Title:
NONAQUEOUS-ELECTROLYTE SECONDARY CELL, NEGATIVE-ELECTRODE MATERIAL THEREFOR, AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING NEGATIVE-ELECTRODE MATERIAL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/072704
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A negative-electrode material (10) for nonaqueous-electrolyte secondary cells
which comprises an alloy (11) comprising silicon and a transition metal and,
formed on the surface of the alloy (11), a silicon oxide film (12) and a transition-metal oxide
film (13); a nonaqueous-electrolyte secondary cell; and a process for producing
the negative-electrode material (10) for nonaqueous-electrolyte secondary
cells. With respect to negative-electrode materials of the kind shown above
for use in nonaqueous-electrode secondary cells represented by lithium secondary
cells, investigations have been made on techniques for inhibiting the size reduction
caused by a volume change during charging. However, an investigation has not
been sufficiently made on the thicknesses of the silicon oxide film and transition-metal
oxide film. None of the conventional techniques can give a negative-electrode
material for nonaqueous-electrolyte secondary cells which has satisfactory
withstand overvoltage characteristics, which are one of important properties
required of memory-backup power supplies. In the negative-electrode material
(10) for nonaqueous-electrolyte secondary cells, the ratio of the thickness
of the transition-metal oxide film (13) to the thickness of the silicon oxide
film (12) is from 0.44 to less than 1. This constitution is intended to improve withstand
overvoltage characteristics.
