Description

Lithium-sulfur semi-flow battery
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of electrochemical energy, in particular to a lithium-sulfur semi-flow battery with high energy density, high power density and long cycle life.
Background
In recent decades, the use of solar energy, tidal energy, and wind energy has increased, and electric vehicles with low carbon dioxide emissions have been spreading. Therefore, in order to effectively utilize renewable energy, the development of high-performance, safe, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly energy conversion and storage systems is imperative. Preferred among these energy storage systems are lithium ion batteries and supercapacitors. Lithium ion batteries are common electrochemical devices for storing electrical energy. However, despite their commercial success, lithium ion batteries have failed to meet the high power demands required for applications such as power tools, electric vehicles, and efficient storage of renewable energy. In contrast, supercapacitors, in addition to providing higher energy densities than conventional dielectric capacitors, also show promise for high power systems because they can instantaneously provide higher power densities than batteries. However, the energy density of supercapacitors is still insufficient for new applications requiring high energy and high power density.
to overcome these disadvantages, research on lithium ion batteries has focused on electrode material improvements, for example, the use of silicon negative electrodes and lithium rich positive electrodes. However, these materials themselves suffer from several drawbacks, including low first-pass coulombic efficiency, unsatisfactory rate performance, poor cycle life, poor thermal characteristics, and significant voltage decay. In fact, alternative battery systems, such as lithium air batteries, lithium sulfur batteries, and sodium/magnesium ion batteries, have proven to be superior to lithium ion batteries in terms of energy/power density, safety, and cost. However, these systems also have their own drawbacks. For example, in the process of charging and discharging the lithium-sulfur battery, the utilization rate of active substances of the battery is reduced and the cycle life of the battery is shortened due to the dissolution and shuttling of intermediates of the lithium-sulfur battery; meanwhile, the rate performance of the battery is poor due to poor conductivity of active substances, namely sulfur and lithium sulfide, and in order to improve the conductivity, a large amount of conductive additives are required to be added, so that the content of the active substances is reduced, the volume energy density of the battery is low, and the high energy density of the lithium-sulfur battery is difficult to exert. Therefore, in order to solve these problems, a new class of lithium-sulfur flow battery systems has recently been proposed. The system includes the use of a working electrode having electrocatalytic activity, a lithium polysulfide catholyte, a separator, and a negative region including a lithium metal negative electrode and a conventional lithium sulfur electrolyte. Although the lithium-sulfur semi-flow battery has high energy density and power density, the problems of catalytic activity and stability of the working electrode and selectivity of the separator must be solved to realize commercial application thereof.
