Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a lithium ion secondary battery electrode allowing excellent charge-and-discharge cycle characteristics to be obtained when used in a lithium ion secondary battery. The lithium ion secondary battery electrode includes a current collector composed of a metal porous body having a three-dimensional network structure in which columnar skeletons are three-dimensionally connected, a first active material held on one side of the current collector, and a second active material held on the other side of the current collector.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A lithium ion secondary battery electrode comprising: a current collector composed of a metal porous body having a three-dimensional network structure; a first active material held on one side of the current collector; and a second active material held on the other side of the current collector. 2 . The lithium ion secondary battery electrode according to claim 1 , wherein the first active material comprises a high-capacity active material and the second active material comprises a high-power active material. 3 . The lithium ion secondary battery electrode according to claim 2 , wherein a thickness of the first active material held on one side of the current collector is larger than a thickness of the second active material held on the other side of the current collector. 4 . The lithium ion secondary battery electrode according to claim 2 , wherein the high-capacity active material comprises at least one composite metal oxide selected from a group consisting of Li(Ni 5/10 Co 2/10 Mn 3/10 )O 2 , Li(Ni 6/10 Co 2/10 Mn 2/10 )O 2 , Li(Ni 8/10 Co 1/10 Mn 1/10 O 2 , and Li(Ni 0.8 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 )O 2 , and the high-power active material comprises at least one composite metal oxide selected from a group consisting of Li(Ni 1/6 Co 4/6 Mn 1/6 )O 2 and Li(Ni 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 )O 2 . 5 . The lithium ion secondary battery electrode according to claim 2 , wherein the high-capacity active material comprises at least one material selected from a group consisting of artificial graphite, natural graphite, Si, and SiO, and the high-power active material comprises hard carbon.
