Description

Positive electrode of lithium-sulfur secondary battery
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of lithium-sulfur secondary batteries, in particular to a positive electrode of a lithium-sulfur secondary battery.
Background
The lithium-sulfur secondary battery is a high specific energy electrochemical energy storage system, mainly uses sulfur as a positive active substance, uses metallic lithium as a negative electrode, and uses an ether solution of lithium salt as an electrolyte. The theoretical specific capacity of the elemental sulfur is up to 1675mAh/g, which is 10 times of that of the layered lithium cobaltate cathode material. However, sulfur has poor conductivity, and a large amount of a conductive agent is added to make full use of sulfur, which is an active material in the electrode. More importantly, the discharge intermediate product of sulfur is a highly soluble polysulfide ion, which easily diffuses to the negative electrode to undergo a self-discharge reaction with lithium metal (i.e., a "shuttle effect"), resulting in a loss of active material and a lower coulombic efficiency. The discharge product of sulfur, lithium sulfide, is poor in both electrochemical activity and conductivity, and lithium sulfide deposited on inactive sites is not easily reused. The above reasons result in low utilization rate of active materials of lithium-sulfur secondary batteries, low coulombic efficiency, rapid capacity fading, and poor cycle performance. In order to improve the performance of the lithium-sulfur secondary battery, improvements are mainly made in the aspects of battery structure design, compounding of positive electrode materials, electrolyte additives, modification of negative electrode surfaces and the like. Among them, the compounding of positive electrode materials is being studied, and carriers of various components and structures are designed for supporting sulfur. For example, sulfur is supported by various porous carbon materials to improve the conductivity thereof, and a part of polysulfide ions can be adsorbed by the porous nature thereof to suppress the shuttle effect. In addition, because of strong polarity, oxide, sulfide and the like of transition metal can strongly adsorb polysulfide ions, so that the shuttle effect is better inhibited, wherein part of materials also have higher conductivity, and the conductivity of the sulfur positive electrode is improved. In these sulfur-containing cathode materials, the conductive additive and the polysulfide adsorbent tend to occupy a greater specific gravity, thereby reducing the specific capacity of the cathode as a whole. Positive electrode materials with lithium storage activity, such as lithium-containing transition metal oxides, can also be used to adsorb polysulfide ions and provide some capacity. For example, CN105529446A discloses a lithium-sulfur battery composite positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof, wherein a lithium storage material can bind polysulfide ions in a positive electrode region, thereby improving the utilization rate of sulfur. C. S.kim et al report that a composite positive electrode material composed of sulfur and lithium iron phosphate can improve the utilization rate of sulfur and the rate capability of a battery (c. -s.kim, et al, Electrochemistry Communications,2013,32, 35-38). However, the electron conductivity of the composite positive electrode composed of sulfur and lithium storage material is poor, a large amount of conductive carbon needs to be added, and the discharge product of sulfur is easy to accumulate on the surface of the lithium storage material and lose electrochemical activity, so that the cycle performance of the battery formed by the composite positive electrode is poor.
In the structure of a battery (electrode), many researches have been carried out to prepare porous carbon and other materials into a thin film to cover the surface of a sulfur-containing anode or directly coat the thin film on the surface of the sulfur-containing anode to form a double-layer or sulfur-concentration-gradient electrode. For example, CN103972467B discloses a multilayer composite positive electrode for a lithium-sulfur battery, which is composed of a first graphene film layer, a carbon/sulfur active material layer, a second graphene film layer and a polymer layer, wherein the second layer functions as a separator, increases electron and ion transport, and limits the shuttle of polysulfide ions. CN106207088A discloses a gradient multilayer sulfur positive electrode structure, in which the sulfur content of each layer in the multilayer structure is distributed in a gradient manner from inside to outside, the sulfur content of the innermost layer is the highest, the outermost layer does not contain sulfur, a diffusion space is provided for sulfur, the barrier effect on polysulfide ions is enhanced, and the polysulfide ions are limited in an electrode space as much as possible. CN108630890A discloses a lithium sulfur secondary battery anode structure composed of a loose porous layer, a conductive framework layer and a confinement layer covering the surface of an electrode, wherein the confinement layer on the surface of the electrode can limit the diffusion of polysulfide ions and inhibit the shuttle effect. The structure mainly utilizes the adsorption performance of materials such as porous carbon and the like, inhibits the dissolution and shuttle effects of polysulfide ions, and provides certain conductivity. However, the additional adsorption layer occupies a larger volume and mass, does not provide capacity per se, and inevitably reduces the mass specific energy and the volume energy density of the battery as a whole.
