Problems solved by technology

Although carbon / sulfur composites have made some progress, the sulfur content in the composites is still low and cannot provide high specific capacity
In addition, the preparation of high-quality microporous / mesoporous carbon materials is complex and often requires heat treatment, which consumes a lot of energy and is not conducive to energy conservation and environmental protection.
However, using the metal coating process to obtain nanometer metal coated sulfur composite electrode materials, there are no relevant preparation methods and process reports at home and abroad.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a nanometer metal-coated sulfur composite material and its application as a lithium-sulfur battery cathode material. (2) Background technology [0002] As a new generation of "green" secondary batteries, lithium batteries have the characteristics of high open circuit voltage, high energy density, long cycle life, and environmental friendliness. They have broad application prospects in portable appliances, electric vehicles, and energy storage systems. At present, limited by the low specific capacity of positive electrode materials, lithium batteries still cannot meet the requirements of high power and high capacity fields. Therefore, the development of high specific energy and high specific power positive electrode materials is of great significance. Elemental sulfur has a very high theoretical specific capacity of 1672mAh / g, and its theoretical specific energy is as high as 2600Wh / kg, which can actually reach 500~800 Wh / kg...
