The present disclosure relates to a positive electrode for a secondary battery and a secondary battery.
Background
A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery that performs charge and discharge by transferring lithium ions between a positive electrode and a negative electrode has a high energy density and a high capacity, and therefore, is widely used as a driving power source for mobile information terminals such as mobile phones, notebook computers, and smart phones, or as a power source for power of electric tools, Electric Vehicles (EV), hybrid electric vehicles (HEV and PHEV), and the like.
Patent document 1 discloses an electrode plate for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery in which a primer layer and an electrode active material layer are sequentially laminated on a current collector, wherein the electrode active material layer contains a binder containing electrode active material particles and a metal oxide, and the primer layer contains a silicon element and an oxygen element at a specific ratio. Patent document 1 describes that the presence of a predetermined undercoat layer between the current collector and the electrode active material layer can prevent the electrode active material layer from peeling off and falling off from the current collector, and can provide stable use over a long period of time.
Disclosure of Invention
A positive electrode for a secondary battery is required, which can suppress a temperature rise caused when an abnormality such as an internal short circuit occurs while maintaining a good current collecting property, and can improve the safety of the secondary battery.
A positive electrode for a secondary battery according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a positive electrode current collector; a protective layer formed on the positive electrode collector and containing a silicone resin and a conductive material; and a positive electrode composite material layer formed on the protective layer and containing a positive electrode active material composed of a lithium-containing transition metal oxide.

Detailed Description
Patent document 1 discloses the following technique: an undercoat layer containing silicon and oxygen at a specific ratio is provided between the current collector and the electrode active material layer, and more specifically, the undercoat layer is provided by heating a coating film of a coating liquid obtained by dissolving/hydrolyzing a so-called silane coupling agent. However, since a resin obtained by hydrolysis of a silane coupling agent generally has electrical insulation properties, when the undercoat layer is provided on an electrode plate, there is a concern that the current collecting properties may be reduced.
A positive electrode for a secondary battery (hereinafter also referred to as "positive electrode") as one embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a positive electrode current collector; a protective layer formed on the positive electrode collector and containing a silicone resin and a conductive material; and a positive electrode composite material layer formed on the protective layer and containing a positive electrode active material composed of a lithium-containing transition metal oxide.
The inventors of the present invention found that: by providing the protective layer between the positive electrode current collector and the positive electrode composite material layer, it is possible to suppress a temperature rise caused when an abnormality such as an internal short circuit between the positive electrode current collector and the positive electrode composite material layer occurs while maintaining a good current collecting property of the positive electrode, and to improve the safety of a secondary battery (hereinafter also referred to as a "battery"). Further, since the positive electrode having the protective layer containing a silicone resin has excellent flexibility, stress applied to the positive electrode during winding or the like is relaxed, and thus the protective layer and the positive electrode composite material layer are less likely to be broken, and the yield in the battery production process can be reduced. Further, since the weight of the protective layer containing a silicone resin is reduced as compared with a protective layer containing inorganic compound particles as a main component, the total weight of the battery can be reduced while maintaining the function of suppressing temperature rise in the event of an abnormality.
Hereinafter, an example of the embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The drawings referred to in the description of the embodiments are schematic representations, and the dimensional ratios and the like of the components depicted in the drawings may be different from those of the actual components.

Examples of the lithium salt include LiBF4、LiClO4、LiPF6、LiAsF6、LiSbF6、LiAlCl4、LiSCN、LiCF3SO3、LiCF3CO2、Li(P(C2O4)F4)、LiPF6-x(CnF2n+1)x(1<x<6. n is 1 or 2), LiB10Cl10LiCl, LiBr, LiI, chloroborane lithium, lower aliphatic carboxylic acid lithium, Li2B4O7、Li(B(C2O4)F2) And salts of boric acid; LiN (SO)2CF3)2、LiN(C1F2l+1SO2)(CmF2m+1SO2) And { l and m are integers of 1 or more }, and the like. The lithium salt may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Among these, LiPF is preferably used from the viewpoint of ion conductivity, electrochemical stability, and the like6. The concentration of the lithium salt is preferably 0.8 to 1.8mol based on 1L of the solvent.
