Positive electrode active material sulfur and discharge product Li of battery 2 S is an insulating material, is difficult to discharge when being used independently, and needs to be added with a conductive agent to discharge; sulfur undergoes higher polysulfide, lower polysulfide and eventually goes to Li during charge and discharge 2 S, wherein high-order polysulfide is easily dissolved in electrolyte, and migrates to and from a negative electrode through a diaphragm, so that a shuttle effect is caused by migration back and forth, and the electrochemical performance of a lithium-sulfur battery is seriously influenced; sulfur and Li 2 The volume expansion caused by the density difference of S damages the electrode structure; lithium dendrites grow during dissolution/deposition of the lithium anode, reducing battery capacity and coulombic efficiency. The problems can cause irreversible capacity loss of the battery, and the rate performance is reduced, so that the practical application of the lithium-sulfur battery is seriously hindered.
The conductive intermediate layer is added between the positive electrode and the diaphragm of the lithium-sulfur battery, so that the shuttle effect of the lithium-sulfur battery can be effectively inhibited, the utilization of polysulfide is promoted, and the cycling stability of the lithium-sulfur battery is improved.

However, the membrane preparation process of the patent needs to adopt complicated steps to prepare the folded MXene, and involves multi-step high-temperature hydrothermal reaction and high-temperature sintering steps, so that the preparation cost is high.
Therefore, how to provide a method which has simple preparation process, low cost, avoids the self-stacking phenomenon of MXene and improves Li + The mobility and the capacity fading of the lithium sulfur battery can be reduced by inhibiting polysulfide shuttling of the lithium sulfur battery, so that the problem to be solved is urgent.

In Table 1, the amounts of the modifying solutions were 25.12mL.
Table 1 test parameters of examples, comparative separator and corresponding lithium sulfur battery
Fig. 1 (a) is a surface Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) image of the LDH/MXene-1 composite membrane prepared in example 1, which is a two-dimensional sheet structure, and the two are interpenetrated after being compounded, so that the structure is compact, and it can be seen that LDHs are uniformly dispersed on the surface of MXene, and meanwhile, due to some stacking phenomenon generated after membrane drawing, a wrinkled sheet structure can be observed. FIG. 1 (b-c) are surface SEM images of LDH/MXene-2 (comparative example 2) and LDH/MXene-0.5 (comparative example 1) separators, respectively, and a significant lamellar structure was observed at higher LDH content. Meanwhile, three groups of membranes with different proportions are observed in cross section, and fig. 1 (d-f) are respectively pictures of the cross sections of the membranes of the example 1, the comparative example 2 and the comparative example 1, a remarkable two-dimensional interweaved composite structure can be observed, the cross section thickness of the LDH/MXene-1 (example 1) composite membrane is 1164nm, and the two-dimensional-two-dimensional network composite structure with loose holes is proved that the introduction of the two-dimensional metal compound LDHs enlarges the lamellar spacing of the MXene. The LDH/MXene-2 (comparative example 2) composite membrane has a thickness of 1150nm, which is also a loose porous two-dimensional network composite structure, but the pores between the sheets are obviously smaller than that of the LDH/MXene-1 composite membrane; the porosity of LDH/MXene-0.5 (comparative example 1) was the worst and the cross-sectional thickness was only 779nm. The two-dimensional interweaved composite structure can block the migration of polysulfide to the negative electrode through physical action, inhibit the shuttle effect, and simultaneously facilitate the wetting of electrolyte and improve the ionic conductivity.
As shown in the EDS energy spectrum of FIG. 1 (g-h), four elements C, ti, co, ni are uniformly distributed on the surface of the LDH/MXene diaphragm. Wherein C, ti is derived from MXene, co and Ni are derived from NiCo-LDH, which shows that the MXene and the LDH are well dispersed in the compounding process.
FIG. 2 (a) is a graph of 100 cycles at 0.1C for a sulfur electrode and three different ratio separators. The pure sulfur electrode had a specific discharge capacity of only 729.1mAh/g at 0.1C, and a capacity fade of 343.7mAh/g after 100 cycles. The electrode using LDH/MXene-0.5 had an initial specific capacity of 848.7mAh/g at 0.1C and a capacity of 564.6mAh/g after 100 cycles. MXenes act to enhance conductivity and physical adsorption, but higher levels of MXenes tend to self-stack, affecting cell discharge. The LDH/MXene-2 had an initial specific capacity of 866.9mAh/g at 0.1C and a capacity of 384.9mAh/g after 100 cycles. When the content of LDHs is high, the MXene is easily coated by the LDHs so as to reduce the conductivity, and the insufficient content of the MXene can lead to insufficient adsorption capacity to polysulfide and has limited performance improvement. It can be seen that the cells using LDH/MXene-1 separator exhibited an optimal initial specific discharge capacity at 0.1C of 1137.6mAh/g at 0.1C and a capacity of 622.6mAh/g after 100 cycles, significantly superior to pure sulfur electrodes and electrodes with other ratios of separators. FIG. 2 (b) is the rate capability of an LDH/MXene-1 separator assembled cell, the specific capacity of the electrode at 0.2C was 806.1mAh/g, and at a rate of 1C, the specific capacity remained at 481.9mAh/g, indicating that the separator improved the discharge performance of the cell.
