Abstract
Provided is a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery with excellent low-temperature performance. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery disclosed herein includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator interposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and a nonaqueous electrolytic solution. The positive electrode includes a positive electrode active material layer. The positive electrode active material layer includes, as a positive electrode active material, a lithium transition metal composite oxide including at least lithium, nickel, manganese, cobalt, and tungsten. The nonaqueous electrolytic solution includes lithium fluorosulfonate and LiPF. The concentration of LiPFin the nonaqueous electrolytic solution is 1.11 mol/L or more. The viscosity of the nonaqueous electrolytic solution at 25° C. is 3.1 cP or more. The separator includes a resin layer and an inorganic layer formed on a surface of the resin layer that faces the positive electrode. Where a porosity of the inorganic layer is denoted by α, a porosity of the resin layer is denoted by β, and a porosity of the positive electrode active material layer is denoted by γ, relationships of 0.6≤(β/α)≤0.9 and 0.6≤(γ/α)≤0.9 are fulfilled.
