The present invention aims to provide and insulated wire having an insulation layer which is excellent in insulation properties and has a low dielectric constant. The insulated wire of the present invention includes a conductor (A) and an insulation layer (B) formed around the periphery of the conductor (A). The insulation layer (B) is formed from a resin composition containing an aromatic polyether ketone resin (I) and a fluororesin (II). The fluororesin (II) is a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and a perfluoroethylenic unsaturated compound represented by the following formula (1):CF&#x2550;CF&#x2014;Rf&#x2003;&#x2003;(1)wherein Rfrepresents &#x2014;CFor &#x2014;ORf, and Rfis a C1-C5 perfluoroalkyl group. The aromatic polyether ketone resin (I) and the fluororesin (II) satisfy a melt viscosity ratio (I)/(II) of 0.3 to 5.0.

The present invention aims to provide an electrochemical device excellent in high temperature storage characteristics and cycling characteristics at high voltages, and a nonaqueous electrolyte for the electrochemical device. The present invention relates to an electrochemical device including: a positive electrode; a negative electrode; and a nonaqueous electrolyte containing a nonaqueous solvent and an electrolyte salt, wherein the nonaqueous solvent contains a fluorinated linear carbonate represented by the formula (1):RfOCOOR&#x2003;&#x2003;(1)(wherein Rf represents a C1-4 fluorinated alkyl group and R represents a C1-4 alkyl group), and further contains following compounds of (I) to (III) in a total amount of not more than 5000 ppm relative to the fluorinated linear carbonate: (I) a compound represented by the formula (2)RfOH&#x2003;&#x2003;(2)(wherein Rf is defined as above); (II) a compound represented by the formula (3)ROH&#x2003;&#x2003;(3)(wherein R is defined as above); and (III) a compound represented by the formula (4)ROCOCl&#x2003;&#x2003;(4)(wherein R is defined as above).

Electrochemical device and nonaqueous electrolyte solution for electrochemical device

Provided is an electrolytic solution exhibiting excellent withstand voltage and satisfactory characteristics even at low and high temperatures. The invention is an electrolytic solution that includes a cyclic carbonate (I-1) represented by formula (I-1): (in the formula, R is an alkyl group having two or more carbon atoms, a fluorine-containing alkyl group having two or more carbon atoms, an alkoxy group or a fluorine-containing alkoxy group, in which an oxygen atom may be inserted between carbon atoms); a cyclic carbonate (I-2) different from the cyclic carbonate (I-1); and an electrolyte salt (II)).

Electrolytic solution

The present invention directs to a non-aqueous electrolyte solution, including (I) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of fluorinated linear sulfones and fluorinated linear sulfonic acid esters, and (II) an electrolyte salt. Such a non-aqueous electrolyte solution has high oxidation resistance, minimizes its decomposition even when hydrofluoric acid is produced. Also, the solution is less likely to cause, in the case of being used for a secondary cell, swelling of the cell and lowering of the battery performance.

Non-aqueous electrolyte solution

A thermoplastic resin composition having a high flame retardancy in a thin-wall molded product and a molded article thereof are provided. The thermoplastic resin composition comprises (A) a thermoplastic resin containing a repeating unit having an arylene group, an ether group, and a carbonyl group and (B) a thermoplastic fluorine-containing resin. The weight ratio of the thermoplastic resin (A) and the thermoplastic fluorine-containing resin (B) in the former/the latter is 80/20 to 99/1. The thermoplastic fluorine-containing resin (B) is dispersed in the form of a particle in the thermoplastic resin (A) to form a dispersed phase, and the dispersed phase has an average particle diameter of not more than 3 &#x3bc;m. The thermoplastic resin composition is suitable for forming a molded article having a thin-wall portion with a thickness of not more than 1.5 mm.
