Abstract
A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention includes a positive electrode including an active material absorbing and desorbing lithium ions, a negative electrode including an active material absorbing and desorbing lithium ions, a separator interposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and a non-aqueous electrolyte. The separator includes a material containing a substituent group with electron-withdrawing property. The non-aqueous electrolyte includes a non-aqueous solvent and a solute dissolved therein, and the non-aqueous solvent includes at least one selected from the group consisting of a fluorine-containing aromatic solvent, a fluorine-containing cyclic carbonic acid ester, and a fluorine-containing cyclic carboxylic acid ester. The combination of the foregoing separator and the foregoing non-aqueous electrolyte makes it possible to suppress the deterioration in the rate performance of the battery even when the battery is stored under high voltage and high temperature.
