が知られている（例えば、特許文献２参照）。前記気体発生剤を電解液中に含む非水電解質二次電池によれば、過充電時には、前記非水溶媒等の電気分解による気体の発生に先だって、前記気体発生剤から生成する気体により該非水電解質二次電池の内圧を上昇させ、前記通電遮断機構を確実に作動可能とすることができる。 In addition, in order to reliably operate the energization cutoff mechanism during overcharge, the non-aqueous electrolyte contains a gas generating agent that reacts with a voltage equal to or higher than the maximum operating power of the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery to generate gas. An electrolyte secondary battery is known (see, for example, Patent Document 2). According to the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery containing the gas generating agent in the electrolyte, at the time of overcharging, the non-aqueous electrolyte is generated by the gas generated from the gas generating agent prior to gas generation by electrolysis of the non-aqueous solvent or the like. By increasing the internal pressure of the electrolyte secondary battery, the energization cutoff mechanism can be reliably operated.

　しかしながら、特許文献２に記載の非水電解質二次電池では、前記気体発生剤が電解液中に添加されているために、該気体発生剤により電池反応が阻害され、入出力特性やエネルギー密度等の電池性能が低下するという不都合がある。 However, in the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery described in Patent Document 2, since the gas generating agent is added to the electrolytic solution, the cell reaction is inhibited by the gas generating agent, and the input / output characteristics, energy density, etc. There is an inconvenience that the battery performance decreases.
　また、非水電解質二次電池において、前記気体発生剤を正極合剤層又は、負極合剤層中に添加することも考えられるが、この場合には生成した気体が正極合剤層又は、負極合剤層中に閉じ込められ、前記通電遮断機構を作動させることができないことが懸念される。 In addition, in the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, it may be possible to add the gas generating agent to the positive electrode mixture layer or the negative electrode mixture layer. In this case, the generated gas is used as the positive electrode mixture layer or the negative electrode layer. There is a concern that the current-carrying-off mechanism cannot be operated because it is trapped in the mixture layer.
　本発明は、かかる不都合を解消して、電池性能を低下させることなく、過充電時には通電遮断機構を確実に作動させることができる非水電解質二次電池を提供することを目的とする。 An object of the present invention is to provide a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery that can eliminate such inconvenience and can reliably operate an energization cutoff mechanism during overcharge without deteriorating battery performance.
　かかる目的を達成するために、本発明の非水電解質二次電池は、容器内に、正極合剤層と正極集電体とを有する正極と、該正極集電体の正極合剤層未形成部と電気的に接続する容器内正極端子と、負極合剤層と負極集電体とを有する負極と、該負極集電体の負極合剤層未形成部と電気的に接続する容器内負極端子と、非水電解液と、該容器の内圧が上昇したときに該容器内正極端子又は該容器内負極端子と該容器外部との通電を遮断可能な通電遮断機構とを備える非水電解質二次電池において、該正極合剤層未形成部又は、該容器内正極端子の少なくとも１つの部材に、該非水電解質二次電池の最大動作電力以上の電圧により反応して該容器の内圧を上昇させ該通電遮断機構を作動可能とする気体を生成する正極活物質層を備えることを特徴とする。 In order to achieve this object, the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention includes a positive electrode having a positive electrode mixture layer and a positive electrode current collector in a container, and a positive electrode mixture layer of the positive electrode current collector not formed. In-container positive electrode terminal that is electrically connected to a portion, a negative electrode having a negative electrode mixture layer and a negative electrode current collector, and a negative electrode in a container that is electrically connected to a negative electrode mixture layer-unformed portion of the negative electrode current collector A non-aqueous electrolyte comprising: a terminal; a non-aqueous electrolyte; and an energization cutoff mechanism capable of interrupting energization between the positive electrode terminal in the container or the negative electrode terminal in the container and the outside of the container when the internal pressure of the container increases. In the secondary battery, the internal pressure of the container is increased by reacting with at least one member of the positive electrode mixture layer unformed part or the positive electrode terminal in the container with a voltage higher than the maximum operating power of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery. A positive electrode active material layer that generates a gas capable of operating the energization cutoff mechanism; To.
　本発明の非水電解質二次電池によれば、電池電圧が過充電により該非水電解質二次電池の最大動作電力以上の電圧になると、気体を生成する正極活物質層を形成する正極活物質が分解又は変質し、該正極活物質の組成中の元素が気化することにより気体が発生する。或いは、前記正極活物質又は変質した正極活物質が、前記導電助剤、バインダー又は電解液と、その界面で反応し、該導電助剤、バインダー又は電解液が分解して気体が発生する。 According to the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention, when the battery voltage becomes a voltage equal to or higher than the maximum operating power of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery due to overcharging, the positive electrode active material that forms the positive electrode active material layer that generates gas is A gas is generated when the element in the composition of the positive electrode active material is vaporized by being decomposed or altered. Alternatively, the positive electrode active material or the modified positive electrode active material reacts with the conductive auxiliary agent, binder, or electrolytic solution at the interface thereof, and the conductive auxiliary agent, binder, or electrolytic solution is decomposed to generate gas.
　この結果、前記容器内の内圧が上昇して、前記通電遮断機構が作動し、前記容器内正極端子又は前記容器内負極端子と該容器外部との通電を遮断するので、過充電を防止することができる。 As a result, the internal pressure in the container rises, the energization shut-off mechanism operates, and the energization between the positive electrode terminal in the container or the negative electrode terminal in the container and the outside of the container is interrupted, thereby preventing overcharge. Can do.
　このとき、本発明の非水電解質二次電池は、前記正極合剤層未形成部又は、前記容器内正極端子の少なくとも１つの部材に、前記正極活物質層を備えているので、前記正極合剤層、前記負極合剤層又は前記非水電解液における電池反応が前記正極活物質により阻害されることがなく、エネルギー密度等の電池性能が低下することを防止することができる。また、前記正極活物質の分解若しくは変質により、又は、該正極活物質又は変質した正極活物質と反応した前記導電助剤、バインダーもしくは電解液の分解により生成した気体が、該正極合剤層又は、該負極合剤層中に閉じ込められることがないので、前記通電遮断機構を確実に作動させることができる。 At this time, the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention includes the positive electrode active material layer in at least one member of the positive electrode mixture layer unformed part or the positive electrode terminal in the container. The battery reaction in the agent layer, the negative electrode mixture layer, or the non-aqueous electrolyte is not inhibited by the positive electrode active material, and the battery performance such as energy density can be prevented from being lowered. Further, a gas generated by decomposition or alteration of the positive electrode active material or by decomposition of the conductive additive, binder or electrolyte solution reacted with the positive electrode active material or the altered positive electrode active material is the positive electrode mixture layer or Since the negative electrode mixture layer is not trapped, the energization cutoff mechanism can be operated reliably.
　本発明の非水電解質二次電池において、前記気体を生成する正極活物質層は、正極活物質としてＬｉＮｉ０．５Ｍｎ１．５Ｏ４（ＬＮＭＯ）を含むことが好ましい。ＬｉＮｉ０．５Ｍｎ１．５Ｏ４（ＬＮＭＯ）は、反応電位が高く、前記電解液との反応性が高いので、容易に気体を発生させることができる。 In the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention, the positive electrode active material layer that generates the gas preferably contains LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 (LNMO) as the positive electrode active material. Since LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 (LNMO) has a high reaction potential and a high reactivity with the electrolytic solution, gas can be easily generated.
