Problems solved by technology

The dispersion state of the active material sulfur in the conductive agent skeleton also determines the mass transfer rate and electron conduction rate of the electrochemical reaction. If the active material is not uniformly dispersed, the utilization rate of the active material will be reduced, thereby affecting the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the battery.

[0040] Prepare nano-sulfur / graphene oxide composite material by chemical method, its process and steps are as follows:

[0041] Using sodium sulfide and ferric chloride as raw materials to prepare nano-sulfur / graphene oxide composite materials, specifically as follows: 1g sodium sulfide and 0.01g triton were dissolved in 100ml of deionized water respectively, in a clean three-necked flask Mix and stir the two for 1 hour. At 25°C, add 2 mL of concentrated HCl to it. After sodium sulfide and concentrated HCl react to generate hydrogen sulfide, slowly add 100 mL of 1 mol / L ferric chloride solution with a constant pressure dropping funnel, and seal it. In a three-neck flask, stir vigorously for 10 hours, so that ferric chloride can fully oxidize hydrogen sulfide to generate elemental sulfur; add 20 mg of graphene oxide and 10 mg of acetylene black in 50 mL of hydroalcoholic solution under vigorous stirring, cool to room temperature after 20 min, and centrifuge. After vacuum drying...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing a nano-sulfur / graphene oxide composite material with high specific capacity and belongs to the field of cross application of material synthesis and electrochemical power supplies. The nano-sulfur / graphene oxide composite material is applicable to an electrode material of a lithium sulfur secondary battery with the high specific capacity. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps of: synthesizing nano-sulfur particles by using a simple chemical method under the protection of a surfactant; and uniformly attracting graphene oxide and a carbon material to the surfaces of the nano-sulfur particles by interaction of the surfactant and the graphene oxide to form a core-shell type nano-sulfur / graphene oxide composite material. The graphene oxide and the carbon material coat a sulfur surface, so a sulfur electrode material is stable in structure, high in electric conductivity and high in cycle performance. Environmentally-harmful materials are not employed, and the method can be implemented at low temperature, and is low in energy consumption in the synthesis process and low in equipment requirement. The synthesized material is high in charging / discharging capacity, non-toxic and harmless to a human body, and sulfur is abundant in nature, so the material has a good industrial prospect and can be applied to large-scale industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention uses a chemical method to prepare nanoscale sulfur and a modified material coated with graphene oxide, and uses it as the positive electrode material of the lithium-sulfur battery to construct the positive electrode material of the lithium-sulfur battery with high specific capacity and good cycle performance. Background technique [0002] In recent years, batteries have played an increasingly important role in modern society, and higher requirements have been placed on the performance of batteries. Therefore, the preparation and electrochemical performance research of cathode materials for lithium-sulfur batteries with high energy density has become a hot project. The specific energy of traditional cathode materials is low, and the materials using elemental sulfur as the cathode have greater advantages in specific energy and specific power than other battery systems, so they have attracted widespread attention.
