Specification

The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte and a lithium secondary battery comprising the same. BACKGROUND ART 5 [0002] Recently, interests in energy storage technologies have been increasingly grown. While the application of the energy storage technologies is expanded to mobile phones, camcorders, notebook PCs, and even to electric vehicles, efforts for research and development of electrochemical 10 devices have been materialized. [0003] The development of rechargeable secondary batteries among these electrochemical devices has become the center of attention. Recently, in the development of the secondary batteries, research into the development of the design of 15 novel electrode and battery has been conducted in order to improve capacity density and specific energy. [0004] Among the currently used secondary batteries, lithium secondary batteries, developed in the early 1990's, are spotlighted because the lithium secondary batteries may have 20 higher operating voltage and significantly higher energy density than conventional batteries, such as Ni-MH batteries, Ni—Cd batteries, and H2SO4—Pb batteries, using aqueous electrolytes. However, the lithium secondary batteries may have limitations in that fire and explosion may occur due to 25 3 the use of organic electrolytes and the manufacture thereof may be difficult. Accordingly, lithium-ion polymer batteries for improving the limitations of the lithium secondary batteries have been developed. However, the capacities thereof may be relatively lower than those of the lithium 5 secondary batteries. [0005] During initial charge of a lithium secondary battery, lithium ions generated from a positive electrode active material, such as a lithium metal oxide, move to a negative electrode active material, such as graphite, to be 10 intercalated into the negative electrode active material. In this case, since the lithium ions are highly reactive, the lithium ions react with an electrolyte and carbon constituting the negative electrode active material on a surface of the negative electrode active material to form 15 compounds such as Li2CO3, Li2O, or LiOH. These compounds form a kind of stable film (solid electrolyte interface, SEI) on the surface of the negative electrode active material. The film formed on the surface of the negative electrode active material may only pass the lithium ions by acting as 20 an ion tunnel and may prevent the destruction of the structure of a negative electrode caused by the intercalation of organic solvent molecules having a high molecular weight, which move with the lithium ions in the electrolyte, into the negative electrode active material. Also, since the film may 25 4 prevent the contact between the negative electrode active material and the electrolyte, the decomposition of the electrolyte may not occur and the amount of the lithium ions in the electrolyte may be reversibly maintained. Thus, stable charge and discharge may be maintained. 5 [0006] However, with respect to the lithium secondary battery, since the carbon material may be desorbed from an electron transfer pathway due to the changes in lattice parameter of carbon and the generation of gas caused by the decomposition of the solvent as the charge and discharge 10 proceed, the capacity thereof may be reduced. Thus, in order to address these limitations, there is a continuous need to develop a method of improving initial capacity and power of the battery. DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION 15 TECHNICAL PROBLEM [0007] The present invention provides a non-aqueous electrolyte which may improve initial capacity and power characteristics as well as lifetime characteristics of a battery by forming a stable film on an electrode. 20 [0008] The present invention also provides a lithium secondary battery, a battery module, and a battery pack, which comprise the non-aqueous electrolyte. TECHNICAL SOLUTION [0009] According to an aspect of the present invention, 25 5 there is provided a non-aqueous electrolyte comprising: an organic solvent; a lithium salt; and a phosphorus compound of Formula 1, [0010] [Formula 1] POOOOX1X2mRnO3-n 5 [0011] wherein, in Formula 1, [0012] X1 and X2 are each independently a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, [0013] R is selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having 10 3 to 20 carbon atoms, a hydroxyl group, and an alkoxy group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, [0014] m is an integer of 0 to 29, and n is an integer of 1 or 2. ADVANTAGEOUS EFFECTS 15 [0015] Since a non-aqueous electrolyte according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a phosphorous compound including an acryloyloxy group as an electrolyte additive, a stable film may be formed on an electrode during charge and discharge when used in a battery. As a result, 20 initial capacity and power characteristics at room temperature and low temperature as well as lifetime characteristics of the battery may be improved. 6 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [0016] The following drawings attached to the specification illustrate preferred examples of the present invention by example, and serve to enable technical concepts of the present invention to be further understood together with 5 detailed description of the invention given below, and therefore the present invention should not be interpreted only with matters in such drawings.

MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION 25 7 [0023] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail to allow for a clearer understanding of the present invention. It will be understood that words or terms used in the specification and claims shall not be interpreted as the meaning defined in commonly used dictionaries. It 5 will be further understood that the words or terms should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and the technical idea of the invention, based on the principle that an inventor may properly define the meaning of the words or 10 terms to best explain the invention. [0024] According to an embodiment of the present invention, provided is a non-aqueous electrolyte comprising an organic solvent, a lithium salt, and a phosphorus compound of the following Formula 1. 15 [0025] [Formula 1] POOOOX1X2mRnO3-n [0026] In Formula 1, X1 and X2 are each independently a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms. In this case, the alkyl group may be specifically a linear or 20 branched alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, or a t-butyl group. Specifically, X 8 may be a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. [0027] Also, in Formula 1, R may be one selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having 3 to 20 carbon atoms, a hydroxyl group (-OH), and an alkoxy group having 1 to 20 5 carbon atoms. In this case, the alkyl group may be specifically a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, such as a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a t-butyl group, a hexyl group, a heptyl group, an octyl group, or a 10 decyl group, the cycloalkyl group may be specifically a cyclopropyl group, a cyclobutyl group, a cyclopentyl group, a cyclohexyl group, an adamantly group, or a norbornyl group, and the alkoxy group may be specifically a methoxy group, an ethoxy group, a propoxy group, a butoxy group, or a t-butoxy 15 group. Specifically, R may be a linear or branched alkyl group or hydroxyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms or a hydroxyl group, and, more specifically, may be a hydroxyl group. [0028] Also, in Formula 1, m is an integer of 0 to 29, 20 particularly, an integer of 0 to 3, and more particularly, an integer of 0 or 1. [0029] Furthermore, in Formula 1, n is an integer of 1 or 2. [0030] Specifically, the phosphorus compound of Formula 1 may be a compound, in which X1 and X2 in Formula 1 are each 25 9 independently a hydrogen atom or a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and R is a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms or a hydroxyl group. Specifically, the phosphorus compound of Formula 1 may be a compound, in which X 1 and X2 are each independently a 5 hydrogen atom or a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R is a hydroxyl group, m is an integer of 0 or 1, and n is an integer of 1 or 2. [0031] Also, the phosphorus compound of Formula 1, Specifically, may be a compound of the following Formula 1a 10 or 1b; [0032] [Formula 1a] R1POOOOOX1X2R2m [0033] [Formula 1b] POOOOX1X2mR32O 15 [0034] In Formulae 1a and 1b, X1, X2, and m are the same as defined above, [0035] R1 and R2 are each independently an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms or a cycloalkyl group having 3 to 20 carbon atoms, specifically, a linear or branched alkyl 20 10 group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and R 3 is a hydroxyl group (-OH) or an alkoxy group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, specifically, a hydroxyl group. In this case, the alkyl group, the cycloalkyl group, and the alkoxy group are the same as defined above. 5 [0036] More specifically, the phosphorus compound of Formula 1 may be one selected from the group consisting of compounds of the following Formulae 2a to 2f. POOOHOOOPOOOHOOOPOOOPOOOOOPOOOPOOOOO(2a)(2b)(2c)(2d)(2e)(2f) [0037] The phosphorus compound of Formula 1 may improve 10 lifetime characteristics as well as initial capacity and power characteristics at room temperature (23±5ºC) and low temperature (-10ºC±5ºC), particularly, at low temperature, by forming a stable solid electrolyte interface (SEI; passive film) on an electrode during charge and discharge of a 15 battery. Also, with respect to a lithium titanium oxide- 11 based negative electrode active material in a lithium secondary battery, a reductive decomposition reaction of an additive may be difficult to occur due to high potential and resistance of the SEI may be high due to catalytic properties of lithium titanium oxide even if the SEI is formed. In 5 contrast, in a case in which the phosphorus compound of Formula 1 is used as an electrolyte additive, since a P=O group included in the phosphorus compound stabilizes the catalytic properties of the lithium titanium oxide and an acryloyloxy group increases the reduction reaction, the 10 resistance of the SEI may be reduced. As a result, the performance and lifetime characteristics of the battery may be further improved. [0038] The above-described phosphorus compound of Formula 1 may be prepared according to a typical method