Problems solved by technology

[0004] Since the traditional physical confinement method cannot change the situation that the capacity is still significantly reduced during the cycle, in addition, the introduction of complex synthesis methods and other substances will inevitably increase the production cost in practical applications and reduce the utilization rate of active material sulfur
These factors limit the sulfur content in sulfur composite cathode materials, resulting in lower battery energy density of composite materials
