NOVELTY - A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery consists of electrode component provided with a positive electrode and a negative electrode (20) and a nonaqueous electrolyte, accommodated in the battery case. The negative electrode is equipped with a negative electrode electrical power collector (22), and a negative electrode compound material layer (24) containing negative electrode active material, formed on the surface of the electrical power collector. The negative electrode compound material layer contains an aromatic compound (34) and an oxalate complex compound (32).    USE - Nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery is used as driving power supply of vehicle (claimed). Uses include but are not limited to plug-in hybrid motor vehicle, hybrid vehicle, electric vehicle, personal computer and portable terminal.    ADVANTAGE - Since the solid interphase film is formed on the surface of negative electrode active material, the decomposition of nonaqueous electrolyte is suppressed. The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery has excellent battery performance (output characteristics).    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - A nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery consists of electrode component provided with a positive electrode and a negative electrode and a nonaqueous electrolyte, accommodated in the battery case. The negative electrode is equipped with a negative electrode electrical power collector, and a negative electrode compound material layer containing negative electrode active material, formed on the surface of the electrical power collector. The negative electrode compound material layer contains an aromatic compound and an oxalate complex compound on its surface. The distribution amount of aromatic compound and oxalate compound in the area close to the negative electrode compound material layer is relatively more. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for manufacture of nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery.
