Description

Lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material, and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of battery materials, and particularly relates to a lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
At present, limited by the capacity of the positive active material, the energy density of the lithium ion battery can be improved in a small amount, and the limit value of the lithium ion battery is generally considered to be 250-300 Wh/Kg, and the aim of 700Wh/Kg is difficult to achieve by the lithium ion battery, so that the development of a next-generation novel battery is urgently needed. The lithium-sulfur battery is a battery system which adopts sulfur or a sulfur-containing compound as a positive electrode and lithium or a lithium storage material as a negative electrode and realizes mutual conversion of electric energy and chemical energy by breaking/generating a sulfur-sulfur bond. The lithium-sulfur battery can better meet four aspects of the requirements of future power batteries: namely high energy density, better safety, environmental protection and low cost.
However, the lithium metal negative electrode and the sulfur-based positive electrode material in the lithium-sulfur battery mainly have the following problems: (1) at room temperature, the most thermodynamically stable sulfur molecule is a crown S composed of eight S atoms connected together8The bonding between the molecules forms elemental sulphur of very good crystallinity, which is a typical electronic and ionic insulator, and therefore S8The electrochemical activity of the electrode active material is poor, and the utilization rate of the active material is low; (2) elemental sulfur can be reduced into easily soluble polysulfide in the discharging process, so that active substances are lost, and after the polysulfide is dissolved in electrolyte, the concentration of the electrolyte can be increased, and the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte is deteriorated; (3) in the charging process, after the anode is oxidized, long-chain polysulfide dissolved in electrolyte is easily diffused to the surface of a lithium cathode to be subjected to electrochemical reduction, and then is diffused to the anode to be oxidized again, so that a cyclic reaction mechanism of anode oxidation-cathode reduction is formed, namely, the shuttle effect, so that the completion of the normal charging of a battery is influenced, and the coulombic efficiency of charging is reduced; in addition, the large amount of polysulfide is dissolved, so that the viscosity of the electrolyte is increased, the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte is greatly reduced, the degradation of the electrode performance is accelerated, and the reduction deposition of polysulfide on the surface of lithium can cause the corrosion of a lithium negative electrode and influence the chargeability of a lithium electrode; (4) in the discharging process of the lithium-sulfur battery, volume expansion occurs due to the combination of positive electrode sulfur and lithium, negative electrode lithium is reduced in volume due to the consumption of lithium, so that the volumes of the positive electrode and the negative electrode repeatedly change, and the sulfur electrode generates micro cracks due to the repeated change of the size of the electrode, so that the conductive network of the positive electrode and the integrity of the battery are damaged, and the capacity attenuation of the lithium-sulfur battery is aggravated. These problems have severely restricted the development of lithium sulfur batteries, which is also the focus of current lithium sulfur battery research.
CN106299317A discloses a positive electrode material of a lithium-sulfur battery, which includes a positive active material, the positive active material includes elemental sulfur, the positive active material further includes a conductive polymer, and the elemental sulfur and the conductive polymer form a three-dimensional cross-linked hollow tube; the elemental sulfur and the conductive polymer are compounded to form a compound, the polymer molecules contain unsaturated double bonds, and the elemental sulfur and the unsaturated double bonds of the chain polymer form a chemical bonding effect to form a three-dimensional crosslinking network structure. The invention also provides a preparation method of the lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material. The positive electrode material of the lithium-sulfur battery is easy to generate sulfide to dissolve out in the charge-discharge cycle process, so that capacity fading is caused.
CN107611395A discloses a small-sized graphene lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material, a lithium-sulfur battery prepared from the same, and a preparation method, where the preparation method includes the following steps: (1) preparing small-size graphene by using microcrystalline graphite powder as a raw material and adopting an electrolytic method; (2) preparing a binder solution; (3) and compounding the small-size graphene or the surface modified small-size graphene with sulfur to form a graphene/sulfur composite material, namely the small-size graphene lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material. The positive electrode material prepared by the method is easy to generate sulfide dissolution in the charge-discharge cycle process, so that capacity attenuation is caused.
