The present invention relates to a lithium ion secondary battery and to a production method thereof.
Lithium-ion secondary batteries that rely on lithium-ion intercalation and deintercalation reactions are widely used as secondary batteries of high energy density in various electronic devices, automotive power sources, power storage and the like. There is ongoing research and development being devoted to electrode materials and electrolyte materials, with a view to enhancing performance and reducing costs.
Lithium ion secondary batteries have recently attracted attention as mobile power sources in the wake of the development of IT devices such as smartphones and IoT devices. Batteries for these devices may need to exhibit new characteristics, for the purpose product differentiation. For instance flexibility and the like has become apparent as one such new characteristic.
A flexible battery is reported for instance in Non Patent Literature 1. This battery is reported to be thin and bendable, and to exhibit a discharge capacity of about 250 μAh/g at a discharge current having a current density of 0.1 mA/cm2.
Research is also being conducted on battery materials that transmit visible light, but such battery materials are problematic in terms of having low energy density; as a result, the materials need to be used in large quantities and the transparency of the battery as a whole is poor, all of which has precluded these materials from being put into practical use.
In Non Patent Literature 2 attention is given to Li2CoPO4F which is a polyanionic positive electrode active material, as an example of a battery of high voltage and high energy density. Herein Li2CoPO4F has two Li atoms per composition formula, and hence has a higher theoretical capacity (287 mgAh/g) than that of LiCoPO4. The actual capacity remains however at 172 mAh/g.
That is, designs and applications in IoT devices could be significantly expanded, and further reductions in size achieved, if a battery could be realized that is transparent to visible light and has high voltage and high energy density; however, such a battery does not exist, which is problematic.
It is thus an object of the present invention, arrived at in the light of the above considerations, to provide a high-voltage lithium ion secondary battery exhibiting high transparency to visible light and having high energy density, and to provide a method for producing the lithium ion secondary battery.
An aspect of the present invention is a lithium ion secondary battery having, as a positive electrode active material into and from which lithium ions can be intercalated and deintercalated, a lithium oxide represented by Formula Li(1+y)CoPO4X(y) (in the formula, X is selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br and I, and y lies in the range of 1<y≤2).
Another aspect of the present invention is a method for producing a lithium ion secondary battery, the method having a mixing and pulverizing step of obtaining a precursor by mixing and pulverizing a starting material containing Formula LiCoPO4, and formula yLiX (in the formula, X is selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br and I, and y lies in the range of 1<y≤2), within a container having an inert gas enclosed therein; and a thermal treatment step of obtaining a positive electrode active material represented by Formula Li(1+y)CoPO4X(y) (in the formula, X is selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br and I, and y lies in the range of 1<y≤2), by thermally treating the precursor in an inert gas.
The present invention allows providing a high-voltage lithium ion secondary battery exhibiting high transparency to visible light and having high energy density, and allows providing a method for producing the lithium ion secondary battery.
Embodiments of the lithium ion secondary battery of the present invention will be described below.
The negative electrode 1 contains metallic lithium, a lithium-containing substance, or a substance into and from which lithium ions can be intercalated and deintercalated. In the present embodiment lithium (Li) is used in the negative electrode 1 and polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) is used in the separator 2.
The electrolyte solution 4 contains an electrolyte having lithium ion conductivity. The electrolyte solution 4 of the present embodiment is an organic electrolyte solution in which a metal salt containing lithium ions, namely lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), is dissolved in a mixed solvent of ethylene carbonate and a dialkyl carbonate (volume ratio 1:1).
The material of the negative electrode 1, the material of the separator 2, and the material of the metal salt and the organic electrolyte solution pertaining to the electrolyte solution 4 are not limited to those above, and other materials may be used.
The positive electrode 3 has a positive electrode active material 31 into and from which lithium ions can be intercalated and deintercalated, and a collector foil 32. The positive electrode active material 31 of the present embodiment contains a lithium oxide represented by Formula Li(1+y)CoPO4X(y) (in the formula, X is selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br and I, and y lies in the range of 1<y≤2). Specifically, the positive electrode active material 31 contains a lithium oxide obtained through doping (intercalation) of lithium, along with a halogen (X), into LiCoPO4, which is a polyanionic positive electrode active material. Herein Al is used as the material of the collector foil 32 of the present embodiment, but a material other than Al may also be used.
