Abstract:
A negative electrode material for a lithium ion battery, in which a fine particle (A) containing an element selected from Si, Sn, Ge and In and a carbon particle (B) obtained by heat-treating a petroleum-based coke and/or a coal-based coke at a temperature of 2,500° C. or more are connected through a chemical bond such as urethane bond, urea bond, siloxane bond and ester bond. Also disclosed are a negative electrode sheet obtained by coating a current collector with a paste containing the negative electrode material, a binder and a solvent, and then drying and pressure-forming the paste; and a lithium ion battery incorporating the negative electrode sheet.
Abstract:
A negative electrode material for use in a lithium-ion battery is obtained by a method comprising subjecting a carbon particle (B) comprising a graphite material or the like to surface treatment with an oxidizing agent and then removing a residue of the oxidizing agent, modifying the carbon particle (B) from which the residue of the oxidizing agent has been removed with a silane coupling agent, modifying a particle (A) comprising an element capable of occluding and releasing a lithium ion, such as a Si particle, with a silane coupling agent, linking the modified carbon particle (B) and the modified particle (A) via a chemical bond, and coating a composite particle comprising the particle (A) and the carbon particle (B) linked to the particle (A) via a chemical bond with carbon.
