Problems solved by technology

However, studies have shown that S x Se y Te z @Polyacrylonitrile (x+y+z=1) is not compatible with the lithium metal negative electrode electrolyte system, and it will still produce soluble lithium polysulfide in the ether electrolyte, destroying the solid phase reaction mechanism and causing positive electrode capacity Severe attenuation (Weet.al., Metal-sulfur battery cathodes based on PAN-sulfur composites, J.Am.Chem.Soc.2015,137,12143)

Embodiment 1

[0043] The lithium salt is selected from lithium bisfluorosulfonimide, the ether compound is selected from ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, and the compound containing the cyclic C=O structure is selected from ethylene carbonate. The concentration of lithium bisfluorosulfonimide was 1 mol / L, and ethylene carbonate accounted for 15 wt % of the total mass of ethylene glycol dimethyl ether and ethylene carbonate.

[0044] A lithium-sulfur battery is assembled using the above electrolyte, lithium metal negative electrode, sulfurized polyacrylonitrile positive electrode, and Celgard2400 separator. The specific operations are as follows:

[0045] Mix sulfided polyacrylonitrile, carbon nanotubes and polyvinylidene fluoride in N-methylpyrrolidone in a mass ratio of 8:1:1 to obtain a slurry with a concentration of 30%;

[0046] The slurry was evenly coated on the carbon-coated aluminum foil, dried at 60°C for 12 hours, and then cut into a 11mm diameter disc for a button battery or a 43m...

Embodiment 2~4

[0053] The assembly of the battery is similar to that of Example 1, except that the mass fraction of ethylene carbonate in the electrolyte is 5%, 10%, and 20%.

[0054] Under the condition that the charge-discharge rate is 0.5C, the batteries assembled with the electrolyte solutions provided in Examples 1-4 were tested for cycle performance. The charge-discharge voltage curve is as follows: Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the mass fraction of ethylene carbonate is 5% as EC05, the mass fraction of ethylene carbonate is 10% as EC10, the mass fraction of ethylene carbonate is 15% as EC15, and the mass of ethylene carbonate A score of 20% was recorded as EC20 (the same below). The charge-discharge voltage curves of the batteries assembled in each example showed a single-platform feature, which indicated the effectiveness of ethylene carbonate in transforming the reaction mechanism of vulcanized polyacrylonitrile. However, when the mass fraction of ethylene carbonate is 5%, the ...

Embodiment 5

[0058] The assembly of the battery is similar to that of Example 1, except that the lithium salt in the electrolyte is lithium bis-trifluoromethanesulfonimide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of high specific energy secondary batteries, in particular to a lithium-sulfur secondary battery with high cycle stability and high coulombic efficiency. Background technique [0002] The theoretical specific capacity of lithium-sulfur battery is 2600Wh / kg. It is considered to be a promising next-generation high-energy lithium battery system, which is expected to solve the problems of "mileage anxiety" of new energy vehicles. The two-electron conversion process of sulfur in traditional lithium-sulfur batteries goes through the "solid-liquid-solid" reaction pathway. Due to the intrinsic electronic insulation of elemental sulfur and slow kinetic characteristics, it is usually necessary to introduce a conductive substrate (such as carbon) to form a composite positive electrode. In addition, chemical reactions inevitably occur between nucleophilic lithium polysulfide intermediates and electrophilic carbonates, s...