As pointed out above, the present embodiment allows providing a high-voltage lithium ion secondary battery that has high transparency to visible light and has high energy density.
The positive electrode active material 31 can be obtained by mixing a lithium oxide represented by Formula Li(1+y)CoPO4X(y) (in the formula, X is selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br and I, and y lies in the range of 1<y≤2), carbon which is a conductive aid, and polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF), at arbitrary proportions, with pulverization followed by application onto the collector foil 32 using a bar coater, and with subsequent drying for 24 hours or longer.
In the present embodiment fibrous carbon is used as the carbon, but the carbon is not limited thereto, and it suffices that the carbon imparts electron conductivity. The carbon that is used may be carbon nanotubes, a fullerene, graphene, graphite or amorphous carbon.
The pulverization method may rely on the use of for instance a mixer, a homogenizer, an ultrasonic homogenizer, a high-speed rotary shear-type stirrer, a colloid mill, a roll mill, a high-pressure injection disperser, a rotary ball mill, a vibration ball mill, a planetary ball mill, an attritor or the like. Using a planetary ball mill allows for further atomization of carbon, and for increased battery capacity, and accordingly pulverization in the present embodiment is accomplished using a planetary ball mill.
To assemble the lithium ion secondary battery, the negative electrode 1, the separator 2 and the positive electrode 3 are assembled in this order in the coin cell 10, after which the electrolyte solution 4 is enclosed, with pressing to thereby enclose all the materials inside the coin cell 10.
The lithium ion secondary battery 100 can be produced as a result of the above steps.
(I) Production of a Positive Electrode Active Material
The production of a positive electrode active material is explained next. In each of the following preparation examples a positive electrode active material (lithium oxide) was produced on the basis of the chemical reaction formula below.
LiCoPO4+yLiX→Li(1+y)CoPO4X(y)
The value of y is arbitrary, and as long as it is a value lying in the range of 1<y≤2, a positive electrode active material of desired chemical structure can be obtained through adjustment of the charging amount of LiX. In the preparation examples y=1.5 and 2 were adopted. Herein X is a halogen selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br and I.
Specifically, the method for producing a positive electrode active material includes a mixing and pulverizing step and a thermal treatment step. In the mixing and pulverizing step, starting materials including Formula LiCoPO4 and formula yLiX are mixed and pulverized in a container filled with an inert gas, to yield a precursor. In the thermal treatment step, the precursor is thermally treated in the inert gas, to yield a positive electrode active material represented by Formula Li(1+y)CoPO4X(y). In the formula, X is selected from the group consisting of F, Cl, Br and I, and y lies in the range of 1<y≤2.

As starting materials (starting substances), lithium cobalt phosphate (LiCoPO4: Kojundo Kagaku KK) and lithium fluoride (LiF: FUJIFILM Wako Pure Chemical Corporation), which are commercially available reagents, were weighed so that the Co:F molar ratio was 1:1.5, were mixed with zirconia beads, and were pulverized using a planetary ball mill.
Pulverization was carried out in an inert atmosphere, using PM100 by Retsch GmbH as the planetary ball mill, and with an inert gas sealed in the container of the planetary ball mill. Zirconia beads having a diameter of 1.5 mm and zirconia beads having a diameter of 0.9 mm were used mixed with each other. Although pulverization is possible in an air atmosphere, an inert atmosphere is however preferable herein since in that case no by-products are formed through reaction with oxygen.
The revolution speed of the planetary ball mill was set to 400 rpm. The speed ratio was fixed to 1:−2. In a case where zirconia beads having a diameter larger than 1.5 mm were used, pulverization was not carried out, and a desired substance could not be obtained in the below-described thermal treatment step. The revolution speed of the planetary ball mill is preferably 300 rpm or higher. At a revolution speed lower than 300 rpm, pulverization was not carried out, and a desired substance could not be obtained in the below-described thermal treatment step.
The pulverized LiCoPO4 and LiF were mixed in a mortar, to obtain a mixture (precursor). A crucible was filled with the obtained mixture and the obtained mixture was heated at 780° C. for 24 hours in an argon atmosphere, using an electric furnace, to obtain Li2.5CoPO4F1.5. A gas other than argon may be used in the atmosphere, so long as the gas is an inert gas, and for instance helium, neon, nitrogen or the like can be used herein.
