Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium sulfur batteries, and particularly relates to a cobaltosic oxide-porous carbon sheet composite material, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in the lithium sulfur batteries, and particularly the cobaltosic oxide-porous carbon sheet composite material can be used as a diaphragm material or a positive electrode material to be applied to the lithium sulfur batteries.
Background
The lithium-sulfur battery is one of potential candidate batteries of the next generation electrochemical energy storage technology because of the advantages of high theoretical energy density, high theoretical capacity and the like. However, factors such as poor cycling stability, low sulfur utilization, low coulombic efficiency, and volume expansion during discharge, which are caused by slow redox kinetics and shuttle effects of polysulfides during cycling, limit the commercialization development of lithium sulfur batteries. For the improvement of the performance of lithium sulfur batteries, some carbon materials including porous carbon, graphene, carbon nanotubes and hybrids thereof were originally applied to physically encapsulate sulfur species and increase their conductivity. However, only weak physical adsorption exists between the nonpolar carbon material and the polar polysulfide, which is far insufficient to prevent the diffusion of polysulfide, and the shuttle effect is completely solved. While doping of heteroatoms (e.g., nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur) may provide weaker chemisorption, the interactions are not yet strong enough. In addition, some non-conductive polar inorganic substances (e.g., alumina, silica, titania) can effectively adsorb polysulfides by strong chemical interactions with polysulfides. However, recycling of polysulfides is disadvantageous because of the poor conductivity of these inorganic materials. Thus, some catalytic metals (e.g., nickel, platinum, and cobalt) and conductive compounds (e.g., ferroferric oxide, cobalt disulfide, molybdenum disulfide) that are capable of catalyzing the conversion of polysulfides are of great interest. However, the conductivity of such catalytic materials is intermediate between that of carbon materials and non-conductive polar inorganic materials, and the application of the above classes of single materials is not sufficient to completely solve the problems of poor cycle performance, low coulombic efficiency, low sulfur utilization, and the like of lithium sulfur batteries. In addition, many researches are currently focused on synthesizing various forms of carbon materials, polar materials or catalytic materials through complicated processes and expensive raw materials, thereby reducing the dissolution of polysulfides and improving the conductivity of sulfur species. In the prior art, the preparation method of the material often involves multi-step drying, washing, calcining and other treatments, wherein the calcining temperature is generally higher than 400 ℃, the energy consumption is high, and the argon-hydrogen/nitrogen-hydrogen mixed gas is also required to be matched, so that the higher cost is caused. In addition, expensive raw materials (such as cetyl trimethylammonium bromide, metal organic framework materials, etc.) are often chosen to control the formation of materials with different morphologies. These complex steps and expensive raw materials are extremely disadvantageous for industrial production and commercialization of lithium sulfur batteries. Therefore, how to combine the advantages of the above materials and to use raw materials with simpler process and lower cost to improve the performance and industrial application of lithium-sulfur batteries remains a big problem.
