Problems solved by technology

The theoretical specific capacity of the currently commercialized lithium-ion battery is limited by its own theoretical capacity (the theoretical specific capacity is 300mAh / g), which obviously cannot meet the demand, while the theoretical capacity of the new lithium-sulfur battery is about five times the theoretical capacity of the commercial lithium-ion battery. times (theoretical specific capacity is 1675mAh / g, specific energy is 2500Wh / kg), considered to be one of the most promising high-energy batteries
[0003] However, the current cathode materials for lithium-sulfur batteries are mainly elemental sulfur and its compounds, which face two major challenges: (1) The conductivity of elemental sulfur is low, resulting in low sulfur loading on the cathode
(2) During the charging and discharging process of the battery, the polysulfide produced by the positive electrode dissolves in the electrolyte, resulting in the loss of active materials and the electrode life is not long

Abstract

The invention provides a research of a surface-modified nitrogen-doped porous carbon-sulfur composite material in a positive electrode of a lithium-sulfur battery. The nitrogen-doped porous carbon material is prepared by a hard template method and an ammonia activation method; the carbon material is mixed with sublimed sulfur powder evenly; the mixture is heated to synthesize the carbon-sulfur composite material in an airtight condition; and a film is formed by polymerizing dopamine on the porous carbon surface and then is chemically crosslinked with graphene oxide to obtain the surface-modified nitrogen-doped porous carbon-sulfur composite material. The surface of the composite material is evenly coated with polydopamine and the graphene oxide; and a nitrogen-containing functional group in the polydopamine and an oxygen-containing functional group in the graphene oxide can well fix sulfur and inhibit shuttling of polysulphide. Furthermore, a similar shell structure is formed on the surface of the carbon material through the chemical crosslinking action of the polydopamine and the graphene oxide to stabilize the material structure, so that the composite material with good performance for the positive electrode of the lithium-sulfur battery is obtained.
