Problems solved by technology

In addition to the problems of dissolution and poor conductivity of lithium polysulfide, an intermediate lithium storage state, like sulfur cathode materials, Li 2 The main problems of S cathode materials are the sensitivity to moisture in the air and the difficulty of synthesis and preparation routes.
Most of the current synthetic routes can be divided into direct application of commercial lithium sulfide and chemical synthesis of lithium sulfide, but the cost is high, the preparation process is complicated, and the Li in the complex 2 The disadvantages such as low S content limit its practical application in lithium-sulfur batteries
[0005] The current lithium-free safe negative electrodes are mainly concentrated on materials with high specific capacity such as Si and Sn, but the problem of huge volume change during charging and discharging has not been fundamentally solved, and it cannot be directly commercialized.
