The present invention relates to the technical field of aluminum-
sulfur batteries, and in particular to a
molten salt electrolyte and a preparation method thereof, a fast-chargeable aluminum-
sulfur battery and its application. The
molten salt electrolyte comprises a general formula A a AlX b A
molten salt; wherein A is selected from at least one of Ca, Mg, Li, Na, K, Rb and Cs; X includes at least two different
halogen elements; 0.1≤a≤1, 3.1≤b≤4. The present invention improves the disorder and
asymmetry of the molten salt
electrolyte by introducing at least two different types of
halogen elements, reduces the
bond breaking energy barrier of the aluminum-
halogen covalent bond, and realizes the fast reaction
kinetics of the molten salt electrolyte, thereby realizing the high capacity and
fast charging performance of the aluminum-
sulfur battery. In addition, the
melting point of the molten salt electrolyte is low.
