Problems solved by technology

In particular, straw, rice husk, and wood and bamboo processing residues are often treated as waste for simple incineration, causing pollution to the atmospheric environment.
However, there are no literature or patent reports that carbonize plants such as rice husks to prepare sulfur / carbon composite materials and use them as positive electrodes for lithium-sulfur batteries.

Embodiment 1

[0043] Preparation of sulfur / carbon composite material: After washing and drying rice husks, carbonization treatment was carried out at 900° C. for 1 hour under an argon atmosphere. The cooled carbonized rice husk is ground and pulverized into 100 nm-50 μm particles. The powder material was stirred in 0.5 mol / L sodium hydroxide solution at room temperature for 4 hours to remove silicon oxides in the carbonized product. After filtering the sodium hydroxide solution to obtain the carbon material, and after further washing with water, the carbon material is dried, and the scanning electron microscope photo is as follows: figure 1 As shown, the specific surface area of ​​the prepared sample reaches 1000 m 2 / g or more. The dried carbon material and sulfur are mixed evenly according to the mass ratio of 3:2, and then the mixture is heated to 100°C under vacuum conditions, kept for 24 hours, and the sulfur / carbon composite material is obtained after cooling. The content of sulfur...

Embodiment 2

[0049] The washed and dried rice husks were kept at 600° C. for 10 hours under an argon atmosphere to carry out carbonization treatment. The cooled carbonized product was ball milled and stirred in 10 mol / L potassium hydroxide solution at 100°C for 0.5 hour to remove silicon oxide in the product. The solid washed with potassium hydroxide solution is further washed with water and then dried to obtain a carbon material, and the carbon material is further heated to 1500 ° C in a vacuum environment and kept for 1 hour to increase the crystallinity of the carbon material, thereby improving the carbon material. conductivity. The further calcined carbon material is cooled and mixed evenly with sulfur element according to the mass ratio of 3:2, and then the mixture is heated to 600°C for 2 hours in an argon atmosphere, and the sulfur / carbon composite material is obtained after cooling. The sulfur in the composite material The content is about 40% by mass.

Embodiment 3

[0054] The washed and dried rice husks are kept at 1100° C. for 1 hour under vacuum conditions for carbonization treatment. The cooled carbonized rice husk is ground and pulverized. The powder material was heated to 80°C with 5 mol / L sodium hydroxide solution and stirred for 2 hours to remove silicon oxides in the carbonized product. The carbon material is obtained after filtering the sodium hydroxide solution, and the carbon material is washed with water and then dried. Then, the carbon material is further heated to 1800° C. for 24 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere to increase the crystallinity of the carbon material. The further calcined carbon material and sulfur element are uniformly mixed according to the mass ratio of 3:2, the mixture is heated to 200°C under vacuum conditions, kept for 10 hours, and the sulfur / carbon composite material is obtained after cooling. The sulfur content in the composite material is about 40% by mass.
