Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure relates to a secondary battery module including a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery and an elastic body. The elastic body has a compressive elastic modulus of 5 MPa to 120 MPa. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery includes a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The positive electrode includes a positive electrode collector containing Ti as a main component and having a thickness of 1 μm to 8 μm. The negative electrode includes a first layer and a second layer sequentially formed from a side with the negative electrode collector. The first layer contains negative electrode active material particles containing first carbon-based active material particles with a 10% proof stress of 3 MPa or less. The second layer contains negative electrode active material particles containing second carbon-based active material particles with a 10% proof stress of 5 MPa or greater.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A secondary battery module, comprising: at least one nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, and an elastic body disposed together with the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, for receiving a load from the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery in a direction in which the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery and the elastic body are disposed, wherein the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery includes an electrode body including a laminate of a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and an enclosure for storing the electrode body therein, the elastic body has a compressive elastic modulus of 5 MPa to 120 MPa, the positive electrode includes a positive electrode collector containing Ti as a main component and having a thickness of 1 μm to 8 μm, the negative electrode includes a negative electrode collector and a negative electrode active material layer including a first layer and a second layer sequentially formed from a side with the negative electrode collector, and the first layer contains negative electrode active material particles containing first carbon-based active material particles with a 10% proof stress of 3 MPa or less, and the second layer contains negative electrode active material particles containing second carbon-based active material particles with a 10% proof stress of 5 MPa or greater. 2. The secondary battery module according to claim 1 , wherein the negative electrode active material particles contained in the second layer each have a BET specific surface area that is smaller than a BET specific surface area of the negative electrode active material particles contained in the first layer. 3. A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, comprising: an electrode body including a laminate of a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, an elastic body for receiving a load from the electrode body in a lamination direction of the electrode body, and an enclosure for storing the electrode body and the elastic body therein, wherein the elastic body has a compressive elastic modulus of 5 MPa to 120 MPa, the positive electrode includes a positive electrode collector containing Ti as a main component and having a thickness of 1 μm to 8 μm, the negative electrode includes a negative electrode collector and a negative electrode active material layer including a first layer and a second layer sequentially formed from a side with the negative electrode collector, the first layer contains negative electrode active material particles containing first carbon-based active material particles with a 10% proof stress of 3 MPa or less, and the second layer contains negative electrode active material particles containing second carbon-based active material particles with a 10% proof stress of 5 MPa or greater.
