Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-layer electrode structure for a lithium sulfur battery and a preparation method thereof. The multi-layer electrode structure comprises a current collector (1) and a multi-layer covering layer attached to the current collector (1), wherein the multi-layer covering layer has a loose porous layer (2), a conductive skeleton layer (3) and a confinement layer (4) which covers an electrode surface, close to the current collector (1) along a direction perpendicular to the current collector (1). The loose porous layer in the multi-layer electrode structure has a large pore structure and a high porosity, and can fully contain a sulfur active material, electrolyte and a multi-sulfide-ion charge-discharge product; the conductive skeleton layer in the middle provides a high-activity reaction interface for a charge-discharge reaction of the lithium sulfur battery by using a large specific surface area; the confinement layer on the electrode surface limits the diffusion of multiple sulfide ions; and the multi-layer electrode structure provided by the invention solves the problems of low sulfur utilization rate and poor cycle stability under high sulfur content andhigh sulfur loading of the lithium sulfur battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the fields of electrochemistry and batteries, in particular to the field of lithium-sulfur batteries, and relates to a novel multilayer electrode structure for lithium-sulfur battery cathodes and a method for preparing the electric multilayer electrode structure. Background technique [0002] At present, lithium-ion batteries are widely used in various portable electronic devices and electric vehicles, but with the continuous development of these devices, lithium-ion batteries based on graphite and intercalation compounds still cannot meet the needs of social development. In order to further expand the application prospects of lithium-ion batteries, batteries of various systems have attracted the attention of researchers. Among them, the lithium-sulfur battery has a high theoretical specific capacity of 1672mAh / g, which is almost 10 times the theoretical specific capacity of traditional cathode materials such as transition meta...
