Problems solved by technology

Experiments have found that although the cycle stability of lithium-sulfur batteries has been improved, polysulfides will still dissolve in the electrolyte as the number of charge-discharge cycles increases, resulting in the continuous deterioration of the cycle stability of lithium-sulfur batteries.

Abstract

The invention discloses a composite cathode material for a lithium-sulfur battery and a preparation method thereof. The positive electrode material is a composite material of a conductor and sulfur. The preparation method of the present invention comprises the following steps: first, mix the sulfur and the conductor evenly, put them into a closed container, and put an open bottle in the closed container, and the bottle is filled with liquid; During the process, the furnace temperature was raised, and kept at a certain temperature for a certain period of time; after the furnace temperature was cooled, the material in the container was taken out, and after centrifugation, washing and drying, the composite positive electrode material for lithium-sulfur batteries was prepared. The sulfur of the present invention is evenly distributed on the conductor substrate in the form of nanoparticles, and the contact between the sulfur and the conductor is tight, which can effectively suppress the "shuttle effect", and improve the utilization rate and structural stability of sulfur. The lithium-sulfur battery cathode material prepared by the invention has excellent electrochemical performance, simple preparation process, low cost, suitable for large-scale production, and has wide application prospects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of positive electrode materials for lithium-sulfur batteries, and in particular relates to a composite positive electrode material for lithium-sulfur batteries and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] A lithium-sulfur battery is a lithium battery that uses sulfur as the positive electrode material of the battery and metallic lithium as the negative electrode. Elemental sulfur is very abundant in the earth, and has the characteristics of low price and environmental friendliness. The lithium-sulfur battery using sulfur as the positive electrode material has relatively high material theoretical specific capacity and battery theoretical specific energy density, reaching 1675mAh g respectively. -1 and 2600Wh kg -1 , much higher than the actual specific energy density of commercially widely used lithium-ion batteries (no more than 240wh kg -1 ). And sulfur is an element that is friendly to the env...
