Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of material synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for preparing lithium sulfide by using lithium sulfate.

Description

Method for preparing lithium sulfide by using lithium sulfate
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of material synthesis, and particularly relates to a method for preparing lithium sulfide by using lithium sulfate.
Background
As a promising energy storage system, the lithium-sulfur battery is highly valued by researchers, and elemental sulfur in the conventional lithium-sulfur battery cathode material is being replaced by a new cathode material due to the defects of high volume effect, low conductivity and the like. The lithium sulfide anode has ideal pre-lithiation and high theoretical specific capacity (1166mA h g)-1) And is expected to become a new generation of lithium-sulfur battery anode material. Because lithium sulfide is in a fully lithiated state (unlike elemental sulfur), non-lithium metal negative electrode materials (e.g., silicon or tin) can be collocated, thereby circumventing the formation of metallic lithium dendrites and other safety issues. In addition to its compatibility with non-lithium metal cathodes, the use of lithium sulfide as the cathode material has the following advantages: (1) lithium sulfide is in a fully expanded state of sulfur, unlike sulfur which expands 80% in volume during lithiation. Thus, lithium sulfideDuring the initial delithiation process shrinks to create space to accommodate the volume expansion during subsequent lithiation. This not only helps to mitigate structural damage to the entire electrode, but also eliminates the need to intentionally create internal void spaces, thereby greatly simplifying the synthesis process. (2) Lithium sulfide (938 ℃) has a higher melting point than sulfur (115 ℃). Generally, the carbonization process occurs in a high temperature atmosphere, which makes the synthesis of the lithium sulfur-carbon composite material easier to handle.
However, the existing commercial lithium sulfide generally has the defects of high price, difficulty in ensuring purity and the like, which limits the development speed of scientific research institutions for the lithium-sulfur battery industry, so that the novel synthesis and preparation method capable of efficiently synthesizing the lithium sulfide with purity meeting the requirements of the scientific research institutions is of great significance.
