SPECIFICATION TITLE OF THE INVENTION: NONAQUEOUS ELECTROLYTE SOLUTION, ELECTROCHEMICAL ELEMENT USING SAME, AND 1,2-DIOXYPROPANE COMPOUND USED IN SAME TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a nonaqueous electrolytic solution capable of improving low-temperature load characteristics after high temperature charging storage, an electrochemical element using it, and a 1,2-dioxypropane compound used for it. BACKGROUND ART [0002] In recent years, electrochemical elements, especially lithium secondary batteries have been widely used as power supplies for small-sized electronic devices such as mobile telephones, notebook-size personal computers and the like, power supplies for electric vehicles, as well as for electric power storage, etc. These electronic devices and vehicles may be used in a broad temperature range, for example, at midsummer high temperatures or at frigid low temperatures, and are therefore required to be improved in point of the charging and discharging cycle properties well balanced in a broad temperature range. A lithium secondary battery is mainly constituted of a positive electrode and a negative electrode containing a material capable of absorbing and releasing lithium, and a nonaqueous electrolytic solution containing a lithium salt and a nonaqueous solvent. For the nonaqueous solvent, used are carbonates such as ethylene carbonate (EC) , propylene carbonate (PC), etc. As the negative electrode, known are metal lithium, and metal compounds (metal elemental substances, oxides, alloys with lithium, etc.) and carbon materials capable of absorbing and releasing lithium. In particular, a lithium secondary battery using a carbon material capable of absorbing and releasing lithium, such as coke, artificial graphite, natural graphite or the like, has been widely put into practical use. [0003] For example, it is known that, in a lithium secondary battery using a highly-crystalline carbon material such as natural graphite, artificial graphite or the like as the negative electrode material therein, the decomposed product or gas generated through reductive decomposition of the solvent in the nonaqueous electrolytic solution on the surface of the negative electrode during charging detracts from the electrochemical reaction favorable for the battery, therefore worsening the cycle properties of the battery. Deposition of the decomposed product of the nonaqueous solvent interferes with smooth absorption and release of lithium by the negative electrode, and therefore, in particular, the low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage may be thereby often worsened. In addition, it is known that a lithium secondary-battery using a lithium metal or its alloy, or a metal elemental substance such as tin, silicon or the like or its metal oxide as the negative electrode material therein may have a high initial battery capacity but the battery-capacity and the battery performance thereof such as cycle properties greatly worsens, since the micronized powdering of the material is promoted during cycles thereby bringing about accelerated reductive decomposition of the nonaqueous solvent, as compared with the negative electrode of a carbon material. In addition, the micronized powdering of the negative electrode material and the deposition of the decomposed product of the nonaqueous solvent may interfere with smooth absorption and release of lithium by the negative electrode, and therefore, in particular, the low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage may be thereby often worsened. [0004] On the other hand, it is known that, in a lithium secondary battery using, for example, LiCo02, LiMn2O4, LiNiO2, LiFePO4 or the like as the positive electrode, when the nonaqueous solvent in the nonaqueous electrolytic solution is heated at a high temperature in the charged state, the decomposed product or the gas thereby locally generated through partial oxidative decomposition in the interface between the positive electrode material and the nonaqueous electrolytic solution interferes with the electrochemical reaction favorable for the battery, and therefore the low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage are thereby also worsened. [0005] As in the above, the decomposed product and the gas generated through decomposition of the nonaqueous electrolytic solution on the positive electrode or the negative electrode may interfere with the movement of lithium ions or may swell the battery, and the battery performance is thereby worsened. Despite the situation, electronic appliances equipped with lithium secondary batteries therein are offering more and more an increasing range of functions and are being in a stream of further increase in power consumption. With that, the capacity of lithium secondary batteries is being much increased, and the space volume for the nonaqueous electrolytic solution in the battery is decreased by increasing the density of the electrode and by reducing the useless space volume in the battery. Accordingly, the situation is that even decomposition of only a small amount of the nonaqueous electrolytic solution may worsen the high-temperature cycle properties and the low-temperature characteristics after high-temperature cycles. [0006] As a lithium primary battery, for example, known is one in which the positive electrode is formed of manganese dioxide or fluorographite and the negative electrode is formed of lithium metal, and the lithium primary battery of the type is widely used as having a high energy density, for which, however, it is desired to prevent the increase in the internal resistance during long-term storage and to improve the long-term storage performance at high temperatures. Recently, further, as a novel power source for electric vehicles or hybrid electric vehicles, electric storage devices have been developed, for example, an electric double layer capacitor using activated carbon or the like as the electrode from the viewpoint of the output density thereof, and a hybrid capacitor including a combination of the electric storage principle of a lithium ion secondary battery and that of an electric double layer capacitor (an asymmetric capacitor where both the capacity by lithium absorption and release and the electric double layer capacity are utilized) from the viewpoint of both the energy density and the output density thereof; and it is desired to improve the load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage of these capacitors. [0007] Patent Reference 1 discloses an electrolytic solution containing, in a nonaqueous solvent, from 0.1 to 3 0 parts by weight of a sulfonate compound of which the carbonate skeleton-containing 5-membered ring structure has an oxysulfonyl group at the 4-position thereof via a methylene chain, such as l,3-dioxan-2-onyl-4-methyl methyl sulfonate (also called 4-(methanesulfonyloxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-2-one), saying that the battery containing the electrolytic solution of the type is excellent in cycle properties. Patent Reference 2 discloses an electrolytic solution containing, in a nonaqueous solvent, from 0.1 to 30 parts by weight of erythritan sulfite of which the sulfite skeleton-containing 5-membered ring structure has an ether oxygen at the 4-position thereof via a methylene chain, saying that the battery containing the electrolytic solution of the type is excellent in cycle properties.

