Patent ID: 10522838

Abstract:
Provided is a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery in which Li3PO4 is added to a positive electrode active material layer and the increase of battery temperature when the voltage rises is suppressed. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery disclosed herein includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a nonaqueous electrolytic solution. The positive electrode has a positive electrode active material layer. The positive electrode active material layer includes a positive electrode active material, Li3PO4, and polyvinyl alcohol having a degree of saponification of 86% by mole or more. The content of Li3PO4 in the positive electrode active material layer is 1% by mass or more and 15% by mass or less. The content of the polyvinyl alcohol having a degree of saponification of 86% by mole or more in the positive electrode active material layer is 0.05% by mass or more and 0.2% by mass or less.
