Abstract: A lithium-ion secondary battery capable of securing safety at a time of battery abnormality and restricting a drop in a high rate discharge property is provided. A lithium-ion secondary battery 1 has an electrode group 5 formed by winding a positive electrode plate 2 in which a positive electrode mixture including a positive electrode active material is formed at a collector and a negative electrode plate 3 in which a negative electrode mixture including a negative electrode active material is formed at a collector via a porous separator 4. A flame retardant is mixed to the positive electrode mixture of the positive electrode plate 2. The mode of pore diameters formed at the positive electrode mixture, which is measured by a mercury porosimetry, is set to a range of from 0.5 to 2.0 ?m. The moving path for lithium-ions and at the same time the moving path for electrons are secured at a charge/discharge time.

Abstract: Provided is a catalyst which can prevent a lowering in selectivity for a target product in a gas phase catalytic reaction and has an excellent frictional resistance. A catalyst which is a supported catalyst comprising an inert support that is coated with a catalyst powder, characterized in that the inert support is ring-shaped and has an outer periphery that is curved in the lengthwise direction of the support, and the catalyst is produced by granulation in a moisten environment. The above described catalyst is useful in the gas phase oxidation of propylene, isobutylene, tertiary-butyl alcohol or methyl tertiary-butyl ether to thereby produce an unsaturated aldehyde corresponding thereto, or in the gas phase oxidation of such an unsaturated aldehyde as described above to thereby produce an unsaturated carboxylic acid.
