In a lithium secondary battery, an overcharge inhibitor is used which includes polymerizable compounds or a polymer, or both as an active component, the polymerizable compounds including a first polymerizable compound having an aromatic functional group and a polymerizable functional group, and a second polymerizable compound having a halogen-containing functional group and a polymerizable functional group, and the polymer including a polymer having the halogen-containing functional group, the aromatic functional group, and residues of the polymerizable functional groups. The present invention allows the lithium secondary battery to form a radical-trapping polymer layer on the cathode upon overcharge. |