and used, or a 15 commercially available product may be used. [0039] Also, the phosphorus compound of Formula 1 may be comprised in an amount of 0.05 wt% to 5.0 wt% based on a total weight of the non-aqueous electrolyte. In a case in which the amount of the phosphorus compound of Formula 1 is 20 less than 0.05 wt%, a stable film may be difficult to be formed on the electrode and, accordingly, the effect due to the formation of the film may not be sufficient. In a case in which the amount of the phosphorus compound of Formula 1 is greater than 5.0 wt%, since the formed thin film may act 25 12 as a resistance, there is a risk of reducing the initial capacity and power of the battery. [0040] The non-aqueous electrolyte according to the embodiment of the present invention may comprise an organic solvent and a lithium salt with the phosphorus compound of 5 Formula 1. [0041] Any organic solvent may be used as the organic solvent without particular limitation as long as it may function as a medium through which ions involved in an electrochemical reaction of the battery may move. 10 Specifically, the organic solvent may comprise a carbonate-based solvent, an ester-based solvent, an ether-based solvent, a ketone-based solvent, or an aromatic hydrocarbon-based solvent, and any one thereof or a mixture of two or more thereof may be used. 15 [0042] The carbonate-based organic solvent may specifically comprise cyclic carbonate, linear carbonate, or a mixture thereof. Specific examples of the cyclic carbonate may be ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, 1,2-butylene carbonate, 2,3-butylene carbonate, 1,2-pentylene carbonate, 20 2,3-pentylene carbonate, vinylene carbonate, vinyl ethylene carbonate, or a halide thereof. Also, specific examples of the halide may be fluoroethylene carbonate and the like, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Specific examples of the linear carbonate may be dimethyl carbonate, 25 13 diethyl carbonate, dipropyl carbonate, ethylmethyl carbonate, methylpropyl carbonate, and ethylpropyl carbonate, but the present invention is not limited thereto. [0043] Furthermore, the ester-based organic solvent may specifically comprise methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, methyl 5 propionate, ethyl propionate, propyl propionate, methyl butyrate, ethyl butyrate, dimethyl sulfoxide, acetonitrile, dimethoxy ethane, diethoxy ethane, sulfolane, γ-butyrolactone, propylene sulfide, or tetrahydrofuran, and any one thereof or a mixture of two or more thereof may be used. Among these 10 materials, the ester-based organic solvent may be a linear ester compound, such as methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, methyl propionate, ethyl propionate, propyl propionate, methyl butyrate, and ethyl butyrate, in consideration of a significant effect of improving low-temperature performance. 15 [0044] Also, the ether-based solvent may be specifically dibutyl ether or tetrahydrofuran, the ketone-based solvent may be specifically cyclohexanone, and the aromatic hydrocarbon-based solvent may be specifically benzene or fluorobenzene. 20 [0045] Since cyclic carbonate-based solvents, such as ethylene carbonate and propylene carbonate, among the above organic solvents are highly viscous organic solvents and have high dielectric constants, the cyclic carbonate-based solvents may well dissociate the lithium salt in the 25 14 electrolyte. Also, an electrolyte having higher electrical conductivity may be prepared when the above cyclic carbonate-based solvent is used by mixing with the ester-based solvent. Accordingly, the organic solvent may comprise a mixture of the above-described cyclic carbonate and ester-based solvent, 5 and may specifically comprise a mixture in which the above-described ester-based solvent is mixed at a higher concentration than the cyclic carbonate. Specifically, the organic solvent may comprise a mixture, in which the cyclic carbonate-based solvent and the ester-based solvent are mixed 10 in a volume ratio of 5:5 to 2:8. When the phosphorus compound of Formula 1 is used with the cyclic carbonate and the ester-based solvent that are mixed in the above volume ratio, a further improved effect of reducing internal resistance and improving battery characteristics may be 15 obtained. [0046] Also, as the lithium salt in the non-aqueous electrolyte, any lithium salt may be used without particular limitation as long as it is a compound typically used in a lithium secondary battery and capable of providing lithium 20 ions. Specifically, the lithium salt may comprise any one selected from the group consisting of lithium chloride (LiCl), lithium bromide (LiBr), lithium iodine (LiI), lithium perchlorate (LiClO4), lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4), lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), lithium 25 15 hexafluoroarsenate (LiAsF 6), lithium hexafluoroantimonate (LiSbF6), lithium tetrachloroaluminate (LiAlCl4), lithium methanesulfonate (CH3SO3Li), lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate (CF3SO3Li), lithium bis(trifluoromethyl)sulfonimide (LiN(SO2CF3)2), lithium 