Wherein the charge-discharge cut-off voltage range is 1.8-2.8V.
Third, performance test
1. Performance test of intermediate layer material co-doped with metallic tin and carbon nano tube
Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) tests were performed on the intermediate layer material co-doped with metallic tin and carbon nanotubes prepared in example 1, and the test results are shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, where fig. 1 is a low-magnification scanning electron microscope image and fig. 2 is a high-magnification scanning electron microscope image. It can be seen that the intermediate layer material co-doped with the metal tin and the carbon nanotubes has an obvious cross-linked spider-web structure, and the carbon nanofibers are overlapped with each other to form a three-dimensional conductive framework.
The Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) and High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope (HRTEM) tests were performed on the intermediate layer material co-doped with metallic tin and carbon nanotubes prepared in example 1, and the results are shown in fig. 3 and 4, respectively, for further characterizing the surface state of the intermediate layer. The figure shows that the metal tin is uniformly distributed on the nano-fiber, and the winding of multi-wall carbon nano-tubes on the surface of the fiber can be obviously observed.
When the metallic tin and carbon nanotube co-doped interlayer material prepared in example 1 was subjected to X-ray diffraction, as shown in fig. 5, characteristic peaks (PDF #04-0673) of tin (Sn) appeared on an X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, and no other distinct peaks appeared, indicating that metallic tin was successfully generated in the interlayer and was substantially free of impurities.
The nitrogen adsorption and desorption curve test and the pore size distribution test were performed on the intermediate layer material co-doped with metallic tin and carbon nanotubes prepared in example 1, and the test results are shown in fig. 6. As can be seen from the nitrogen sorption and desorption curves of fig. 6, the rapid increase in the low pressure region indicates the presence of micropores, while the presence of a significant hysteresis loop in the high and high pressure regions indicates the presence of mesoporous and macroporous structures. Furthermore, as can be seen from the pore size distribution curve of FIG. 6, the particle size distribution and the formation of many large pores are mainly attributed to the high-temperature calcination, and the relative BET surface area of the intermediate layer is 321.2m2/g。
Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was performed on the metallic tin and carbon nanotube co-doped interlayer material prepared in example 1, and the test results are shown in fig. 7.
Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) tests were performed on the metallic tin and carbon nanotube co-doped interlayer material prepared in example 2, and the test results are shown in fig. 8. As can be seen from fig. 8, the intermediate layer material co-doped with metallic tin and carbon nanotubes has a significant cross-linked structure in a spider-web shape, and the carbon nanofibers are overlapped with each other to form a three-dimensional conductive skeleton.
Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) tests were performed on the metallic tin and carbon nanotube co-doped interlayer material prepared in example 3, and the test results are shown in fig. 9. As can be seen from fig. 9, the intermediate layer material co-doped with metal tin and carbon nanotubes has a significant cross-linked structure in a spider-web shape, and the carbon nanofibers are overlapped with each other to form a three-dimensional conductive skeleton.
The material of the carbon nanotube-doped interlayer prepared in comparative example 1 was physically characterized, and the result was the same as that of metallic tin in example 1Similar to the result of the carbon nano tube co-doped intermediate layer material, the carbon nano tube co-doped intermediate layer material has an obvious cobweb-shaped cross-linking structure, and carbon nano fibers are overlapped to form a three-dimensional structure and have a rich pore structure. But the relative surface area of the carbon nanotube-doped interlayer material was 371.2m2The concentration is 50m higher than that of the intermediate layer material co-doped with the metallic tin and the carbon nano tube2In the vicinity of/g, this is probably due to the fact that the surface-generated metallic tin particles block part of the pores, thereby reducing the specific surface area. Under the same conditions, the specific surface area is certainly more favorable to be greatly increased, but in the application, the specific surface of the comparative example 1 is increased, but the increase range is smaller, and when the specific surface is more or less than the increase range, whether the adsorption and the catalytic capability of the metal tin particles are sufficient or not is more important, and of course, the adsorption effect is too strong due to too many metal tin particles, so that the sulfide is adsorbed too much, the lithium ion channel is blocked, and the performance is influenced.
2. Performance testing of lithium-sulfur batteries
The lithium sulfur batteries prepared in examples 1 to 3 and comparative examples 1 to 2 were numbered 1 to 5, respectively.
The rate performance curve of the No. 1 battery is shown in FIG. 10, and the battery shows good discharge capacity under all current densities of 0.1-2C, and the capacities of the battery are 1293.5, 1159.0, 1080.2, 984.7 and 855.2mAh/g respectively. When the current density was restored to 0.1C, the lithium-sulfur battery still had a specific discharge capacity of 1129.2 mAh/g. The electrostatic spinning interlayer material codoped by the metal tin and the carbon nano tube can provide good specific discharge capacity for the lithium-sulfur battery under different current densities when being applied to the lithium-sulfur battery, and has excellent rate performance.
The long cycle performance curve of the battery No. 1 under the high current density is shown in fig. 11, the initial discharge specific capacity under 1C is 1021.7mAh/g, even if the battery is cycled for 400 times, the reversible discharge specific capacity of the lithium-sulfur battery can still maintain 654.1mAh/g, the attenuation rate is as low as 0.088%, and the result shows that when the electrostatic spinning interlayer material codoped by metal tin and carbon nanotubes is applied to the lithium-sulfur battery, the battery still has excellent discharge capacity under the high current density.
The cyclic voltammogram of cell No. 1 is shown in fig. 12. As can be seen from fig. 12, the lithium-sulfur battery using the metal tin and carbon nanotube co-doped electrospinning material as the intermediate layer has good cycle stability and reversibility.
The batteries of nos. 1 to 5 were subjected to battery cycle performance tests, the test results are shown in fig. 13 to 17, and the results are summarized in table 1:
TABLE 1
As can be seen from table 1, the initial capacity of the No. 1-3 lithium-sulfur battery using the interlayer materials prepared in examples 1-3 was as high as 1100mAh/g or more at a current density of 0.2C, and the specific discharge capacity of 900mAh/g or more was still obtained even after 100 cycles, wherein the No. 1 battery had a specific discharge capacity of 1041.9mAh/g, and compared with the No. 4 and No. 5 batteries, the initial capacity at a current density of 0.2C was only 970mAh/g and 713.2mAh/g, and the capacity was attenuated to 857.3mAh/g and 501mAh/g after 100 cycles, and the capacity retention rate was low.
In conclusion, the electrostatic spinning material co-doped with metal tin and the carbon nano tube prepared by the invention has excellent electrochemical performance. In the invention, the electrospinning interlayer material is composed of carbon nano-fibers which are co-doped with metal tin particles and multi-walled carbon nano-tubes. When the sulfur content is as high as 72.6%, the material can have high initial specific discharge capacity of 1123.1mAh/g at 0.2C, the retention rate is 92.8% after 100 cycles, the material is hardly attenuated, the high initial specific discharge capacity of 1021.7mAh/g still can be displayed at the large current density of 1C, and the average attenuation rate of the capacity within 400 circles is as low as 0.088%, so that the material fully shows that the material of the intermediate layer can play a good role in inhibiting the shuttle-through effect, and the utilization rate of active substances is greatly improved. The excellent rate performance of the material also shows that the intermediate layer material co-doped with the metal tin and the carbon nano tube has good conductivity, so that the internal resistance of the electrode is reduced. In addition, their nearly overlapping cyclic voltammograms highlight the excellent cyclic stability of the lithium sulfur cell provided by the interlayer material.
