- Table 1 shows the free volume of the winding core of the batteries of the examples and comparative examples, and the electrical resistance per unit length of the protrusion. Note that the free volume of the winding core of the batteries and the electrical resistance per unit length of the protrusion in Table 1 are relative values when the battery of Comparative Example 1 is taken as 100. Also, the smaller the value of the electrical resistance per unit length of the protrusion, the lower the resistance.
- the electrical resistance is equivalent to that of the battery of Comparative Example 1, and the free volume of the winding core portion is greater than that of the battery of Comparative Example 1. Also, in the battery of Example 3, the electrical resistance is less than that of the battery of Comparative Example 1, and the free volume of the winding core portion is greater than that of the battery of Comparative Example 1. On the other hand, in the battery of Comparative Example 2, the free volume of the winding core portion is greater than that of the battery of Comparative Example 1, but the electrical resistance has increased significantly.

Abstract
Description
[正極の作製]
正極活物質としてアルミニウム含有ニッケルコバルト酸リチウム(LiNi0.88Co0.09Al0.03O2)を用いた。正極活物質としての100質量部のLiNi0.88Co0.09Al0.03O2正極活物質と、導電剤としての1.0質量部のアセチレンブラックと、結着剤としての0.9質量部のポリフッ化ビニリデン(PVDF)をN-メチルピロリドン(NMP)の分散媒中で混合して、正極合剤スラリーを作製した。作製した正極合剤スラリーを厚み15μmのアルミニウム箔の正極芯体の両面に均一に塗布した。次に、乾燥機中で100~150℃の温度でNMPを除去後、ロールプレス機により圧縮して正極板を作製した。正極板を厚み0.144mm、幅62.6mm、長さ860mmに裁断して正極を作製した。
黒鉛粉末を95質量部、Si酸化物を5質量部になるように混合して負極活物質を作製した。100質量部の負極活物質と、増粘剤としての1質量部のCMCと、結着剤としての1質量部のスチレンブタジエンゴムとを水中で混合して、負極合剤スラリーを作製した。負極合剤スラリーを、厚さ8μmの銅箔の負極芯体の両面に塗布して負極合剤層を形成した。次いで、乾燥した後、負極厚みが0.160mmになるように圧縮ローラで圧縮して負極を作製した。負極板を、幅64.2mm、長さ959mmに裁断して負極を作製した。
図4に示すように、上端および下端の厚みがそれぞれ100μm、200μmであり、上端から下端にかけて厚みが連続的に増加するニッケル製の負極リードを負極の巻内端側の負極芯体露出部に取り付けた。突出部の長さは10mmであり、接続部の長さは60mmである。実施例1の突出部の平均厚みは193μmであり、接続部の平均厚みは143μmであった。
正極および負極をポリエチレン製のセパレータを介して巻回して、最外周に幅12mm、厚み30μm、長さ50.0mmのポリプロピレン(PP)製のテープを、電極体の両端部10mm以内に貼着し、電極体を作製した。このとき、電極体の巻内端側の巻回構造は、図2に示す構造となるように作製し、電極体の最外周面には負極芯体露出部を配置した。
エチレンカーボネート(EC)とジメチルカーボネート(DMC)とからなる混合溶媒(体積比でEC:DMC=1:3)100質量部に、ビニレンカーボネート(VC)5質量部を添加し、LiPF6を1.5モル/リットル溶解して非水電解液を調製した。
電極体の上下に絶縁板を配置し、負極リードを外装缶に溶接すると共に、正極リードを内圧作動型の防爆弁を有する封口体に溶接して、外装缶の内部に収納した。その後、外装缶の内部に非水電解液を減圧方式により注入した。最後に、外装缶の開口端部を、ガスケットを介して封口板にかしめることにより円筒形の非水電解質二次電池を作製した。電池の容量は4600mAhであった。
図5に示すように、上端および下端の厚みがそれぞれ100μm、200μmであり、負極リードの中央部から下端にかけて厚みが連続的に増加するニッケル製の負極リードを負極の巻内端側の負極芯体露出部に取り付けた。実施例2の突出部の平均厚みは186μmであり、接続部の平均厚みは115μmであった。それ以外の構成は、実施例1と同様である。
図5に示すように、上端および下端の厚みがそれぞれ100μm、250μmであり、中央部から下端にかけて厚みが連続的に増加するニッケル製の負極リードを負極の巻内端側の負極芯体露出部に取り付けた。実施例3の突出部の平均厚みは229μmであり、接続部の平均厚みは122μmであった。それ以外の構成は、実施例1と同様である。
200μmの均一の厚みを有するニッケル製の負極リードを負極の巻内端側の負極芯体露出部に取り付けた。それ以外の構成は、実施例1と同様である。
