Description

Lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material and preparation method thereof, lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode and lithium-sulfur battery
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of energy material preparation, in particular to a lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof, a lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode and a lithium-sulfur battery.
Background
With the development of economy and science and technology, the energy structure of human beings is continuously changing towards a clean and sustainable direction. At present, lithium ion batteries with high energy density, long cycle stability, and other characteristics have become the main power source of consumer electronics products, playing an important role. However, with the development of high specific energy mobile devices, lithium ion batteries have been difficult to meet the current market demand. Compared with the traditional lithium ion battery, the lithium-sulfur battery has the advantages of ultrahigh theoretical specific capacity (1675mAh/g), theoretical energy density (2600Wh/kg), abundant sulfur storage capacity, low price and the like, so the lithium-sulfur battery is considered to be one of novel energy storage systems with development potential, and can be applied to the fields of portable electronic products, power automobiles, large-scale energy storage and the like. However, lithium sulfur batteries still have many problems and challenges, such as elemental S reactant for the battery system 8 And the final reduction product Li 2 S 2 And Li 2 S has the defects of extremely low electronic and ionic conductivity, volume expansion and shrinkage of electrodes in the charging and discharging processes, shuttle effect of polysulfide and the like, and the defects cause low utilization rate of active substances of the lithium-sulfur battery and poor battery cycle stability, so that the development and application of the lithium-sulfur battery are restricted.
The addition of sulfur framework materials into the positive electrode of the lithium-sulfur battery can effectively improve the electrical conductivity of the electrode, inhibit the shuttle effect of polysulfide and catalyze sulfur conversion reaction, and a great deal of work is developed around the problem at present. The hollow material is used as one of main solving means, polysulfide can be effectively adsorbed on the surface of the hollow material, and the volume expansion effect of the battery can be inhibited by the hollow space inside the hollow material, so that the cycling stability of the battery is improved. However, the hollow material has a large amount of hollow structures which cannot store sulfur inside, which results in a large amount of wasted battery space, and the electrode thickness is too large under high sulfur loading, which results in too far electrodes and current collectors, limiting the transmission of ions and electrons on the electrodes. If the thickness is forcibly reduced by increasing the pressure, pore channels in the electrode are blocked, and the pore channels cannot be infiltrated by the electrolyte, so that the performance of the battery is influenced.
How to enable the lithium-sulfur battery added with the hollow-structure sulfur framework material to have higher specific capacity and cycling stability is a research hotspot in the field.
