Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention aims to provide an electrochemical device excellent in high temperature storage characteristics and cycling characteristics at high voltages, and a nonaqueous electrolyte for the electrochemical device. The present invention relates to an electrochemical device including: a positive electrode; a negative electrode; and a nonaqueous electrolyte containing a nonaqueous solvent and an electrolyte salt, wherein the nonaqueous solvent contains a fluorinated linear carbonate represented by the formula (1): RfOCOOR  (1) (wherein Rf represents a C1-4 fluorinated alkyl group and R represents a C1-4 alkyl group), and further contains following compounds of (I) to (III) in a total amount of not more than 5000 ppm relative to the fluorinated linear carbonate: (I) a compound represented by the formula (2) RfOH  (2) (wherein Rf is defined as above); (II) a compound represented by the formula (3) ROH  (3) (wherein R is defined as above); and (III) a compound represented by the formula (4) ROCOCl  (4) (wherein R is defined as above).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An electrochemical device comprising: a positive electrode; a negative electrode; and a nonaqueous electrolyte containing a nonaqueous solvent and an electrolyte salt, wherein the nonaqueous solvent contains a fluorinated linear carbonate represented by the formula (1): RfOCOOR  (1) (wherein Rf represents a C1-4 fluorinated alkyl group and R represents a C1-4 alkyl group), and further contains following compounds of (I) to (III) in a total amount of not more than 2500 ppm relative to the fluorinated linear carbonate: (I) a compound represented by the formula (2) RfOH  (2) (wherein Rf is defined as above); (II) a compound represented by the formula (3) ROH  (3) (wherein R is defined as above); and (III) a compound represented by the formula (4) ROCOCl  (4) (wherein R is defined as above). 2. The electrochemical device according to claim 1 , wherein the fluorinated linear carbonate is CF 3 CH 2 OCOOCH 3 or CF 3 CH 2 OCOOCH 2 CH 3 . 3. The electrochemical device according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of the fluorinated linear carbonate represented by the formula (1) is 0.01 to 90% by mass in the nonaqueous solvent. 4. The electrochemical device according to claim 1 , wherein the electrochemical device is a lithium ion secondary battery. 5. A nonaqueous electrolyte for an electrochemical device, comprising: a nonaqueous solvent; and an electrolyte salt, wherein the nonaqueous solvent contains a fluorinated linear carbonate represented by the formula (1): RfOCOOR  (1) (wherein Rf represents a C1-4 fluorinated alkyl group and R represents a C1-4 alkyl group), and further contains following compounds of (I) to (III) in a total amount of not more than 2500 ppm relative to the fluorinated linear carbonate: (I) a compound represented by the formula (2) RfOH  (2) (wherein Rf is defined as above); (II) a compound represented by the formula (3) ROH  (3) (wherein R is defined as above); and (III) a compound represented by the formula (4): ROCOCl  (4) (wherein R is defined as above).
