The invention discloses a durable overcharge lithium ion electrolyte with excellent anti-overcharge characteristic and a lithium battery using the same. Said durable overcharge lithium ion electrolyte contains an additive shown as right structure formulation, and weight rate of the additive in the lithium ion electrolyte is 0.01%-33.6%; in right structure formulation, X, Y, Z come from alkyl, alkoxy, aryl group, hydroxy, carboxyl, aether-oxyl or halogen with carbon atom between 0-12. The lithium ion battery can be prepared by using the durable overcharge lithium ion electrolyte. The additive added to the lithium ion electrolyte can increase durable overcharge property of the electrolyte efficiently, increase charge/discharge cycle efficiency, hardly effects normal property of the lithium ion battery and perfectly satisfy application need.
