In recent years, the demand for batteries as a power source for portable electronic devices such as mobile phones and portable personal computers has greatly increased. In a battery used for such an application, an electrolyte (electrolytic solution) such as an organic solvent has been conventionally used as a medium for moving ions.
しかし、上記の構成の電池では、電解液が漏出するという危険性がある。また、電解液に用いられる有機溶媒などは可燃性物質である。このため、電池の安全性をさらに高めることが求められている。
However, the battery having the above configuration has a risk of leakage of the electrolyte. Moreover, the organic solvent etc. which are used for electrolyte solution are combustible substances. For this reason, it is required to further increase the safety of the battery.
そこで、電池の安全性を高めるための一つの対策は、電解質として、電解液に代えて、固体電解質を用いることが提案されている。さらに、電解質として固体電解質を用いるとともに、その他の構成要素も固体で構成されている全固体電池の開発が進められている。
Therefore, as one countermeasure for improving the safety of the battery, it has been proposed to use a solid electrolyte as the electrolyte instead of the electrolytic solution. Furthermore, development of an all-solid battery in which a solid electrolyte is used as an electrolyte and the other constituent elements are also made of solid is being promoted.
たとえば、特開2007-258148号公報(以下、特許文献1という)には、不燃性の固体電解質を用いてすべての構成要素を固体で構成した全固体電池が提案されている。この全固体電池の実施例として、電極層(正極層、負極層)と固体電解質層とが焼成によって接合された積層型固体電池が記載されている。電極活物質としてのLi3V2(PO4)3に、導電剤としてのアセチレンブラックを25質量%となるように混合して電極ペーストを作製し、固体電解質層としてのLi1.5Al0.5Ge1.5(PO4)3焼結体の両面に電極ペーストをスクリーン印刷した後、700℃の温度で焼き付けて固体電池用積層体を作製している。
For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-258148 (hereinafter referred to as Patent Document 1) proposes an all-solid battery in which all components are made of solid using a nonflammable solid electrolyte. As an example of this all solid state battery, a stacked type solid state battery in which an electrode layer (positive electrode layer, negative electrode layer) and a solid electrolyte layer are joined by firing is described. An electrode paste was prepared by mixing Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 as an electrode active material with acetylene black as a conductive agent so as to be 25% by mass, and Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 as a solid electrolyte layer. (PO 4 ) 3 Electrode paste is screen-printed on both surfaces of the sintered body, and then baked at a temperature of 700 ° C. to produce a solid battery laminate.
しかしながら、電極活物質に導電剤としてのアセチレンブラックを25質量%添加して電極スラリーを作製して、電極スラリーと固体電解質スラリーとを一体焼成によって接合して固体電池用積層体を作製すると、焼結性が良好でなく、積層体の強度が低下することがわかった。このような発明者らの知見に基づいて本発明はなされたものである。
However, when an electrode slurry is prepared by adding 25% by mass of acetylene black as a conductive agent to the electrode active material, and the electrode slurry and the solid electrolyte slurry are joined by integral firing, a laminate for a solid battery is produced. It was found that the caking property was not good and the strength of the laminate was lowered. The present invention has been made based on such knowledge of the inventors.
したがって、本発明の目的は、電極活物質に導電剤として炭素材料を添加した電極材料を使用し、電極層と固体電解質層とを一体焼成によって接合しても、十分な積層体の強度を有する全固体電池およびその製造方法を提供することである。
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to have sufficient laminate strength even when an electrode material in which a carbon material is added as a conductive agent to an electrode active material is used and the electrode layer and the solid electrolyte layer are joined by integral firing. An all-solid-state battery and a method for manufacturing the same are provided.

(E) In the slurry preparation step, at least one of the positive electrode layer or negative electrode layer slurry contains an electrode active material and a conductive agent containing a carbon material, and is contained in at least one of the positive electrode layer or negative electrode layer slurry. The content of the carbon material is 1% by mass or more and less than 25% by mass. Here, the content of the carbon material contained in at least one of the positive electrode layer or the negative electrode layer slurry is based on the total amount of the inorganic material including the electrode active material, the solid electrolyte, the conductive agent, and other sintering aids. Refers to the mass ratio.
本発明の全固体電池では、正極層または負極層の少なくとも一方の出発材料に含まれる炭素材料の含有量が1質量%以上25質量%未満であるので、電極層と固体電解質層とを一体焼成によって接合しても、焼結性が良好で、十分な積層体の強度を得ることができるとともに、正極層内または負極層内に電子伝導性を付与することができ、その結果、良好な充放電特性を得ることができる。
In the all solid state battery of the present invention, since the content of the carbon material contained in at least one starting material of the positive electrode layer or the negative electrode layer is 1% by mass or more and less than 25% by mass, the electrode layer and the solid electrolyte layer are integrally fired. Can be obtained with good sinterability and sufficient strength of the laminate, and can impart electronic conductivity in the positive electrode layer or the negative electrode layer. Discharge characteristics can be obtained.
