Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a binder composition for a secondary battery electrode that, when used in production of a slurry composition for a secondary battery electrode, enables favorable dispersion of an electrode active material and a conductive material in high concentration while ensuring coatability. The binder composition for a secondary battery electrode contains a binder. The binder includes a copolymer that includes an alkylene structural unit and a nitrile group-containing monomer unit, and that has a Mooney viscosity (ML 1+4 , 100° C.) of at least 50 and not more than 200.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A binder composition for a secondary battery electrode comprising a binder and an organic solvent, wherein the binder includes a copolymer in a proportion of 60 mass % or more, the copolymer includes an alkylene structural unit and a nitrile group-containing monomer unit, and the copolymer has a Mooney viscosity ML 1+4 of at least 110 and not more than 200 as measured in accordance with JIS K 6300-1 at a temperature of 100° C. 2. The binder composition for a secondary battery electrode according to claim 1 , wherein the copolymer includes the alkylene structural unit in a proportion of at least 40 mass % and not more than 80 mass %. 3. The binder composition for a secondary battery electrode according to claim 1 , wherein the copolymer includes the nitrile group-containing monomer unit in a proportion of at least 10 mass % and not more than 55 mass %. 4. The binder composition for a secondary battery electrode according to claim 1 , wherein a proportion constituted by a hydrophilic group-containing monomer unit among all repeating units in the copolymer is 0 mass % or more and less than 0.05 mass %. 5. A slurry composition for a secondary battery electrode comprising: an electrode active material; a conductive material; and the binder composition for a secondary battery electrode according to claim 1 . 6. The slurry composition for a secondary battery electrode according to claim 5 , wherein the electrode active material includes a Ni-containing active material. 7. An electrode for a secondary battery comprising an electrode mixed material layer formed using the slurry composition for a secondary battery electrode according to claim 5 . 8. A secondary battery comprising the electrode for a secondary battery according to claim 7 . 9. The binder composition for a secondary battery electrode according to claim 1 , wherein the copolymer does not include a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer unit and a hydrophilic group-containing monomer unit.
