Abstract

The invention discloses a medium-salt-concentration electrolyte for a lithium-sulfur battery. The electrolyte contains a diether-fluorinated ether three-solvent system formed by a mixed lithium salt, a first ether solvent, a diether solvent and at least one fluorinated ether solvent, the mixed lithium salt contains a lithium salt capable of forming a passive film on the lithium metal negative electrode; the oxygen coordination steric hindrance of the first ether solvent is small (the number of carbon atoms in molecules / the number of oxygen atoms is smaller than or equal to 4), and lithium salt can be dissociated; the oxygen coordination steric hindrance of the second ether solvent is relatively large (the number of carbon atoms / the number of oxygen atoms in molecules is greater than or equal to 5), so that the salt concentration and the electrolyte viscosity can be reduced; the fluorinated ether solvent can further reduce the concentration of the lithium salt and improve the miscibility of the electrolyte, the fluorinated group can promote formation of a stable lithium metal negative electrode passivation layer, and the deposition and stripping efficiency of negative electrode metal is improved. The electrolyte provided by the invention can be used for assembling a lithium battery, and the assembled lithium battery is long in cycle life, weak in self-discharge effect, high in conductivity, low in viscosity, good in wettability and relatively high in commercial application value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of batteries, and particularly relates to a medium salt concentration electrolyte for lithium-sulfur batteries. Background technique [0002] Due to the very high theoretical specific capacity of lithium metal, lithium metal batteries using lithium metal as the negative electrode have great potential as next-generation secondary batteries due to their outstanding theoretical energy density. During the charging and discharging process, the electrolyte will continuously undergo side reactions with metallic lithium and accompanied by the growth of lithium dendrites, thus causing the battery capacity to decay or short-circuit. NCM cathode materials and sulfur-containing materials also cause severe self-discharge and capacity fading of the battery along with the dissolution of components. Elemental sulfur is abundant and inexpensive, and has a very high theoretical specific capacity (1670mAh / g). However, tradit...
