AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

This separation leads to problems such as reduced charge and discharge efficiency.
In addition, the active material is likely to become inactive due to the lack of conductive agent on the farthest side from the current collector
Therefore, the overall battery capacity may decrease

Embodiment 1

[0041] Prepare the binder solution by dissolving polyvinyl acetate in acrylonitrile. Carbon powder (special grade P) conductive agent was added to the binder solution to obtain a dispersion solution. Sulfur powder ground to an average diameter of about 20 μm was added to the dispersion solution, and the dispersion solution was stirred by a ball mill for more than 24 hours. A cathode active material slurry was prepared from the stirred dispersion solution. In the positive electrode active material slurry, the weight ratio of sulfur:binder:conductive agent was 60:20:20.

[0042] The cathode active material slurry was coated on the nickel foam with a porosity of 80%, and the slurry-coated nickel foam was dried at 60° C. for 1 hour. The dried slurry-coated nickel foam was pressed to a thickness of 50 μm by a roller press to prepare a positive electrode.

Embodiment 2

[0044] A positive electrode was prepared by the same method as in Example 1 except that the current collector was a nonwoven fiber coated with nickel and having a porosity of 80%.

Embodiment 3

[0046] A positive electrode was prepared by the same method as in Example 1 except that a current collector with a porosity of 80% was used.

Abstract

A positive electrode for a lithium-sulfur battery includes a sulfur-based positive active material, a conductive agent and a binder filled in a porous current collector. The lithium-sulfur battery having the positive electrode can improve capacity characteristics by enhancing the utilization of the sulfur-based positive active material, and also improve cycle life characteristics by inhibiting the detachment of the active material from the current collector.

Description

[0001] Comparison of related applications [0002] This application is based on Korean Patent Application No. 2000-69642 filed with the Korean Industrial Property Office on November 22, 2000, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. Background of the invention [0003] field of invention [0004] The present invention relates to a positive electrode for a lithium-sulfur battery and a lithium-sulfur battery with the electrode, in particular to a positive electrode for a lithium-sulfur battery with improved active material utilization and charge-discharge efficiency and a lithium-sulfur battery with the positive electrode. [0005] Description of related technologies [0006] Lithium-sulfur batteries use sulfur-based compounds with sulfur-sulfur bonds as positive electrode active materials, and metal materials such as lithium as negative electrode active materials. Upon discharge, the sulfur-sulfur bond breaks d...
