Problems solved by technology

The "shuttle effect" causes a significant change in the volume of the lithium-sulfur battery, which seriously affects the structure and cycle stability of the positive electrode; (3) the conductivity of sulfur is very poor, and the volume change of sulfur during charging and discharging will affect the stability of the battery; (4) The reaction between sulfur and lithium makes the battery volume larger, and the resulting product lithium sulfide will be crushed due to the volume change, resulting in the separation of more and more sulfur from the carrier in subsequent charge-discharge cycles, resulting in a decrease in battery capacity
Therefore, the problems in the sulfur cathode seriously affect the electrochemical performance of lithium-sulfur batteries.
At the same time, metal lithium as the negative electrode will also have some adverse effects. The electrolyte will be reduced on the surface of lithium, forming a solid electrolyte interface film, resulting in reduced capacity, low energy output, and more lithium will be consumed in practical applications; The activity is very high, and dendrites may be generated during the charge and discharge process, resulting in short circuit of the battery
