Problems solved by technology

[0003] Although lithium-sulfur batteries have been studied for decades, and some research results have been obtained in recent years, there is still a certain distance from the realization of industrialization.
There are some serious problems in the charging and discharging process of lithium-sulfur batteries. First, the conductivity of sulfur and lithium sulfide is low, and the volume of sulfur particles changes greatly during the charging and discharging process. Such changes will destroy the electrode structure; second, The generated intermediate polysulfide is highly soluble in the organic electrolyte, resulting in the loss of active materials and energy consumption; third, the dissolved polysulfide will diffuse to the cathode and react with the lithium cathode, forming a discharge product Li 2 S or Li 2 S 2 It will form a precipitate on the surface of the lithium cathode; fourth, the dissolved polysulfide is prone to shuttle effect
The shuttle effect and precipitation on the surface of the lithium cathode lead to low sulfur utilization, low coulombic efficiency and fast capacity fading of the sulfur cathode
In order to solve these problems, researchers at home and abroad have adopted many methods. Among them, adding a functional interlayer to the lithium-sulfur battery is an effective and simple method. The functional interlayer is placed between the positive electrode and the separator. It can physically or chemically fix the shuttling effect of polysulfides, which improves the utilization rate of positive active materials, thereby improving the overall performance of lithium-sulfur batteries. However, the traditional coating method is not practical in practice. In the application process, there are problems such as complex preparation process, difficult operation, and effective component falling off
