Description

Cobalt/carbon nanotube/sulfur particle microcapsule composite material, preparation method thereof, lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode and lithium-sulfur battery
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of battery composite materials, and particularly relates to a cobalt/carbon nanotube/sulfur particle microcapsule composite material, a preparation method thereof, a lithium-sulfur battery anode and a lithium-sulfur battery.
Background
Since the 21 st century, global energy crisis and environmental problems have become more serious, and human beings need to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels, so that the development of new environmentally friendly energy sources and efficient energy storage systems is urgently needed. With the increase of energy consumption and global warming, a novel energy storage system, namely a lithium ion secondary battery, with high energy density, low cost, no pollution and long service life is produced. At present, the actual specific capacity of commercial lithium ion batteries is less than 200m Ah/g, the specific energy is less than 300Wh/kg, the development of industries such as electric automobiles, electronic products, smart grids and the like is severely restricted, and researchers are promoted to develop more reasonable and effective battery energy systems.
The lithium-sulfur battery (Li-S battery) has high theoretical specific energy (2600 W.h/kg) and high theoretical specific capacity (1675 mA.h/g), and the sulfur element has the advantages of rich content in the earth crust, low price, no toxicity, no pollution and the like, so the Li-S battery is considered to be one of novel energy storage batteries with the greatest prospect of improving the energy density.
The most commonly used positive electrode material in Li-S batteries is elemental sulfur, which is mainly cyclic S in nature8The molecule is present. Different from the lithium intercalation and deintercalation reaction of the traditional lithium ion battery, the lithium sulfur battery adopts sulfur or a sulfur-containing compound as a positive electrode and lithium as a negative electrode, and realizes the mutual conversion of electric energy and chemical energy through the fracture generation of a sulfur-sulfur bond. During discharge, lithium ions migrate from the negative electrode to the positive electrode, and the positive electrode active material is broken in a sulfur-sulfur bond and combined with lithium ions to produce Li2S; upon charging, Li2S is electrolyzed, and the released lithium ions are returned to be negativeAnd a pole, deposited as metallic lithium or intercalated into the negative electrode material. The chemical process of sulfur is complex and there is a series of reversible reactions and disproportionation reactions. During the discharge, the S-S bond starts to break and continues to react with Li+Combined, successively reduced to Li2S8、Li2S6、Li2S4Long-chain polysulfides that are equally soluble in organic electrolytes; as the reaction proceeds, these long-chain polysulfides are further reduced to short-chain polysulfides Li which are insoluble in the electrolyte2S2And Li2S, depositing on the surface of the positive electrode and precipitating in a solid form. When Li is present2When S covers the entire electrode, the voltage drops rapidly, resulting in termination of the discharge. During this kinetic process, a series of soluble polysulfide intermediates, LiS, are producedx(x>2)。
Although the lithium-sulfur battery has extremely high theoretical specific capacity and energy density, the utilization rate of active substances is low, the capacity attenuation is rapid, the cycle life is short, and a certain gap is left between the capacity theoretical value and the capacity theoretical value. The specific reasons are as follows: (1) during discharge, sulfur reacts with metallic lithium to form lithium polysulfide Li which is readily soluble in the electrolyte2Sx(2<x<8) And insoluble Li2S2With Li2And S. The dissolved lithium polysulfide generates redox shuttle reaction between the anode and the cathode to cause overcharge and corrosion and pulverization of the lithium cathode, so that the coulombic efficiency is low and the lithium loss is serious in the circulating process; insoluble Li2S2And Li2S is unevenly covered on the sulfur anode, so that the conductivity of the anode is deteriorated, and finally, the service life of the battery is reduced; (2) elemental sulfur and its final product have very poor conductivity. Elemental sulfur is an electronic and ionic insulator at room temperature and has a conductivity of only 5X 10-30S/cm, when used as an electrode material, the activated carbon is difficult to activate and the utilization rate is low; (3) volume expansion and contraction are carried out in the charging and discharging processes, and the volume expansion is about 80% after complete lithiation, so that sulfur is separated from a conductive framework, the battery structure is seriously damaged, and the capacity attenuation is serious; (4) the SEI layer is repeatedly formed-cracked, and the metallic lithium and the electrolyte are continuously consumed; (5) non-uniformity of the negative electrode lithium metal surface may cause lithium dendrites to pierce the separator, causing electricityThe short circuit in the pool is invalid, which brings serious potential safety hazard.
