- a carbonaceous material that does not occlude and release lithium ions such as carbon fibers and carbon nanotubes, may be added to the negative electrode mixture.
- Patent Document 1 describes a composite electrode agent containing particles containing an element capable of occluding and releasing lithium ions, carbon particles capable of occluding and releasing lithium ions, a multilayer carbon tube, and carbon nanofibers.

It is proposed to use an electrode produced by kneading and molding the kneaded product into a sheet for a lithium ion battery.
- Silicon-containing materials have a large volume change due to occlusion and release of lithium ions. Therefore, when a silicon-containing material is used as the negative electrode active material, the conductive path between the negative electrode active material particles is cut, the negative electrode active material particles are likely to be isolated, and the cycle characteristics are likely to be deteriorated.
- a negative electrode active material containing a silicon-containing material is used, combining carbon nanotubes makes it easy to secure conductivity between the negative electrode active material particles. On the other hand, by using carbon nanotubes, the surface area of the negative electrode mixture increases, side reactions increase, and the consumption of non-aqueous electrolyte becomes remarkable.
- the present disclosure comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a non-aqueous electrolyte.
- the negative electrode includes a negative electrode mixture containing a negative electrode active material capable of electrochemically occluding and releasing lithium ions and carbon nanotubes.
- the negative electrode active material contains a silicon-containing material and a carbonaceous material, and contains a silicon-containing material and a carbonaceous material.
- the non-aqueous electrolyte contains at least one cyclic ester selected from the group consisting of cyclic sulfate esters, cyclic sulfite esters, and sultones.

- Non-aqueous electrolyte It is possible to suppress the decrease of non-aqueous electrolyte when the secondary battery is repeatedly charged and discharged.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view in which a part of the non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is cut out.
- Cyclic esters such as ethylene sulfite and propane sultone suppress the decrease of non-aqueous electrolyte after repeated charging and discharging even when the non-aqueous electrolyte containing such cyclic ester is combined with the negative electrode mixture containing no carbon nanotube. Does not contribute much to. However, when the non-aqueous electrolyte containing the cyclic ester as described above is combined with the negative electrode mixture containing a specific amount of carbon nanotubes, surprisingly, the decrease of the non-aqueous electrolyte after repeated charging and discharging is suppressed. Became clear.

- the negative electrode includes a negative electrode mixture containing a negative electrode active material capable of electrochemically occluding and releasing lithium ions and carbon nanotubes.
- Negative electrode active materials include silicon-containing materials and carbonaceous materials.
- Non-aqueous electrolytes include at least one cyclic ester selected from the group consisting of cyclic sulfate esters, cyclic sulfite esters, and sultones.

- the details of the reason why the decrease of the non-aqueous electrolyte is suppressed are not clear, but when the negative electrode mixture does not contain CNT, the effect of suppressing the decrease of the non-aqueous electrolyte can be obtained even if the first component is used as the non-aqueous electrolyte. Since it is not observed, it is considered that the action of the first component on CNT suppresses the side reaction in which CNT is directly or indirectly involved. By using the first component, a sufficient effect of suppressing the decrease of the non-aqueous electrolyte can be obtained to compensate for the decrease of the non-aqueous electrolyte due to the use of CNT.
- the side reaction at the negative electrode is suppressed by using the first component, electrons are preferentially consumed in the charge / discharge reaction. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a decrease in capacity at the initial stage of charging / discharging. Further, since the negative electrode mixture contains CNT, cutting of the conductive path in the negative electrode mixture when charging and discharging are repeated is suppressed even though the Si-containing material is used as the negative electrode active material. In addition, since the first component suppresses side reactions even during repeated charging and discharging, it is possible to suppress a decrease in capacity after repeated charging and discharging. Therefore, excellent cycle characteristics can be ensured.

On the other hand, even if the negative electrode mixture having a CNT content of more than 0.05% by mass is combined with the non-aqueous electrolyte containing the first component, the effect of suppressing the decrease of the non-aqueous electrolyte by the first component is small.
