- This disclosure relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery.
- Patent Document 1 proposes an active material in which a surface layer containing a lithium sulfonate compound is formed on the particle surface of lithium titanate mainly composed of Li 4 Ti 5 O 12. Patent Document 1 describes that the use of this active material as a negative electrode active material can suppress the resistance change of a battery before and after storage under charge.
- a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery is a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a nonaqueous electrolyte, the positive electrode including a lithium-containing transition metal composite oxide and a sulfonic acid compound present on particle surfaces of the composite oxide, the sulfonic acid compound being a compound represented by formula (I):
- A is a Group 1 or Group 2 element
- R is a hydrocarbon group
- n is 1 or 2.

- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to an embodiment
- FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a particle cross-section of a silicon-containing material according to an embodiment.
- the main cause of such a decline in cycle characteristics is believed to be the large expansion and contraction of the negative electrode mixture layer as the charge and discharge depth is deepened, resulting in insufficient diffusion of the electrolyte in the negative electrode mixture layer and thus non-uniform battery reactions.