図1に示すように、本発明の全固体電池積層体10は、正極層11と固体電解質層13と負極層12とを備える。図2に示すように本発明の一つの実施形態として全固体電池積層体10は直方体形状に形成され、矩形の平面を有する複数の平板状層からなる積層体で構成される。また、図3に示すように本発明のもう一つの実施形態として全固体電池積層体10は円柱形状に形成され、複数の円板状層からなる積層体で構成される。なお、正極層11と負極層12のそれぞれは、電極活物質を含み、または、固体電解質と電極活物質とを含み、固体電解質層13は固体電解質を含む。正極層11または負極層12の少なくとも一方が、炭素材料を含む導電剤を含む。
As shown in FIG. 1, the all-solid battery stack 10 of the present invention includes a positive electrode layer 11, a solid electrolyte layer 13, and a negative electrode layer 12. As shown in FIG. 2, as one embodiment of the present invention, the all-solid battery stack 10 is formed in a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and is configured by a stack including a plurality of flat layers having a rectangular plane. As shown in FIG. 3, as another embodiment of the present invention, the all-solid-state battery stack 10 is formed in a cylindrical shape and is formed of a stack made of a plurality of disk-shaped layers. Each of the positive electrode layer 11 and the negative electrode layer 12 includes an electrode active material, or includes a solid electrolyte and an electrode active material, and the solid electrolyte layer 13 includes a solid electrolyte. At least one of the positive electrode layer 11 or the negative electrode layer 12 includes a conductive agent including a carbon material.
上記のように構成された全固体電池積層体10では、正極層11または負極層12の少なくとも一方と固体電解質層13とが焼成によって接合されている。正極層11または負極層12の少なくとも一方の出発材料に含まれる炭素材料の含有量が1質量%以上25質量%未満である。
In the all-solid battery stack 10 configured as described above, at least one of the positive electrode layer 11 or the negative electrode layer 12 and the solid electrolyte layer 13 are joined by baking. The content of the carbon material contained in at least one starting material of the positive electrode layer 11 or the negative electrode layer 12 is 1% by mass or more and less than 25% by mass.
このように正極層11または負極層12の少なくとも一方の出発材料に含まれる炭素材料の含有量が1質量%以上25質量%未満であるので、電極層(正極層11または負極層12)と固体電解質層13とを一体焼成によって接合しても、焼結性が良好で、十分な積層体の強度を得ることができるとともに、正極層11内または負極層12内に電子伝導性を付与することができ、その結果、良好な充放電特性を得ることができる。炭素材料の含有量が1質量%未満の場合には、電極層(正極層11または負極層12)内の電子伝導性が十分に得られず、充放電特性が低下する。炭素材料の含有量が25質量%以上の場合には、焼成時に電極活物質と固体電解質の焼結が不十分になり、全固体電池積層体10の強度が弱くなり、全固体電池積層体10が割れやすくなる。
Thus, since the content of the carbon material contained in at least one starting material of the positive electrode layer 11 or the negative electrode layer 12 is 1% by mass or more and less than 25% by mass, the electrode layer (positive electrode layer 11 or negative electrode layer 12) and solid Even when the electrolyte layer 13 is joined by integral firing, the sinterability is good, sufficient strength of the laminate can be obtained, and electron conductivity is imparted in the positive electrode layer 11 or the negative electrode layer 12. As a result, good charge / discharge characteristics can be obtained. When the content of the carbon material is less than 1% by mass, sufficient electron conductivity in the electrode layer (positive electrode layer 11 or negative electrode layer 12) cannot be obtained, and charge / discharge characteristics are deteriorated. When the content of the carbon material is 25% by mass or more, the electrode active material and the solid electrolyte are not sufficiently sintered at the time of firing, and the strength of the all-solid battery stack 10 is weakened. Becomes easy to break.
炭素材料の含有量が1質量%以上25質量%未満であれば、電極層(正極層11または負極層12)内の電子伝導性が得られるが、好ましくは炭素材料の含有量が5質量%以上20質量%以下である。この場合、電極活物質の利用率を向上させ、電極層の密度が高くなり、エネルギー体積密度を高めることができる。また、さらに好ましくは炭素材料の含有量が10質量%以上20質量%以下である。この場合、上記の効果をさらに向上させることができる。
If the content of the carbon material is 1% by mass or more and less than 25% by mass, the electron conductivity in the electrode layer (positive electrode layer 11 or negative electrode layer 12) can be obtained, but the content of the carbon material is preferably 5% by mass. It is 20 mass% or less. In this case, the utilization factor of the electrode active material can be improved, the density of the electrode layer can be increased, and the energy volume density can be increased. More preferably, the carbon material content is 10% by mass or more and 20% by mass or less. In this case, the above effect can be further improved.