5 bis(perfluoroethylsulfonyl)imide (LiN(SO2C2F5)2), chloroborane lithium, lower aliphatic carboxylic acid lithium, and lithium tetraphenyl borate, or a mixture of two or more thereof. [0047] More specifically, the lithium salt may be lithium 10 hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6). Since LiPF6 has a high degree of dissociation, LiPF6 may increase the conductivity of the non-aqueous electrolyte and furthermore, may suppress the reductive decomposition reaction of the electrolyte on the negative electrode. Accordingly, when the phosphorus 15 compound of Formula 1 is used with LiPF6 as the lithium salt, a further improved effect in terms of room temperature and low-temperature cycle characteristics and low-temperature capacity characteristics may be obtained. [0048] Also, the lithium salt may be comprised in a 20 concentration of 0.6 mol/l to 2 mol/l in the non-aqueous electrolyte. In a case in which the concentration of the lithium salt is less than 0.6 mol/l, since the conductivity of the non-aqueous electrolyte may decrease, the performance of the non-aqueous electrolyte may be degraded. In a case in 25 16 which the concentration of the lithium salt is greater than 2 mol/l, the viscosity of the non-aqueous electrolyte may increase and thus, mobility of lithium ions may be reduced. In consideration of the conductivity of the non-aqueous electrolyte and the mobility of the lithium ions, the lithium 5 salt, specifically, may be comprised in a concentration of 0.7 mol/l to 1.6 mol/l in the electrolyte. [0049] In the non-aqueous electrolyte according to the embodiment of the present invention, an additive comprised in a non-aqueous electrolyte for the purpose of improving the 10 lifetime characteristics of the battery, preventing a decrease in the battery capacity, and improving the discharge capacity of the battery may be selectively further comprised in addition to the above-described components. [0050] Specifically, the additive may comprise pyridine, 15 triethylphosphite, triethanolamine, cyclic ether, ethylenediamine, n-glyme, hexaphosphoric triamide, a nitrobenzene derivative, sulfur, a quinone imine dye, N-substituted oxazolidinone, N,N-substituted imidazolidine, ethylene glycol dialkyl ether, an ammonium salt, pyrrole, 2-20 methoxy ethanol, or aluminum trichloride, and any one thereof or a mixture of two or more thereof may be used. Also, the additive may be comprised in an amount of 0.1 wt% to 1 wt% based on the total weight of the non-aqueous electrolyte. [0051] According to another embodiment of the present 25 17 invention, a lithium secondary battery comprising the above-described non-aqueous electrolyte is provided. [0052] Specifically, the lithium secondary battery comprises a negative electrode, a positive electrode, a separator, and the non-aqueous electrolyte. 5 [0053] The lithium secondary battery may be manufactured according to a typical method known in the art and may be manufactured by inserting a porous separator between a negative electrode and a positive electrode and injecting the non-aqueous electrolyte according to the present invention. 10 [0054] In the lithium secondary battery, the negative electrode comprises a negative electrode collector and a negative electrode active material layer disposed on the negative electrode collector. Also, the negative electrode active material layer may comprise a negative electrode 15 active material and may selectively further comprise a conductive agent and a binder. [0055] In the negative electrode active material layer, a compound capable of reversibly intercalating and deintercalating lithium may be used as the negative electrode 20 active material. As a specific example, a carbon material, a metal compound, or a mixture thereof may be used. Both low crystalline carbon and high crystalline carbon may be used as the carbon material. [0056] Typical examples of the low crystalline carbon may be 25 18 soft carbon and hard carbon, typical examples of the high crystalline carbon may be natural graphite, Kish graphite, pyrolytic carbon, mesophase pitch-based carbon fibers, meso-carbon microbeads, mesophase pitches, and high-temperature sintered carbon such as petroleum or coal tar pitch derived 5 cokes, and any material typically used as a carbon material for a lithium secondary battery may be used without limitation. [0057] Also, the metal compound may be a compound including at least one metal element selected from the group consisting 10 of silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), phosphorus (P), antimony (Sb), bismuth (Bi), aluminum (Al), gallium (Ga), indium (In), titanium (Ti), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), silver (Ag), magnesium (Mg), strontium (Sr), and barium (Ba). 