Abstract

The invention discloses a carbon nano tube-containing sulfur-based composite cathode material and a preparation method thereof. The sulfur-based composite cathode material is a ternary composite material AxByCz, wherein A is a dehydrocyclization product of an acrylonitrile-itaconic acid copolymer; B is elemental sulfur; C is a carbon nano tube; x is more than or equal to 30 weight percent and less than or equal to 60 weight percent; y is more than or equal to 30 weight percent and less than or equal to 60 weight percent; and z is more than or equal to 1 weight percent and less than or equal to 20 weight percent. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: in-situ polymerizing an acrylonitrile-itaconic acid monomer on the surface of the multi-wall carbon nano tube, and performing thermal treatment on both of the acrylonitrile-itaconic acid copolymer and the elemental sulfur, so that the sulfur is uniformly dispersed in a substrate formed by the dehydrocyclization of the acrylonitrile-itaconic acid copolymer. The carbon nano tube-containing sulfur-based composite cathode material and a lithium cathode form a secondary lithium-sulfur battery which is charged and discharged at the room temperature. The carbon nano tube-containing sulfur-based composite cathode material has the reversible specific capacity of 697 mAh / g and high cyclical stability.
