Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, its practical application is limited due to the electrochemical inertness and poor cycle stability of sulfur.
The reduction of elemental sulfur to lithium sulfide is a multi-step reaction such as Figure 4 Shown, S 8 Restore to go through S 6 - , S 4 - , S 2 - , S 2- Intermediate state, from S 8 Direct conversion to lithium sulfide reaction has a higher energy barrier and the reaction is more difficult
Moreover, the intermediate product of the electrochemical reaction with sulfur is easily soluble in the electrolyte, causing a large loss of active substances, reducing the electrode capacity, increasing the viscosity of the electrolyte, decreasing the ion conductivity, and deteriorating the electrode performance.
The "Shuttle" effect of soluble polysulfides leads to a decrease in battery charge and discharge efficiency and low electrode capacity utilization, while insoluble lithium sulfide deposits and agglomerates on the electrode surface, destroying the electrode structure and reducing the cycle performance of the battery

Abstract

The invention relates to a positive electrode material used for the positive electrode of a lithium-sulfur battery and its preparation and application. It uses carbide or nitride of one or more than two metal elements in transition metals as the catalytic component; elemental sulfur as the active component; the catalytic component is first loaded on the carrier, and then the active component is loaded again On the carrier loaded with catalytic components; the content of catalytic components is 2-30% of the total weight of the positive electrode material, the content of sulfur is 30-80% of the total weight of the positive electrode material, and the balance is the carrier. When this positive electrode material is used as the positive electrode of lithium-sulfur batteries, it shows good selectivity for the reduction of elemental sulfur; it reduces the reaction energy barrier required for sulfur reduction, reduces the reaction polarization, and improves the discharge voltage platform. This type of catalyst is environmentally friendly, low in cost and abundant in resources.