[0051] The 1,2-dioxypropane compound represented by the general formula (I) includes optical isomers. The optical isomers include R-form and S-form, both of which exhibit the effect of the present invention. The optical isomers may be in the form of a mixture thereof in a desired ratio; and both a case where one optical isomer is excessive over the other (optical active form) and a case where the two optical isomers exist in the same amount (racemic form) exhibit the effect of the present invention. Further, in the general formula (I) where X1 is a group >S=O, Y1 is a sulfinyl group, or Z1 is a group except hydrogen, the formula may have two asymmetric centers, and consequently, the formula may further include diastereomers in addition to the above-mentioned optical isomers. The diastereomers are not always the same in point of the chemical property or the electrochemical property thereof; and therefore, depending on the ratio of the diastereomers, the degree of the effect of the present invention may vary; however, any case where any of the optical isomers is used either singly or in the form of a mixture thereof can exhibit the effect of the present invention. [0052] The content of the 1,2-dioxypropane compound represented by the general formula (I) to be contained in the nonaqueous electrolytic solution of the present invention is preferably from 0.001 to 20% by mass of the nonaqueous electrolytic solution. When the content is at most 2 0% by mass, then the risk of excessive formation of a surface film on the electrode to worsen the low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage could be low; and when at least 0.001% by mass, then the surface film formation would be sufficient and the effect of improving low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage could be enhanced. The content is preferably at least 0.01% by mass of the nonaqueous electrolytic solution, more preferably at least 0.05% by mass, even more preferably at least 0.3% by mass, and its upper limit is preferably at most 10% by mass, more preferably at most 5% by mass, even more preferably at most 3% by mass. When added to the nonaqueous electrolytic solution of the present invention, the 1,2-dioxypropane compound representee, by the general formula (I; can improve low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage but when combined with a nonaqueous solvent, an electrolyte salt and further other additives to be mentioned below, the compound can exhibit a specific effect of synergistically improving low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage. Though the reason is not clear, it may be considered that a mixture surface film having a high ionic conductivity and comprising the constitutive elements of the nonaqueous solvent, the electrolyte salt and the other additives could be formed. [0053] [Nonaqueous Solvent] The nonaqueous solvent for use in the nonaqueous electrolytic solution of the present invention includes cyclic carbonates, linear carbonates, linear esters, lactones, ethers, amides, phosphates, sulfones, nitriles, S=0 bond-containing compounds, etc. The cyclic carbonates include ethylene carbonate (EC), propylene carbonate (PC), 1,2-butylene carbonate, 2,3-butylene carbonate, 4-fluoro-l,3-dioxolan-2-one (FEC), trans or cis-4,5-difluoro-l,3-dioxolan-2-one (hereinafter the two are collectively called "DFEC"), vinylene carbonate (VC), vinylethylene carbonate (VEC), etc. Of those, preferred is use of at least one cyclic carbonate having a carbon-carbon double bond or a fluorine atom, as markedly enhancing the effect of improving low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage; and more preferred is use of both a cyclic carbonate having a carbon-carbon double bond and a cyclic carbonate having a fluorine atom. As the cyclic carbonate having a carbon-carbon double bond, more preferred are VC and VEC; and as the cyclic carbonate having a fluorine atom, more preferred are FEC and DFEC. The content of the carbon-carbon double bond-containing cyclic carbonate is preferably at least 0.07% by volume relative to the total volume of the nonaqueous solvent, more preferably at least 0.2% by volume, even more preferably at least 0.7% by volume, and the upper limit thereof is preferably at most 7% by volume, more preferably at most 4% by volume, even more preferably at most 2.5% by volume. Falling within the range, the cyclic carbonate can favorably form a surface film on an electrode, as combined with the 1,2-dioxypropane compound having a sulfinyl group or a sulfonyl group at the 3-position and represented by the general formula (I) , and the stability of the surface film during high-temperature charging storage can be markedly enhanced not detracting from low-temperature load characteristics. The content of the fluorine atom-containing cyclic carbonate is preferably at least 0.07% by volume relative to the total volume of the nonaqueous solvent, more preferably at least 4% by volume, even more preferably at least 7% by volume, and the upper limit thereof is preferably at most 35% by volume, more preferably at most 25% by volume, even more preferably at most 15% by volume. Falling within the range, the cyclic carbonate can favorably form a surface film on an electrode, as