摘要:
A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery includes a positive electrode that contains a lithium composite oxide as an active material. The cut-off voltage of charge is set to 4.25 to 4.5 V. In a region where the positive electrode and the negative electrode face each other, the Wp/Wn ratio R is in the range from 1.3 to 19 where Wp is the weight of the active material contained in the positive electrode per unit area and Wn is the weight of the active material contained in the negative electrode per unit area. This battery is excellent in safety, cycle characteristics, and storage characteristics even when the cut-off voltage of charge in a normal operating condition is set to 4.25 V or more.

This invention provides a lithium secondary battery which degrades less upon high-rate charge/discharge cycles (thus durable). The lithium secondary battery comprises positive electrode 10 having positive electrode active material layer 14, negative electrode 20 having negative electrode active material layer 24, organic porous material layer 32 placed between positive electrode active material layer 14 and negative electrode active material layer 24, inorganic porous material layer 34 placed between organic porous material layer 32 and negative electrode active material layer 24. Inorganic porous material layer 34 comprises an inorganic filler that does not store lithium at a potential higher than the lithium-storing potential of the negative electrode active material layer, and a Li absorber that irreversibly stores lithium at a potential higher than the lithium-storing potential.

According to a deterioration detecting method for rechargeable lithium batteries, battery voltages of a rechargeable lithium battery before and after the completion of charging or discharging are measured. An evaluation value is calculated based on the measured battery voltages. This evaluation value is compared with a reference value of the rechargeable lithium battery stored in advance. A deterioration level of the rechargeable lithium battery is estimated based on this comparison result. In addition, further deterioration can be suppressed by controlling charging and discharging of the rechargeable lithium battery based on the estimated deterioration level.
