Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of battery electrode material preparation, in particular to a material for a lithium-sulfur battery anode.
Background
With the increase of energy demand and the continuous development of the electronic market and the electric vehicle market, the lithium ion battery is favored by people due to the advantages of safety, environmental protection, higher specific energy, good electrochemical performance and the like. As such, a large number of lithium ion batteries are produced and consumed. In order to protect the environment, save resources and recycle resources, it is necessary to develop a waste lithium ion battery recycling technology. And the lithium ion anode ternary material contains various valuable metal elements and has a high recovery value. However, the traditional wet recovery process is relatively expensive, and how to efficiently recover valuable elements or treat and recycle wastes at low cost has led to extensive research.
What occurs in the anode is intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions in the graphite anode unlike in the conventional lithium ion battery; the charge and discharge process of the lithium metal battery anode is the dissolution and deposition process of lithium metal; the basic reaction formula is as follows: charging of Li++ e ═ Li; discharge Li-e ═ Li+. Lithium-sulfur batteries, which are typical lithium metal batteries, have attracted extensive research interest due to their outstanding advantages of high energy density and low cost, but are produced byLithium sulfur batteries still face challenges such as low sulfur utilization, short cycle life and limited power density due to poor conductivity of sulfur and lithium sulfide, shuttling effect of lithium polysulfide, and large volume change of active species during slow conversion kinetics and cycling. Through continuous efforts, people develop strategies such as physical confinement, chemical adsorption of lithium polysulfide and the like, so that shuttle effect, polarization effect and volume effect existing in the lithium-sulfur battery are inhibited to a certain extent, and the utilization rate, rate capability and cycling stability of sulfur are improved. However, the industrialization process of the lithium-sulfur battery is faced with the severe problems of high sulfur-carrying capacity and low liquid-sulfur ratio. Accelerating polysulfide conversion under severe conditions with a suitable catalyst is a viable approach.
