Description

A kind of preparation method of lithium-sulphur cell positive electrode
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of lithium-sulphur cell positive electrode, belong to field of electrochemical batteries.
Background technology
Lithium-sulfur cell is a kind of secondary cell that utilizes lithium and sulphur generation chemical reaction, its negative pole adopts metal lithium sheet, sulphurous materials just very, and negative pole produces lithium ion during discharge, sulphur in the positive pole and lithium ion reaction generate sulfide, reverse the carrying out of both positive and negative polarity reaction during charging.The Theoretical Mass specific capacity of elemental sulfur is 1675mAh/g, and this will be higher than the theoretical specific discharge capacity (LiCoO of the metal oxide of common lithium ion cell positive employing 2, LiNiO 2And LiMn 2O 4Theoretical specific discharge capacity be respectively 274mAh/g, 274mAh/g and 148mAh/g), in addition, elemental sulfur is cheap, and is environmentally friendly, this makes lithium-sulfur cell in the field of batteries of small-sized electronic product broad prospect of application be arranged.
Because elemental sulfur is that (conductivity is 5 * 10 25 ℃ the time for electronics and ion insulator -30Scm -1), anodal common preparation method is that blade coating made positive pole after sulphur, acetylene black (conductive agent) and binding agent (as Kynoar PVDF) evenly were mixed and made into slurry after the drying on metal forming (collector).Because positive pole is to rely on the intergranular contact conduction of acetylene black, the Li that anodal reaction generates 2S 2And Li 2Insulants such as S can cause the conduction approach to destroy, and cause anodal conductivity to descend; Simultaneously, the binding agent that contains in the positive pole is mainly high molecular polymer, their poorly conductive, and this has reduced anodal conductivity again, causes the utilance of sulphur and positive discharge specific capacity not high.In addition, the polysulfide that anodal reaction generates during discharge can irreversibly be dissolved in electrolyte and lose, and this causes anodal circulation discharge stability not high.
The researcher attempts several different methods and promotes anodal conductivity and strengthen anodal adsorptivity to polysulfide, people's [electrochemistry such as king's Chong, 2010,16 (2): 168-171] attempt adding the porous carbon gel and improve cathode performance, after they make the carbon gel, after the heating of itself and sulphur mixed, mix with conductive agent and adhesive again, after mixture is coated on the aluminium foil, promptly make positive pole after the drying.The adding of porous carbon gel has strengthened anodal adsorptivity to polysulfide, promoted anodal circulation discharge stability, but, the carbon gel does not have satisfactory electrical conductivity owing to have loose structure, make it not high, and the adhesive of poorly conductive can reduce anodal conductivity in the positive pole to the lifting degree of cathode performance.People such as Wu Feng [novel charcoal material, 2010,25 (6): 421-425] attempt in positive pole, adding multiple-wall carbon nanotube with satisfactory electrical conductivity, after they mix the heating of CNT (carbon nano-tube) and sulphur, mix with acetylene black and Kynoar PVDF again, after mixture is coated on the aluminium foil, make positive pole behind 60 ℃ of vacuumize 24h.CNT (carbon nano-tube) forms conductive network in positive pole, promoted anodal conductivity, and its surface hinders it by the suction-operated to polysulfide and be dissolved in electrolyte, has promoted anodal circulation discharge stability.But CNT (carbon nano-tube) is reunited easily owing to its bigger serface, causes it to be difficult to be dispersed in the positive pole, and this is unfavorable for making up the favorable conductive structure; And contain the Kynoar PVDF of poorly conductive in the positive pole, it can reduce anodal conductivity.Therefore, make up the use that evenly distributes and conduct electricity good structure and avoid binding agent and can big degree improve cathode performance.
