Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a filler-containing resin film in which shedding of inorganic materials or the like is suppressed, a resin composition that can be used in production of the filler-containing resin film, and a method for producing the filler-containing resin film. The filler-containing resin film of the present invention is a filler-containing resin film comprising: a vinylidene fluoride copolymer obtained by copolymerizing vinylidene fluoride and a compound represented by formula (1) (in formula (1), R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 are each independently hydrogen atoms, chlorine atoms, or alkyl groups having from 1 to 5 carbons; and X′ is an atomic group having a molecular weight of 472 or less and having a main chain configured from 1 to 19 atoms); and an insulating inorganic filler. The resin film is produced by applying onto a substrate and then drying a resin composition containing the vinylidene fluoride copolymer, the insulating inorganic filler, and an organic solvent.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A filler-containing resin film for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising:
a vinylidene fluoride copolymer obtained by copolymerizing vinylidene fluoride and a compound represented by formula (2); and
an insulating inorganic filler:

wherein R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 are each independently hydrogen atoms, chlorine atoms, or alkyl groups having from 1 to 5 carbons; and
X″′ is an atomic group having a molecular weight of 456 or less and having a main chain having from 1 to 18 atoms,
wherein the average particle size of the insulating inorganic filler is from 5 nm to 2 μm,
wherein the filler-containing resin film comprises from 90 to 99.5 parts by mass of the insulating inorganic filler, per 100 parts by mass of the resin film, and
wherein in the filler-containing resin film, the insulating inorganic filler adheres to the vinylidene fluoride copolymer such that shedding of the inorganic filler from the resin film is suppressed.

2. The filler-containing resin film for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating inorganic filler is alumina or silicon dioxide.

3. A method for producing a filler-containing resin film for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery, the method comprising:
applying a resin composition on a substrate, the resin composition comprising:
a vinylidene fluoride copolymer obtained by copolymerizing vinylidene fluoride and a compound represented by formula (2),
an insulating inorganic filler, and
an organic solvent; and

drying the resin composition:

wherein R 1 , R 2 , and R 3 are each independently hydrogen atoms, chlorine atoms, or alkyl groups having from 1 to 5 carbons; and
X″′ is an atomic group having a molecular weight of 456 or less and having a main chain having from 1 to 18 atoms,
wherein the average particle size of the insulating inorganic filler is from 5 nm to 2 μm,
wherein the filler-containing resin film comprises from 90 to 99.5 parts by mass of the insulating inorganic filler, per 100 parts by mass of the resin film, and
wherein in the filler-containing resin film, the insulating inorganic filler adheres to the vinylidene fluoride copolymer such that shedding of the inorganic filler from the resin film is suppressed.

4. The method for producing a filler-containing resin film for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to claim 3 , wherein the substrate is an electrode or a separator.
