Problems solved by technology

[0002] With the continuous miniaturization of electronic equipment and the rapid development of mobile communication equipment, portable electronic information products, electric vehicles, and energy storage power stations, traditional transition metal oxides such as lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2), lithium manganate (LiMn2 O4) and Lithium-ion batteries with lithium nickelate (LiNiO2) as the positive electrode material can no longer meet the needs of overall development, especially the requirements of high specific capacity and high energy density. Therefore, it is imminent to develop high-capacity lithium batteries that meet the development needs of the information age. The theoretical specific capacity of sulfur batteries is nearly ten times that of current commercial lithium-ion batteries, and the reserves of sulfur are very rich, and its supply chain is also very safe and stable.
In the prior art, since the lithium-sulfur battery uses metal lithium as the negative electrode and sulfur or sulfur composite material as the positive electrode, during the charge and discharge process, the elemental sulfur is reduced to long-chain polysulfide Li2 Sx (4<x<8), Dissolved in the electrolyte, migration will occur, resulting in a shuttle effect, and then the elemental sulfur will continue to be reduced to short-chain polysulfides, and finally generate insulating and insoluble Li2S2 / Li2S, and the insoluble Li2S2 / Li2S is deposited on the metal lithium battery. The surface of the electrode directly leads to the loss of active materials, which seriously affects the coulombic efficiency and cycle life of the battery. Finally, the dendrite lithium produced by uneven dissolution and deposition and the volume expansion during the formation of lithium sulfide will lead to a rapid decay of the discharge capacity. Traditional The separators are mainly made of polypropylene PP, polyethylene PE or their composite materials PP / PE / PP. Although these membranes are low in cost and high in flexibility, they have poor lyophilicity, low ionic conductivity and cannot inhibit multiple Sulfide dissolves and diffuses in the electrolyte

Abstract

The invention discloses a modified diaphragm for a lithium-sulfur battery and a preparation process of the modified diaphragm. The modified diaphragm comprises a base membrane and a composite layer arranged on the surface of the base membrane, wherein the composite layer is doped with nanometer metal oxide and nonacobalt octasulfide. According to the invention, the composite layer is arranged on the base membrane, the composite layer is prepared from metal sulfide and the metal oxide, and the metal sulfide, namely nonacobalt octasulfide is arranged on the surface of the base membrane in an array mode; due to the fact that the metal sulfide has porosity and polarity and the metal oxide has adsorption and catalysis performance, when the metal sulfide and the metal oxide are compounded, the physical barrier and chemical adsorption effects of the metal sulfide and the catalytic action of the metal oxide are given to full play, so mechanical stability is improved, and the shuttling of polysulfide is effectively prevented; and thus, the prepared composite layer inhibits shuttling effect, the coulombic efficiency of a lithium-sulfur battery is improved, and the cycle life of the lithium-sulfur battery is prolonged.
