Problems solved by technology

The mechanical stability of this SEI film is relatively poor. During the metal stripping / deposition process, the SEI film ruptures due to stress changes, and then metal dendrites are generated at the cracks.
The growth of dendrites is unfavorable, which will not only lead to a decrease in Coulombic efficiency, but also pass through the separator to reach the positive electrode, resulting in a short circuit risk and a safety hazard
[0004] Forming a stable SEI film on the surface of the metal negative electrode by introducing electrolyte additives is an effective method to protect the metal negative electrode. However, the current additives have single functions and complex components, and some additives can also cause environmental pollution.

Abstract

The invention discloses an electrolyte for a metal-sulfur secondary battery and the metal-sulfur secondary battery containing the electrolyte. The electrolyte for the metal-sulfur secondary battery comprises metal salt, an organic solvent and a cerium (IV)-based additive. The cerium (IV)-based additive is one or more of cerium nitrate, cerium fluoride, cerium chloride, cerium iodide, ceric ammonium nitrate and cerium trifluoromethanesulfonate; the concentration of the metal salt in the electrolyte is 0.5-2.0 mol / L, and the addition amount of the cerium (IV)-based additive is 0.1-5 wt% of the total mass of the metal salt and the organic solvent; and the water content in the electrolyte is less than 100 ppm. The invention provides a metal-sulfur secondary battery comprising the electrolyte. The cerium (IV)-based additive in the electrolyte can effectively protect the negative electrode of the battery and ensure the stability of the negative electrode structure; and the additive can also act on a positive electrode, has good adsorption and catalysis effects on sulfur and sulfide, can effectively inhibit the shuttle effect of polysulfide, and improves the cycle performance of the battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of secondary batteries, and in particular relates to an electrolytic solution for a metal-sulfur secondary battery and a metal-sulfur secondary battery containing the electrolytic solution. Background technique [0002] In recent years, lithium-ion secondary batteries have been widely used in our lives, but with the development of transportation and distributed energy storage, we still need to pursue cheaper energy storage batteries. Compared with traditional lithium-ion batteries, metal-sulfur secondary batteries have attracted much attention due to their large theoretical capacity, high energy density, and low cost, and are one of the most promising electrochemical energy storage systems. [0003] However, the practical application of metal-sulfur secondary batteries has been constrained by problems such as low capacity, fast decay, and low Coulombic efficiency. These can be attributed to the special prop...
