Problems solved by technology

Although Li-S batteries have many advantages, there are still many problems in their practical application: fast capacity fading and low conductivity of sulfur, etc.
In these methods, heat treatment and mechanical mixing are time and energy consuming, and the sulfur distribution within the carbon structure is difficult to control
In addition, the bonding ability between sulfur and carbon materials is also rather poor
Through the recrystallization of sulfur, the distribution of sulfur in the carbon matrix will be improved, but the size of sulfur is difficult to control
Moreover, the methods for designing and preparing many effective and precise microstructures are mostly cumbersome, and it is impossible to achieve a large number of rapid preparations of lithium-sulfur battery cathode materials with high performance.

Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, energy storage equipment is becoming more and more portable. Lithium battery is the most common portable battery nowadays, but the current commercial lithium battery has the problem of low energy storage density. Lithium sulfur battery is a kind of lithium battery. It has the advantages of low cost and high energy density. Lithium-sulfur batteries have a high theoretical capacity (1672mA h g -1 ), thus having great potential in next-generation electrical energy storage applications. In addition to high energy density, elemental sulfur resources are abundant and environmentally friendly. Despite the many advantages of Li-S batteries, there are still numerous problems for their prac...
