Problems solved by technology

Since the adsorption and catalysis process mainly occurs on the surface of catalyst particles, the surface atoms of nanoscale particles only account for a small part of the total number of atoms, resulting in low catalyst utilization.

Embodiment 1

[0045] Example 1 is the preparation of SA-Cu / NCNF and its application in lithium-sulfur battery cathode. The natural cotton is washed successively with 10% dilute hydrochloric acid, distilled water and ethanol, and the washed cotton is dried in an oven at 60°C for 24 hours. Such as image 3 As shown in (a), the dried cotton and copper foam are put into the tube furnace together. Such as image 3 As shown in (c), under argon atmosphere, keep warm at 25°C for 30 minutes, raise the temperature to 1000°C at a rate of 5°C / min, keep warm for 2 hours, switch to ammonia atmosphere, keep warm for 1 hour, and then heat it under argon atmosphere. The furnace was cooled to room temperature, and the SA-Cu / NCNF foam was obtained. Such as Figure 6 As shown, no obvious particles were observed locally in the carbon fiber, but the X-ray energy scattering spectrum showed uniformly dispersed copper signals, and copper was uniformly dispersed in the nitrogen-doped carbon fiber matrix in the f...

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a monatomic copper catalyst and an application of the monatomic copper catalyst in a positive electrode of a lithium-sulfur battery, and belongs to thetechnical field of battery materials. Copper atoms on foamy copper are captured and migrated to a carbon fiber matrix through high-temperature ammonia gas treatment, and nitrogen-doped carbon fiber foam material loaded with monatomic copper is prepared and serves as a carrier material of positive electrode sulfur in the lithium-sulfur battery. According to the monatomic copper catalyst prepared bythe preparation method, the lithium-sulfur battery has relatively high reaction kinetics, excellent capacity exertion and cycling stability under high sulfur loading capacity. The preparation methodis simple in process flow, and provides a wide prospect for the application of the monatomic catalyst in the lithium-sulfur battery.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of battery materials, in particular to a preparation method of a single-atom copper catalyst and its application in a positive electrode of a lithium-sulfur battery. Background technique: [0002] Sulfur has the characteristics of abundant natural reserves, environmental friendliness, and high theoretical capacity (1675mAh / g), and is an ideal battery cathode material. Lithium-sulfur batteries have a high theoretical energy density (2600Wh / kg), which can meet the energy density requirements of future energy storage devices. However, sulfur still faces great challenges as a cathode material. Sulfur and discharge product Li 2 S / Li 2 S 2 It is an electronic insulator, which leads to incomplete conversion of active substances in the electrochemical process and low utilization. In addition, the intermediate product lithium polysulfide (Li 2 S x , 3≤x≤8) can be dissolved in the electrolyte, and under the ac...
