Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery including: a positive electrode; a negative electrode; and an electrolyte solution. The negative electrode contains a negative electrode active material that is capable of electrochemically absorbing and desorbing lithium. The negative electrode active material contains a lithium silicate phase and silicon particles that are dispersed in the lithium silicate phase. The lithium silicate phase is an oxide phase that contains lithium, silicon, and oxygen. The atomic ratio O/Si of oxygen relative to silicon in the lithium silicate phase is greater than 2 and less than 4. The electrolyte solution contains a halogenated benzene. The amount of halogenated benzene contained in the electrolyte solution is 1 ppm or more and 500 ppm or less.

First claim