15 These metal compounds may be used in any form such as a simple substance, an alloy, an oxide (TiO2, SnO2, etc.), a nitride, a sulfide, a boride, or an alloy with lithium, but the simple substance, the alloy, the oxide, and the alloy with lithium may obtain a high capacity battery. Among them, 20 the compound may contain at least one element selected from Si, Ge, and Sn, and a battery having higher capacity may be obtained when at least one element selected from Si and Sn is included. [0058] More specifically, the negative electrode active 25 19 material may include lithium titanium oxide (LTO). The lithium titanium oxide may be specifically Li 0.8Ti2.2O4, Li2.67Ti1.33O4, LiTi2O4, Li1.33Ti1.67O4, or Li1.14Ti1.71O4, and any one thereof or a mixture of two or more thereof may be used. [0059] In the presence of the negative electrode including 5 the lithium titanium oxide, when the non-aqueous electrolyte including the phosphorus compound according to the embodiment of the present invention is injected into the lithium secondary battery, the resistance of the SEI formed on the surface of the electrode may be reduced as described above. 10 [0060] Also, in the negative electrode, the conductive agent is used to provide conductivity to the negative electrode, and any conductive agent may be used without particular limitation so long as it has suitable electronic conductivity without causing adverse chemical changes in the battery. 15 Specific examples of the conductive agent may be carbon-based materials such as natural graphite or artificial graphite, carbon black, acetylene black, Ketjen black, channel black, furnace black, lamp black, thermal black, or carbon fibers; metal powders or metal fibers such as copper, nickel, 20 aluminum, or silver; acicular or dendritic conductive whiskers such as zinc oxide whiskers and calcium carbonate whiskers; conductive metal oxides such as titanium oxide; or conductive polymers such as polyphenylene derivatives, and any one thereof or a mixture of two or more thereof may be 25 20 used. The conductive agent may be included in an amount of 1 part by weight to 30 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the negative electrode active material. [0061] Furthermore, in the negative electrode, the binder improves the adhesion between negative active material 5 particles and the adhesion between the negative electrode active material and the current collector, and any binder may be used without particular limitation as long as it is typically used in a composition for forming a negative electrode. Specifically, the binder may include a 10 fluorinated polymer such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polytetrafluoroethylene, polyhexafluoropropylene, or a polyvinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene copolymer (PVDF-co-HFP); a polyalkylene-based polymer such as polyethylene or polypropylene; a poly(meth)acrylate-based polymer such as 15 polymethylmethacrylate or polyacrylate; polyacrylonitrile; a cellulose-based polymer such as carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC); or various rubbers such as a styrene-butadiene rubber or a fluorine rubber, and any one thereof or a mixture of two or more thereof may be used. 20 [0062] Also, the binder may be a fluorinated polymer which includes a functional group capable of hydrogen bonding with a hydroxyl group on the surface of the negative electrode active material, specifically, a carboxyl group, a hydroxyl group, a sulfonic acid group, and a glycidyl group. Thus, 25 21 the functional groups included in the binder may improve the adhesiveness by forming hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl groups present on the surface of the current collector or the surface of the negative electrode active material. Furthermore, since the binder may form a lithium-ion 5 selective permeable film on the surface of the negative electrode active material, the binder may suppress the formation of a lithium compound which is synthesized by a reaction between the electrolyte and lithium ions on the surface of the negative electrode active material during 10 initial discharge. As a result, since the amount of the thermally unstable lithium compound may be small even if the temperature in the battery is increased due to a short circuit, exothermic decomposition may be suppressed and the reaction between the electrolyte and the lithium ions in the 15 negative electrode material may be suppressed. The binder may be included in an amount of 1 part by weight to 30 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the negative electrode active material. [0063] In the lithium secondary battery, the positive 20 electrode includes a positive electrode collector and a positive electrode active material layer disposed on the positive electrode collector. Also, the positive electrode active material layer may include a positive electrode active material and may selectively further include a conductive 25 22 agent and a binder. [0064] In the positive electrode active material layer, a compound (lithiated intercalation compound) capable of reversibly intercalating and deintercalating lithium may be used as the positive electrode active material. Specifically, 5 the positive electrode active material may be a lithium transition metal oxide including lithium and a transition metal such as cobalt, manganese, nickel, or aluminum, and, specifically, any one selected from the group consisting of LixCoO2(0.5
