摘要 |
The present invention provides a lithium ion battery which is protected from deterioration in performance due to oxidation decomposition of the nonaqueous electrolyte solution and excels in cycle life. The lithium ion battery has a cathode including a cathode active material exhibiting a potential of 4.5 V or more with reference to lithium metal; an anode; and a nonaqueous electrolyte solution containing a nonaqueous solvent and at least one lithium salt dissolved in the nonaqueous solvent. The nonaqueous solvent mainly contains a cyclic carbonate and a chain carbonate. The nonaqueous electrolyte solution contains boron ethoxide.
