Abstract

The invention discloses a lithium-sulfur secondary battery system. The system comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode and electrolyte, wherein an active substance of the positive electrode is a carbon-sulfur composite material, the negative electrode adopts a metal lithium plate, the electrolyte is high-salinity non-aqueous electrolyte, and the high-salinity non-aqueous electrolyte comprises lithium salt, sodium salt or lithium-sodium mixed salt and non-aqueous organic solvent; and the mol ratio of the lithium salt or the lithium-sodium mixed salt and the non-aqueous organic solvent is 2 to 10 mol / L. The lithium-sulfur secondary battery system has the following remarkable advantages that since the electrolyte system can effectively prevent multi-sulfur ions of the lithium-sulfur battery from being dissolved in the electrolyte in the charging and discharging processes, the multi-sulfur ions which are dissolved in the electrolyte can be prevented from producing a shuttle effect at the last stage of the charging, the over-charge phenomenon can be prevented, and the coulombic efficiency can be improved to be more than 99 percent. Therefore, the cycling performance of the battery also can be greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of batteries, in particular to a lithium-sulfur secondary battery system. Background technique [0002] The current commercial use of lithium-ion battery cathode materials is mainly concentrated on transition metal lithium intercalation oxides, including cobalt, iron, nickel, manganese oxides and their doping compounds, but such compounds are limited by their own theoretical capacity. At present, the theoretical energy density of the commercialized system is around 600Wh / Kg. Although the industrial level continues to improve, the current power battery using this as the cathode material can achieve a maximum of 200Wh / Kg, and it is expected to reach 300Wh / Kg in the future, but the room for improvement has been limited. very limited. The development of future electric vehicles urgently requires a cathode material with higher energy density. [0003] Lithium-sulfur batteries due to their high specific capacity...
