Nonaqueous electrolyte composition for improving overcharge safety and lithium battery using the same

摘要

Provided are a nonaqueous electrolyte for improving battery safety by suppressing risks associated with the battery becoming overcharged as a result of certain uncontrolled conditions and a lithium battery with improved overcharge safety. The nonaqueous electrolyte includes an organic solvent, a lithium salt, and a biphenylene oxide based compound.