CN106340631A discloses a preparation method of a positive electrode material of a lithium-sulfur battery, which comprises the following steps: (1) soaking cotton: soaking cotton in hydrochloric acid solution containing zinc chloride, sealing, maintaining the temperature, removing the redundant solution, drying the mixture, and maintaining the temperature to obtain gray or brown solid; (2) preparation of porous carbon substrate: sequentially carrying out carbonization treatment and acidification treatment on the solid, and then washing, drying and calcining to obtain a porous carbon matrix; (3) preparation of carbon-sulfur composite material: and co-heating the porous carbon substrate and elemental sulfur to synthesize the lithium-sulfur battery cathode material. The positive electrode material prepared by the method is easy to generate sulfide dissolution in the charge-discharge cycle process, so that capacity attenuation is caused.
Therefore, there is an urgent need in the art to develop a novel positive electrode material for a lithium-sulfur battery, which can inhibit the dissolution and loss of an intermediate product during charge and discharge cycles, thereby improving the cycle stability of a sulfur electrode, and which has a simple preparation method and is industrially producible.

As can be seen from Table 1, in example 4, compared to example 1, the first coulombic efficiency and the capacity retention rate at 200 weeks are lower at the current density of 1C, probably because the content of the metal-containing sulfide molecular sieve in example 4 is too low, and further the sulfur is less dispersed in the pores of the metal-containing sulfide molecular sieve, and the metal-containing sulfide molecular sieve has a poor S pair2-Has less electrostatic attraction effectMultiple S2-In combination with lithium, the electrochemical performance of the material is reduced, so that the first coulombic efficiency and 200-week capacity retention rate are lower in example 4 compared with example 1.
As can be seen from Table 1, in example 5, compared with example 1, the specific capacity of initial discharge is lower at a current density of 1C, probably because the content of the metal-containing sulfide molecular sieve in example 5 is too high, the content of elemental sulfur is too low, and the active capacity of electrochemical reaction is lower, so that example 5 is compared with example 1
In example 1, the first discharge specific capacity was low.
As can be seen from table 1, in example 6, compared to example 1, the first discharge specific capacity is lower at a current density of 1C, which is probably because the content of the sulfur-loaded sulfide molecular sieve in example 6 is too low, the content of graphene is too high, and the active capacity of the electrochemical reaction is lower, so that in example 6, compared to example 1, the first discharge specific capacity is lower.
As can be seen from table 1, in example 7, compared to example 1, the first coulombic efficiency and the 200-cycle capacity retention rate are lower at a current density of 1C, and probably because the content of the sulfur-loaded sulfide molecular sieve in example 7 is too high and the content of graphene is too low, and further the conductivity of the obtained lithium sulfur battery positive electrode material is poor, and the coating property on the sulfur-loaded sulfide molecular sieve is poor, the first coulombic efficiency and the 200-cycle capacity retention rate of example 7 are lower than those of example 1.
As can be seen from Table 1, in comparative example 1, the first coulombic efficiency and the capacity retention rate at 200 weeks were lower at the current density of 1C than that of example 1, probably because the metal-containing sulfide molecular sieve was not added in comparative example 1, and S generated during the discharge process2-The lithium ion battery is easy to combine with lithium, so that the volume of an electrode material is expanded, and a product is easy to enter an electrolyte to cause the loss of active substances, so that the electrochemical performance of the material is reduced, so that the first coulombic efficiency and the 200-week capacity retention rate of the comparative example 1 are lower than those of the example 1.
As can be seen from Table 1, in comparative example 2, the specific capacity at the first discharge, the first discharge at a current density of 1C, and the first discharge at a current density of 1C, are compared with those in example 1The lower coulombic efficiency and 200-week capacity retention rate may be due to the use of hexagonal mesoporous all-silica molecular sieve, hexagonal mesoporous all-silica molecular sieve pair S in comparative example 22-Without electrostatic attraction, and S is thereby produced2-Lithium polysulfide is easily generated by combining with lithium, and is dissolved and diffused in electrolyte to cause loss of active substances, so that the electrochemical performance of the material is reduced, and compared with the embodiment 1, the comparative example 2 has lower first discharge specific capacity, first coulombic efficiency and 200-cycle capacity retention rate.
