Problems solved by technology

However, traditional porous materials generally have small specific surface area, single pore size, poor structural consistency, difficult to control the pore size, and limited ability of the material to absorb the active substance sulfur, resulting in low sulfur content and uneven distribution in the prepared composite cathode material. Poor performance, after assembling into a battery for several cycles, there will still be a large amount of active material dissolved from the pores of the material structure, resulting in the loss of active material, which makes it difficult to further increase the energy density of lithium-sulfur batteries

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a sulfur / porous carbon composite cathode material, comprising the steps of (1) hydrothermally pre-carbonizing: mixing an organic nitrogen source and an organic carbon source, and preparing a nitrogen-doped precursor via hydrothermal reaction; (2) activating: mixing the nitrogen-doped precursor with a pore-expanding agent, and calcining at high temperature to obtain nitrogen-doped porous carbon material; (3) preparing the sulfur / porous carbon composite cathode material: mixing sulfur and porous carbon, reacting for a period of time, and grinding to obtain the sulfur / porous carbon composite cathode material. By using glucose as a carbon source and acetamide as an organic nitrogen source, and controlling morphology of the carbon material through a series of methods such a hydrothermal pre-carbonization, pore expanding with the pore-expanding agent, and low temperature melting, it is ensured that sulfur particles are adsorbed to ducts of the carbon material and electrochemical properties of an electrode are improved; the sulfur / porous carbon composite cathode material having good reversibility and cycle stability is thereby worthier of popularization.

Description

[0001] 【Technical field】 [0002] The invention relates to the field of positive electrode materials for power lithium batteries, in particular to a method for preparing sulfur / porous carbon composite positive electrode materials. [0003] 【Background technique】 [0004] With the rapid development of society, the demand for energy is increasing day by day, as well as the depletion of reserves and the pollution of fossil fuels to the environment, people's demand for new alternative energy sources is increasing day by day. Traditional lithium-ion batteries have been widely studied as new alternative energy sources. However, the energy density of general lithium-ion batteries is difficult to exceed 300Wh / kg, which limits their wide application in pure electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. . Therefore, seeking low-cost, high-energy-density renewable energy is the key to solving the problem of lithium battery development. Elemental sulfur is considered to be an excellent cathode ...
