Description

Preparation method of lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode
Technical Field
The invention relates to a preparation method of a lithium-sulfur battery anode, belonging to the technical field of lithium-sulfur batteries.
Background
A lithium-sulfur battery is a lithium secondary battery that employs sulfur as a positive electrode active material. The theoretical specific mass capacity of sulfur is 1675mAh/g, and the theoretical specific mass capacity of lithium-sulfur battery is 2600 Wh/kg. In addition, sulfur is inexpensive and environmentally friendly, which makes lithium-sulfur batteries promising.
Lithium sulfur batteryFirst, sulfur has poor conductivity, and elemental sulfur has a conductivity of 5 × 10 at 25 ℃-30S/cm, sulfur is an electronic insulator, and it is difficult to perform an electrochemical reaction without sulfur in contact with a conductive agent. Secondly, lithium polysulphide, an intermediate discharge product of sulphur in sulphur electrodes, is easily dissolved in the electrolyte, which results in loss of active material and corrosion of the lithium electrode. And thirdly, lithium polysulfide dissolved in the electrolyte generates lithium disulfide and lithium sulfide at the end of discharge, the lithium disulfide and the lithium sulfide are deposited on the surface of the sulfur electrode, and in the cyclic charge-discharge process, the active substances are easily aggregated due to repeated dissolution and deposition of the active substances, the electrochemical reaction activity of the active substances is reduced, and the cyclic discharge specific capacity of the lithium-sulfur battery is reduced.
A commonly used method for improving the performance of a lithium-sulfur battery is to form a composite material by using an adsorbent and sulfur, and to adsorb sulfur and lithium polysulfide on the surface of a sulfur electrode, thereby preventing an active material from being dissolved in an electrolyte. However, such adsorption has no significant effect on a sulfur electrode having a high sulfur content, and the positive electrode active material is in direct contact with the electrolyte, and part of lithium polysulfide is dissolved in the electrolyte and lost.
In order to prevent lithium polysulfide from dissolving in the electrolyte, it is necessary to isolate the positive electrode active material from the electrolyte, and lithium polysulfide is confined to the positive electrode.
Publication No. CN110649222A discloses a method for preparing a positive electrode of a lithium-sulfur battery, which includes the preparation of a sulfur-conductive agent composite, the preparation of a sulfur electrode, and the preparation of a conductive layer-sulfur electrode.
