Disclosed is a continuous rapid solidification apparatus, which includes a cooling roll configured to cool a molten metal supplied to an outer circumference surface thereof; a crucible configured to supply the cooling roll with the molten metal; and two or more molten metal supplies configured to melt raw material metal and alternately supply the crucible with the molten metal.

Continuous rapid-cooling solidification apparatus

Disclosed is a continuous rapid solidification apparatus, which has a cooling roll configured to cool a molten metal supplied to an outer circumference surface thereof; a crucible configured to supply the cooling roll with the molten metal; a molten metal supply configured to melt a raw material metal and supply the crucible with the molten metal; a first chamber configured to form a sealed space where the molten metal supplied from the crucible is cooled by the cooling roll; and a second chamber configured to be formed of a space separated from the first chamber and to form a sealed space where the molten metal is supplied to the crucible by the molten metal supply.

Rapid-cooling solidification apparatus with independently controllable chamber

Disclosed is a negative active material having a reduced volume change during charge/discharge. A fine crystalline region exists on a matrix of an alloy, and lithium is easily dispersed due to the fine crystalline region. In the negative active material, a ratio of the fine crystalline region is represented by an amorphization degree, and is optimized in designing a battery through a measurement of an expansion rate after 50 cycles. The negative active material is used for a secondary battery and includes an alloy formed by a chemical formula below: (a ratio of Ti to Fe is 1:1 and a ratio of Si:Ti or Si:Fe has a range of 5:1 to 9:1.)Si&#x2014;TiFeAlwhere x, y, z, and u are at %, x: 1&#x2212;(y+z+u), y: 0.09 to 0.14, z: 0.09 to 0.14, and u: larger than 0.01 and less than 0.2.

Negative active material for secondary battery and secondary battery using the same

The present disclosure is to provide a negative electrode for a lithium secondary battery having high negative electrode efficiency and excellent capacity retention, and a lithium secondary battery including the negative electrode. In one aspect, there is provided a negative electrode for a lithium secondary battery, wherein the electrode contains 3 to 9% by weight of a silicon-based negative-electrode active material having a following composition formula (1); and 87.5 to 95.5% by weight of a graphite-based negative-electrode active material:SiTiFeAl&#x2003;&#x2003;(1)
