The present invention relates to an electrolyte additive, an electrolyte including the electrolyte additive, and a secondary battery including the electrolyte. According to the present invention, by forming a stable film on the cathode and anode of various lithium secondary batteries including high-nickel, Si-anode, LFP, lithium-manganese-rich (LMR) batteries or cobalt-free batteries, side reactions may be prevented from occurring inside a battery, and charge/discharge resistance may be reduced, thereby improving charging efficiency and output.

Thus, long-term lifespan and high-temperature capacity retention may be excellent. In addition, by suppressing the increase in acidity of an electrolyte and inhibiting the elution of transition metal ions from a cathode by effectively scavenging hydrofluoric acid among side reaction products due to the instability of a high-nickel cathode, a secondary battery having excellent battery characteristics and lifespan may be provided.
