Problems solved by technology

There are three main problems in lithium-sulfur batteries: (1) Li-polysulfur compounds dissolve in the electrolyte; (2) Sulfur, as a non-conductive substance, has very poor conductivity, which is not conducive to the high rate performance of the battery; (3) Sulfur in During the charge and discharge process, the volume change is very large, resulting in poor mechanical stability of the electrode
At present, the main problem faced by metal aluminum anode materials is: during the charge-discharge cycle, the reversible formation and decomposition of Li-Al alloy is accompanied by a larger volume change compared with Li-Sn alloy, which makes the alloy more prone to cracks And pulverization, the contact resistance increases, the irreversible capacity loss is formed, and even the reversible lithium storage effect is lost, which finally leads to electrode failure. Therefore, the cycle performance of lithium-ion batteries purely using aluminum as the negative electrode material is very poor.

Embodiment 1

[0037] Example 1: Preparation of carbon-clad aluminum composite material precursor

[0038] Dissolve 2 g of glucose in 100 mL of deionized water, stir and dissolve, and then introduce it into a reactor with a total capacity of 150 mL. Then add 10 g of spherical aluminum powder with a purity of 99.99% and a particle size of 1 to 5 microns, and seal the reaction kettle after adding magnets. The reaction kettle was placed in an oil bath at 180° C., and the reaction kettle was taken out after 2 hours of magnetic stirring. After the reaction kettle is cooled to room temperature, open the reaction kettle and take out the filtered product. The product is in the form of brown or black solid powder, which is separated by centrifugation and washed with water and ethanol three times in the process of "centrifugation, washing and redispersion". The carbon-clad aluminum composite material precursor was obtained after vacuum drying at 40°C.

Embodiment 2

[0039] Example 2: Precursor carbonization

[0040] The carbon-clad aluminum composite material precursor obtained in Example 1 was heated to 800 °C under the protection of a nitrogen atmosphere, and carbonized at a constant temperature for 5 hours to obtain a carbon-clad aluminum composite material.

Embodiment 3

[0041] Example 3: Preparation of Negative Electrode Material

[0042] The carbon-coated aluminum composite material obtained in Example 2 was treated with potassium hydroxide solution (concentration: 30 wt%) for 10 minutes, and the ratio of the mass of the sample powder to the volume of the treatment solution was 10 g: 500 mL. After filtration at room temperature, washing with deionized water, and vacuum drying at 40° C. for 12 hours, a carbon-coated aluminum negative electrode material with high specific surface area and high activity was obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a manufacturing method of a lithium-sulfur battery, in particular to coating an aluminum film on a positive base with carbon-coated sulfur as a positive electrode material, and coating a perforated copper film on a negative base with carbon-coated aluminum as a negative material; Manufacturing method of lithium-sulfur battery rolled together with separator. Background technique [0002] Lithium-ion batteries have the advantages of light weight, large capacity, and no memory effect, so they have been widely used. Many digital devices now use lithium-ion batteries as power sources. The energy density of lithium-ion batteries is very high, its capacity is 1.5 to 2 times that of nickel-metal hydride batteries of the same weight, and its advantages such as low self-discharge rate and no toxic substances are important reasons for its wide application. In 1990, Nagoura and others in Japan developed a negative electrode with petroleu...
