Problems solved by technology

The particles of the sulfur / carbon composite prepared by this method are very tightly bound, but the sulfur loading is low
[0005] China Patent Network CN 101891930A discloses a method for preparing carbon nanotube sulfur-based composite positive electrode materials by a gas phase method. This method is beneficial to the dispersion of carbon nanotubes and the uniform distribution of sulfur, but the sulfur content in the composite material is low and difficult to control
This method is simple to operate, but there is still sulfur attached to the surface of the carbon, and most sulfur-dissolving organic solvents are toxic

Abstract

The invention discloses a sulfur / carbon composite material and a preparation method thereof. Nanometer sulfur is uniformly filled in a pore path of a carbon material in the sulfur / carbon composite material to form the nanometer sulfur particle / carbon composite material. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: (1) reacting an aluminum sulfide solution with a sulfur source to generate an aluminum polysulfide solution; (2) adding a surface active agent and the carbon material into the aluminum polysulfide solution, uniformly stirring the resulting product, placing the uniformly stirred solution in an ultrasonic cleaner to carry out ultrasonic oscillation, and heating the resulting product to cause the sulfur generated by decomposition to in situ deposit to the pore path of the carbon material to obtain the sulfur / carbon composite material. According to the sulfur / carbon composite material, a sulfur particle and a carbon particle are tightly bound, the application of the sulfur / carbon composite material as the positive material of a lithium sulfur battery facilitates the reduction of solution loss of an active substance and the inhibition of shuttle effect, aluminum sulfide is generated from the ammonia gas and the hydrogen sulfide, which are generated by the decomposition of the aluminum polysulfide, through a condenser to be recycled, the technical process causes little pollution, the preparation method is simple in technology, low in cost and short in time, sulfur content is high, controllable, and strong in repeatability, and the sulfur / carbon composite material is easy for mass production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrochemistry, and in particular relates to a sulfur / carbon composite material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the popularization of portable electronic products, the rapid development of energy storage technology and electric vehicles, the requirements for the energy density and power density of lithium-ion batteries are getting higher and higher. It is predicted that in the future, 4G mobile communication requires the energy density of the battery to reach more than 500Wh / Kg. Lithium-sulfur batteries have the characteristics of high specific capacity (1675mAh / g) and high energy density (2600Wh / kg), and the raw material elemental sulfur resources are abundant, cheap and environmentally friendly; therefore, lithium-sulfur batteries have great development potential and application prospects. of high energy density secondary batteries.
