Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lithium-sulfur battery, in particular to a lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode, a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, people's demand for resources is also getting higher and higher. At the end of 2012, the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics showed that the per capita energy consumption was 293.8kg standard coal, and the per capita electricity consumption was 460.4KWh, of which electricity consumption accounted for 80% of the total energy consumption. [0003] The lithium-sulfur battery uses metal lithium as the negative electrode and elemental sulfur as the positive electrode, and its theoretical energy density is as high as 2600Whkg -1 , which is more than 5 times that of traditional lithium-ion batteries. At the same time, sulfur, which is used as the posit...
