Poor activity, and its active material utilization is relatively low;(2) elemental sulfur can be reduced into readily soluble polysulfide during discharge,
It causes active material to be lost, and after polysulfide is dissolved in electrolyte, will increase concentration of electrolyte, deteriorate its ionic conductivity;
(3) during the charging process, the long-chain polysulphides in electrolyte are dissolved in after anode is oxidized, and readily diffuse into cathode of lithium surface
Electrochemical reduction occurs, is then diffused into anode again and is oxidized again, forms the circular response machine of positive oxidation-cathodic reduction
System, i.e., it is so-called " shuttle effect ", to influence the completion that battery charges normal, and lead to the reduction of charging coulombic efficiency;This
A large amount of dissolutions of outer polysulfide cause to be electrolysed the increase of fluid viscosity and its being greatly reduced for ionic conductivity, accelerate electric polarity
The decline of energy, and reduction of the polysulfide on lithium surface deposits, and also results in cathode of lithium corruption candle, influences filling for lithium electrode
Property;(4) lithium-sulfur cell is closed because of positive sulphur and lithiumation during discharge occurs volume expansion, and cathode lithium is then due to the consumption of lithium
Volume is reduced, and positive and negative anodes volume is caused to repeated variation, and the variation repeatedly of electrode size can make sulfur electrode generate micro-crack, from
And the conductive network of anode and the globality of battery are destroyed, exacerbate the capacity attenuation of lithium-sulfur cell.These problems are seriously made
The about development of lithium-sulfur cell, this is also the emphasis of current lithium-sulfur cell research.
