Problems solved by technology

On the other hand, the polysulfide intermediates formed during charge and discharge are dissolved in an anionic organic solvent and permeate through the separator to reach the anode, where an electrically insulating precipitate (Li 2 S 2 and Li 2 S), reducing the conductivity of the lithium negative electrode, resulting in poor reversibility of charge and discharge, and a decrease in capacity
During the discharge process, the expansion and accumulation of solid precipitates on the surface of the cathode can also lead to irreversible electrochemical reactions, which in turn leads to mass loss of active materials and further causes capacity fading.

Abstract

The invention provides a composite anode of a multi-layer structure for a lithium-sulfur rechargeable battery and a preparation method, which is characterized in that: an anode active substance, a conductive agent, and a binder are uniformly mixed, and then are coated on a current collector, and after coat is dried, a layer of conductive film is sprayed on the surface. The anode surface film is used for conducting and cutting off the sulfur in a cyclic process, thereby effectively raising a first capacity conservation rate of the battery and the cyclic stability.