combined with the 1,2-dioxypropane compound having a sulfinyl group or a sulfonyl group at the 3-position and represented by the general formula (I) , and the stability of the surface film during high-temperature charging storage can be markedly enhanced not detracting from low-temperature load characteristics. In case where the nonaqueous solvent contains both the carbon-carbon double bond-containing cyclic carbonate and the fluorine atom-containing cyclic carbonate, the ratio of the carbon-carbon double bond-containing cyclic carbonate to the content of the fluorine atom-containing cyclic carbonate is preferably at least 0.2% by volume, more preferably at least 3% by volume, even more preferably at least 7% by volume, and its upper limit is preferably at most 40% by volume, more preferably at most 30% by volume, even more preferably at most 15% by volume. The range is especially preferred since the stability of the surface film during high-temperature charging storage can be further more markedly enhanced not detracting from low-temperature cycle characteristics. Preferably, the nonaqueous solvent contains ethylene carbonate and/or propylene carbonate, as the resistance of the surface film formed on an electrode can be reduced. Preferably, the content of ethylene carbonate and/or propylene carbonate is at least 3% by volume relative to the total volume of the nonaqueous solvent, more preferably at least 5% by volume, even more preferably at least 7% by volume, and it's upper limit is preferably at most 45% by volume, more preferably at most 35% by volume, even more preferably at most 25% by volume. [0054] One kind of those solvents may be used, but using two or more different kinds as combined is preferred as further enhancing the effect of improving low-temperature cycle characteristics after high-temperature charging storage. Even more preferably, three or more different kinds are combined. Preferred combinations of the cyclic carbonates include EC and PC; EC and VC; PC and VC; VC and FEC; EC and FEC; PC and FEC; FEC and DFEC; EC and DFEC; PC and DFEC; VC and DFEC; VEC and DFEC; EC and PC and VC; EC and PC and FEC; EC and VC and FEC; EC and VC and VEC; PC and VC and FEC; EC and VC and DFEC; PC and VC and DFEC; EC and PC and VC and FEC; EC and PC and VC and DFEC; etc. Of those combinations, more preferred combinations are EC and VC; EC and FEC; PC and FEC; EC and PC and VC; EC and PC and FEC; EC and VC and FEC; PC and VC and FEC; EC and PC and VC and FEC; etc. Not specifically defined, the content of the cyclic carbonate is preferably within a range of from 10 to 40% by volume relative to the total volume of the nonaqueous solvent. When the content is at least 10% by volume, then the risk of lowering the electric conductivity of the nonaqueous electrolytic solution to worsen low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage may be low; and when the content is at most 40% by volume, then the risk of increasing the viscosity of the nonaqueous electrolytic solution to worsen low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage may be low. Consequently, the content preferably falls within the above-mentioned range. [0055] The linear carbonates include asymmetric linear carbonates such as methyl ethyl carbonate (MEC), methyl propyl carbonate (MPC), methyl isopropyl carbonate (MIPC), methyl butyl carbonate, ethyl propyl carbonate, etc.; symmetric linear carbonates such as dimethyl carbonate (DMC), diethyl carbonate (DEC), dipropyl carbonate, dibutyl carbonate, etc. Above all, DMC and/or DEC are preferred as the symmetric linear carbonate, and DMC is more preferred. At least one of MEC, MPC and MIPC is preferred as the asymmetric linear carbonate, and MEC is most preferred. Further more preferred is combined use of an asymmetric linear carbonate and a symmetric linear carbonate. When combined, preferably, the ratio of the asymmetric linear carbonate in the linear carbonate is from 50 to 90% by volume. Although one kind of those linear carbonates may be used, two or more kinds of them are preferably used in combination. Using the linear carbonates as combined in the manner as above so as to have the composition falling within the above-mentioned range is preferred as enhancing the effect of improving low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage. Not specifically defined, the content of the linear carbonate is preferably within a range of from 60 to 90% by volume relative to the total volume of the nonaqueous solvent. When the content is at least 60% by volume, then the risk of increasing the viscosity of the nonaqueous electrolytic solution may be low; and when at most 90% by volume, then the risk of lowering the electric conductivity of the nonaqueous electrolytic solution may be low. Consequently, the above-mentioned range is preferred as bettering battery characteristics such as load characteristics, etc. Regarding the ratio of the cyclic carbonate to the linear carbonate, the ratio of cyclic carbonate/linear carbonate (by volume) is preferably from 10/90 to 40/60, more preferably from 15/85 to 35/65, even more preferably from 20/80 to 30/70, from the viewpoint of improving low-temperature load characteristics after high-temperature charging storage.
