Embodiment 1

[0031] The positive electrode material of the lithium-sulfur battery is a cobalt tetroxide double-layer hollow sphere-carbon nanotube-sulfur composite material.

[0032] The cobalt tetroxide double-layer hollow sphere is composed of two inner and outer hollow spheres, the diameter of the inner hollow sphere is 400-500 nm, and the diameter of the outer hollow sphere is 1.2-1.6 μm. The obtained cobalt tetroxide double-layer hollow microspheres have good size uniformity, rough shell surface, and consist of uniform nanoparticles with abundant pores, providing abundant ion transfer channels, which are beneficial to the entry of electrolyte as electrode materials. The larger inner cavity between shells favors larger sulfur loadings.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium-sulfur batteries, and in particular relates to a lithium-sulfur battery cathode material and a preparation method thereof. The positive electrode material is a double-layer hollow sphere-carbon nanotube-sulfur composite material of tricobalt tetroxide. The cathode material has a higher specific capacity under high current density and has a good cycle life. The preparation method uses a spray-drying method to coat the three-cobalt tetroxide double-layer hollow spheres with carbon nanotubes, which can achieve the best coating effect, and at the same time improve the conductivity of the material. Through the coating support of carbon nanotubes, it also enhances The structural stability of cobalt tetroxide spheres is ensured, so that the material has the best adsorption effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium-sulfur batteries, and in particular relates to a positive electrode material for lithium-sulfur batteries and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Lithium-sulfur battery is a kind of lithium battery with sulfur as the positive electrode and metal lithium as the negative electrode. Its specific capacity is as high as 1675mAh / g, which is much higher than that of the widely used commercial lithium cobalt oxide battery (<150mAh / g). In theory, a lithium-sulfur battery of the same weight could provide an electric vehicle with three times the battery life of current ordinary lithium-ion batteries. In addition, sulfur is a non-polluting, environmentally friendly element with abundant reserves, light weight and cheapness, making it a promising material for lithium-sulfur batteries. [0003] The charging and discharging principle of the lithium-sulfur battery is as follows: during...
