Non-aqueous electrolytic solution and lithium secondary battery

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolytic solution and a lithium secondary battery employing the non-aqueous electrolytic solution. In particular, the invention relates to a lithium secondary battery having improved electric capacity and cycling performance, and a non-aqueous electrolytic solution which is advantageously employable for preparing the lithium secondary battery.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] At present, potable small electronic devices such as personal computers, cellular phones, and video recorders equipped with camera are widely used, and a small sized secondary battery having light weight and high electric capacity is desired to provide an electric source for driving such small electronic devices. From the view-points of small size, light weight, and high electric capacity, a lithium secondary battery is paid attention.

[0003] The lithium secondary battery employs a positive active electrode material comprising a complex oxide such as lithium cobaltate, lithium nickelate, or lithium manganate, a negative active electrode material comprising a carbonaceous material such as graphite into which lithium ions are able to intercalate and from which lithium ions are able to escape, and a non-aqueous electrolytic solution of a lithium salt in a non-aqueous solvent comprising a cyclic carbonate and a linear chain carbonate. The lithium secondary battery is now studied for improving its performances.

[0004] The lithium secondary battery employing LiCoO2, LiOO4, or LiNiO2 as the positive electrode active material is generally used under such condition that the electric charge-discharge procedure is repeated in the range up to the maximum operating voltage exceeding 4.1 V. In the procedure, the conventional lithium secondary battery is apt to gradually lower in its electric capacity when the charge-discharge cycle is repeated for a long period. It is supposed that this trouble is caused by oxidative decomposition of a portion of the non-aqueous solvent of the electrolytic solution on the surface of the positive electrode when the maxim operating voltage exceeds 4.1 V, and the decomposition product disturbs the desired electrochemical reaction in the battery. Therefore, the conventional lithium secondary batteries are not satisfactory in their battery performances such as the cycling performance and an electric capacity when the batteries are operated in the charge-discharge cycles of which maxi operating voltage exceeds 4.1 V.

[0005] U.S. Pat. No. 5,879,834 describes incorporation of an aromatic additive such as biphenyl, 1,3-chlorothiophene, or furan into a non-aqueous rechargeable lithium battery. The additive is used in an amount of about 1% to 4%. The aromatic additive is electrochemically polymerized at abnormally high voltages, thereby increasing the internal resistance of the battery and thus protecting it.

[0006] U.S. Pat. No. 6,074,777 describes incorporation of an aromatic additive such as phenyl-R-phenyl compounds (R=aliphatic hydrocarbon), fluorine-substituted biphenyl compounds, or 3-thiopheneacetonitrile into a non-aqueous rechargeable lithium battery. The additive is preferably used in an amount of about 2.5%.

[0007] It is an object of the invention to provide a non-aqueous electrolytic solution which is favorably employable for a lithium secondary battery and which shows high battery performances such as high electric capacity and high cycling performance, particularly, under the conditions that the maximum operating voltage exceeds 4.1 V and/or the battery is used at high temperatures such as 40° C. or higher.

[0008] It is another object of the invention to provide a lithium secondary battery which shows high battery performances such as high electric capacity and high cycling performance, particularly, under the conditions that the maximum operating voltage exceeds 4.1 V and/or the battery is used at high temperatures such as 40° C. or higher.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0009] The present invention resides in a non-aqueous electrolytic solution which comprises a non-aqueous solvent and an electrolyte which further contains 0.001 to 0.8 weight % of a biphenyl derivative having the formula (I):

[0010] in which each of Y1 and Y2 independently represents a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group, a hydrocarbyl group, a hydrogen atom, an acyloxy group, an alkoxycarbonyloxy group, an alkylsulfonyloxy group or a halogen atom, and each of p and q independently is an integer of 1 to 3.

[0011] More preferably, the biphenyl derivative has the following formula (II):

[0012] in which Y represents a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group, a hydrocarbyl group, a hydrogen atom, an acyloxy group, an alkoxycarbonyloxy group, or an alkylsulfonyloxy group

[0013] In the formulas (I) and (II), the alkoxy group preferably has a formula of —OR1 in which R1 is a hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms; the hydrocarbyl group preferably has a formula of -R2 in which R2 has 1 to 12 carbon atoms; the acyloxy group preferably has a formula of —O—C(═O)-R3 in which R3 is a hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms; the alkoxycarbonyl group preferably has a formula of —O—C(═O)—O-R4 in which R4 is a hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms; the alkylsulfonyloxy group preferably has a formula of —O—S(═O)2-R5 in which R5 is a hydrocarbyl group having 1 to 12 carbon atoms; and a halogen atom can be F, Cl, Br or I.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0014] The non-aqueous electrolytic solution of the invention contains the biphenyl derivative of the formula (I) or the formula (II) in a very small amount such as 0.001 to 0.8 wt. %, preferably 0.01 to 0.5 wt. %, more preferably 0.03 to 0.3 wt. %. If the amount of the biphenyl derivative exceeds the upper limit, the incorporation of the biphenyl derivative does not give satisfactory improvements of the battery performances such as high electric capacity and high cycling performance. If the amount of the biphenyl derivative is less than 0.001 wt %., no noticeable improvement is observed.

[0015] It is supposed that the appropriate amount of the biphenyl derivative forms an appropriately thin film on the positive electrode upon its decomposition thereon to improve the battery performances, particularly, the cycling performance. If the amount of the additive, i.e., the biphenyl derivative, is too larger, a thick film is produced on the positive electrode, and the thick film disturbs the cycling performance of the battery.

The high dielectric constant solvent and the low viscosity solvent are preferably employed in a volume ratio of 1:9 to 4:1, preferably, 1:4 to 7:3 (former:latter).

[0019] The non-aqueous solvent may contain a phosphate ester such as triethyl phosphate, tributyl phosphate, or trioctyl phosphate, vinylene carbonate, and 1,3-propanesultone.

EXAMPLE 1

[0028] 1) Preparation of electrolytic solution

[0029] A non-aqueous solvent, i.e., a mixture (1:2, volume ratio) of propylene carbonate (PC) and diethyl carbonate (DEC), was prepared. Subsequently, LiPF6 was dissolved in the non-aqueous solvent to give a 1M concentration solution. Further, biphenyl was added to give a 0.1 wt. % solution. Thus, an electrolytic solution was prepared.

[0030] 2) Preparation of lithium secondary battery and measurement of battery performances

[0031] LiCoO2 (positive electrode active material, 80 wt %), acetylene black (electro-conductive material, 10 wt %), and poly(vinylidene fluoride) (binder, 10 wt. %) were mixed. The resulting mixture was diluted with 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone. Thus produced positive electrode composition was coated on aluminum foil, dried, molded under pressure, and heated to give a positive electrode.

[0032] Natural graphite (d002=0.3354, 90 wt. %) and poly(vinylidene fluoride) (binder, 10 wt. %) were mixed. The mixture was then diluted with 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone. Thus produced negative electrode composition was coated on copper foil, dried, molded under pressure, and heated, to give a negative electrode.

[0033] The positive and negative electrodes, a micro-porous polypropylene film separator, and the electrolytic solution were combined to give a coin-type battery (diameter: 20 mm, thickness: 3.2 mm).

[0034] The coin-type battery was charged for 6 hours at a high temperature (40° C.) with a constant electric current (0.8 mA) to reach 4.3 V and then the charging was continued under a constant voltage of 4.3 V. Subsequently, the battery was discharged to give a constant electric current (0.8 mA). The discharge was continued to give a terminal voltage of 2.7 V.
