Abstract

The invention discloses a C / Ti4O7 composite nanofiber based lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material. The lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material is compounded by elemental sulfur and C / Ti4O7 composite nanofiber, wherein the C / Ti4O7 composite nanofiber adopts a core-shell structure; and the Ti4O7 is taken as the core while porous carbon is taken as the shell. The preparation method comprises the steps of preparing the C / Ti4O7 composite nanofiber by an electrostatic spinning process; mixing the C / Ti4O7 composite nanofiber with the elemental sulfur; and putting the mixture into a sealed container and performing thermal treatment at a temperature of 150-155 DEG C for 12-24h to obtain the positive electrode material. The positive electrode material has a porous channel structure formed by the porous carbon, so that rapid polysulfide absorption can be realized, and the cycling life of the lithium-sulfur battery can be prolonged; and in addition, due to the high conductivity of Ti4O7, the utilization rate of sulfur is improved, so that the cycling performance of the lithium-sulfur battery is relatively high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electrode materials, in particular to a C / Ti-based 4 o 7 Composite nanofiber lithium-sulfur battery cathode material and preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the increasing environmental pollution and energy crisis, the development and application of high energy density, low-cost secondary batteries in renewable energy systems has gradually become the focus of research. Lithium-sulfur battery is a kind of secondary battery system under development with high energy density. It uses elemental sulfur or sulfur material as the positive electrode active material. Advantages such as cheap price. [0003] Due to the low conductivity of sulfur cathode materials in lithium-sulfur batteries and the easy formation of polysulfides during battery cycling, the utilization rate of sulfur active materials is low and the battery capacity fades sharply, resulting in poor battery cycle performance. The s...
