Abstract:
A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery includes: a positive electrode collector core material; and a sheet body including a plurality of granulation bodies. The sheet body is disposed on the positive electrode collector core material. The granulation bodies each contain a first positive electrode active material particle, a second positive electrode active material particle, and expanded graphite, the first positive electrode active material particle including lithium-nickel composite oxide, the second positive electrode active material particle including lithium iron phosphate.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing an electrode sheet includes the steps of forming a granulated material containing a plurality of granules; forming an electrode mixture layer by molding the granulated material into a sheet; and placing the electrode mixture layer on electrode current collector foil. The step of forming the granulated material includes the steps of forming a granule containing at least an electrode active material and a binder; and adhering a polyglycerol fatty acid ester to a surface of the granule.
Abstract:
An electrode for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery includes an electrode mixture layer. The electrode mixture layer contains a hollow active material particle and a needle-shaped filler having a through-hole that extends through the needle-shaped filler in a longitudinal direction. The needle-shaped filler is arranged on surfaces of the hollow active material particle.
Abstract:
An inversion plate short-circuits the positive electrode external terminal and the negative electrode external terminal to each other by changing its position. A temperature sensitive member is disposed adjacent to the inversion plate on the side opposite to a direction in which the inversion plate changes its position. The volume of temperature sensitive member increases due to a rise in temperature. The temperature sensitive member contains aluminum phosphite and calcium carbonate.
Abstract:
A separator includes a base material layer and a heat resistance layer. The heat resistance layer includes, in a direction of thickness of the heat resistance layer, a central portion and a first end portion and a second end portion between which the central portion lies. The first end portion includes an interface with an electrode. The second end portion includes an interface with the base material layer. A composition ratio of a resin binder to a total mass of inorganic particles and the resin binder in the first end portion and the second end portion is not lower than 8 mass % and not higher than 30 mass %. A composition ratio of the resin binder to a total mass of the inorganic particles and the resin binder in the central portion is not lower than 2 mass % and not higher than 7 mass %.
