Problems solved by technology

However, before the commercialization of lithium-sulfur batteries, there are still many problems to be solved, the most important of which are the low capacity retention rate and poor cycle stability of lithium-sulfur batteries during charging and discharging.
The main reason for these two problems is that during the discharge process of the battery, the elemental S in the positive electrode is reduced to produce intermediate products such as polysulfides. Coulombic efficiency
At the same time, these polysulfides will diffuse to the surface of the lithium electrode with the electrolyte and corrode the lithium (negative electrode) electrode, resulting in irreversible capacity loss.

Abstract

The invention discloses a positive pole material for a high-performance lithium-sulfur battery and a preparation method thereof. The positive pole material comprises a sulfur composite material and a carbon material. The preparation process comprises the following steps: assembling sulfur into pores of metal-organic frameworks (MOF), thus preparing the sulfur composite material; and then, loading the sulfur composite material on the carbon material. According to the invention, polysulfide generated in the charging/discharging process of a lithium-sulfur battery is limited in the pores of the MOF material, thereby reducing the shuttle phenomenon, preventing the polysulfide from migrating along with the electrolyte and improving the electric capacity and cycle performance of the lithium-sulfur battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lithium-sulfur battery electrode material, in particular to a lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the theoretical specific capacity of lithium-ion rechargeable batteries using lithium cobalt oxide as the positive electrode material is 275mAh / g, but the actual capacity is only 130-140mAh / g. Although it has been commercialized, the specific capacity of the battery has little room for improvement, which limits power tools. , especially the development of electric vehicles. The theoretical specific capacity of a lithium-sulfur battery mainly composed of sulfur (elemental sulfur, organic sulfur, etc.) as the positive electrode, metal lithium as the negative electrode, and electrolyte can be as high as 1675mAh / g, so lithium-sulfur batteries have gradually become a research hotspot. However, before the commercialization of lithium-sulfur batt...
