Abstract: The lithium secondary battery of the present invention is a lithium secondary battery including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator provided between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and a non-aqueous electrolyte containing a lithium salt, wherein the non-aqueous electrolyte includes, as a solvent, an ionic liquid containing a bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide anion as an anion component; and the separator is a nonwoven fabric comprising at least one member selected from an organic fiber and a glass fiber and has a porosity of 70% or more.

Abstract: A lithium ion secondary battery capable of charging in 15 minutes or less has a cathode with a composite layer on a surface of a collector having an active material and a conducting agent, an anode with an active material, an insulator between the cathode and anode, and an electrolyte with lithium ions. The cathode active material is represented by LixMPO4, where M is a metal atom and 0<x<2 and the conducting agent contains particles between 3 ?m and 12 ?m in size and in an amount of 1% or more by weight.
