Problems solved by technology

[0003] Compared with traditional lithium-ion batteries, the intrinsic characteristics of the multi-electron reaction of sulfur molecules form the characteristics of high-capacity electrode materials, but at the same time lead to more complex lithium-sulfur battery systems, mainly the following problems: (1) Safety issues
The surface of the metal lithium negative electrode is uneven and uneven, causing lithium ions to accumulate on the surface of the negative electrode to form dendrites, which will pierce the separator and cause a short circuit between the positive and negative electrodes of the battery, resulting in combustion and explosion of the battery; (2) sulfide dissolution problem
Sulfur electrodes produce soluble polysulfides during charging and discharging. On the one hand, high-order polysulfides diffuse across the diaphragm and directly react with metal lithium anodes to form low-order polysulfides, which leads to side reaction cycles in lithium-sulfur batteries. That is, the shuttle effect, which reduces the Coulombic efficiency of lithium-sulfur batteries; on the other hand, it also leads to the loss of sulfur-containing components in the battery, which makes the battery performance rapidly decay

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lithium battery and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a lithium-sulfur battery diaphragm and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Lithium-sulfur batteries have high energy density and can be used in the fields of individual power supplies, drones and passenger vehicles. Lithium-sulfur batteries use metallic lithium as the negative electrode, which poses a safety hazard when used. Due to the inhomogeneity of the lithium metal surface, lithium dendrites are easily generated during the cycle, causing a short circuit inside the battery and causing a fire to burn. The energy density of lithium-sulfur batteries is about 3-5 times that of ordinary batteries. During the charging and discharging process, the heat is severe. The overheating of the battery itself can easily lead to thermal runaway of the battery, causing fire or even explosion. The use of functional separators can inhibit the occurr...
