Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a nonaqueous electrolyte battery is provided. This nonaqueous electrolyte battery includes a negative electrode. The negative electrode includes a negative electrode active material including a titanium oxide, and has a coating that coats at least a portion of a surface of the negative electrode. The coating includes fluorine atoms, organic atoms and metal atoms.
Abstract:
A battery active material of the present embodiment includes a first active material and a second active material. The first active material contains a neutral or acidic active material substrate formed of a titanium oxide or a titanate compound, and an inorganic compound layer covering a surface of the active material substrate. The second active material is basic and is formed of a titanium oxide or a titanate compound. The first active material and/or the second active material are covered with a carbon coating layer.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an electrode composite is provided. The electrode composite includes a negative electrode active material-containing layer and an insulating particle layer. The negative electrode active material-containing layer includes negative electrode active material secondary particles having an average secondary particle size of from 1 μm to 30 μm. The insulating particle layer is provided on the negative electrode active material-containing layer. The insulating particle layer includes a first surface and a second surface opposed to the first surface. The first surface is in contact with the negative electrode active material-containing layer. The second surface has a surface roughness of 0.1 μm or less.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an electrode including an active material-containing layer and a film is provided. The active material-containing layer contains an active material containing a titanium-containing oxide. The film is present on at least a part of a surface of the active material-containing layer. The film contains fluorine, an organic atom, and a metal ion. The fluorine includes fluorine bonded to the organic atom and fluorine bonded to the metal ion. The film satisfies a relationship of following formula (1), where F1 is a proportion of the fluorine bonded to the organic atom, and F2 is a proportion of the fluorine bonded to the metal ion: 0.1≤F2/F1≤0.6 (1).
