Abstract

A binder composition for power storage devices comprising a polymer which contains at least 3 to 40 mass % of a first recurring unit derived from an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester having an alicyclic hydrocarbon group and 1 to 40 mass % of a second recurring unit derived from an α, β-unsaturated nitrile compound based on 100 mass % of the total of all recurring units.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A binder composition for power storage devices, the binder composition comprising:
a polymer comprising:
3 to 40 mass % of a first recurring unit derived from (a1) an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester comprising an alicyclic hydrocarbon group;
1 to 40 mass % of a second recurring unit derived from (a2) an α, β-unsaturated nitrile compound;
1 to 12 mass % of a recurring unit derived from (a3) an unsaturated carboxylic acid;
not more than 50 mass % of a recurring unit derived from (a4) a monomer having a fluorine atom;
30 to 90 mass % of a recurring unit derived from (a5) an unsaturated carboxylic acid ester excluding the unsaturated carboxylic acid ester having an alicylic hydrocarbon group and excluding the monomer having a fluorine atom; and
not more than 65 mass % of a recurring unit derived from (a6) at least one selected from the group consisting of a conjugated diene compound and an aromatic vinyl compound,

mass percentages above based on 100 mass % of a total of all recurring units.

2. The binder composition according to claim 1 , wherein a mass ratio of the first recurring unit to the second recurring unit in the polymer is from 0.3 to 30.

3. The binder composition according to claim 1 , wherein the recurring unit (a1) derived from the unsaturated carboxylic acid ester comprising an alicyclic hydrocarbon group is a recurring unit derived from at least one selected from the group consisting of a monocyclic cycloalkyl ester, a bicyclic cycloalkyl ester, a cyclic hydrocarbon ester comprising 3 or more rings, and a spirocyclic cycloalkyl ester of an unsaturated carboxylic acid.

4. The binder composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer comprises 3 to 10 mass % of the recurring unit derived from (a3) the saturated carboxylic acid.

5. The hinder composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer comprises 1 to 50 mass % of the recurring unit derived from (a4) the monomer comprising a fluorine atom.

6. The hinder composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer comprises 30 to 65 mass % of the recurring unit derived from (a6) the at least one selected from the group consisting of a conjugated diene compound and an aromatic vinyl compound, and no recurring unit (a4) derived from the monomer having the fluorine atom.

7. An electrode slurry for power storage devices, the electrode slurry comprising:
the binder composition according to claim 1 ; and
an electrode active material.

8. An electrode for power storage devices, the electrode comprising:
a collector; and
a layer formed by coating the electrode slurry according to claim 7 on a surface of the collector and drying the slurry.

9. A protective film slurry for power storage devices, the protective film slurry comprising:
the binder composition according to claim 1 ; and
a filler.

10. A protective film for power storage devices, formed from the protective film slurry according to claim 9 .

11. A separator, comprising the protective film according to claim 10 .

12. A power storage device, comprising:
a positive electrode;
a negative electrode; and
the protective film according to claim 10 sandwiched between the positive electrode and the negative electrode.
