Problems solved by technology

This phenomenon, known as the shuttle effect, reduces the availability of sulfur active species
At the same time insoluble Li 2 S and Li 2 S 2 Deposited on the surface of the lithium negative electrode, which further deteriorates the performance of the lithium-sulfur battery; (3) the final product of the reaction, Li 2 S is also an electronic insulator and will be deposited on the sulfur electrode, while lithium ions migrate slowly in solid lithium sulfide, slowing down the electrochemical reaction kinetics; (4) sulfur and the final product Li 2 The density of S is different. When sulfur is lithiated, the volume expands by about 79%, which easily leads to Li 2 Pulverization of S, causing safety problems in lithium-sulfur batteries
The above deficiencies restrict the development of lithium-sulfur batteries, which is also a key issue that needs to be solved in current research on lithium-sulfur batteries.

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method for a boron-nitrogen-co-doped three-dimensional structured positive electrode material of a lithium-sulfur battery. The preparation method comprises the following steps of (1), adding graphite oxide into water for performing ultrasonic processing to form a graphene oxide suspension liquid; (2), adding ammonium hydroxide to the graphene oxide suspension liquid, and then adding sodium borohydride to the graphene oxide suspension liquid to obtain three-dimensional boron-nitrogen-co-doped graphene; (3), adding the three-dimensional boron-nitrogen-co-doped graphene obtained in the step (2) and ketjen black into N-methyl pyrrolidone for performing an ultrasonic reaction to form a suspension liquid; (4), adding sulfur to the N-methyl pyrrolidone for performing an ultrasonic reaction until the elemental sulfur is fully dissolved to form a suspension liquid; and (5), mixing the two kinds of suspension liquid obtained in the step (4) and the step (3), and then adding distilled water to obtain the three-dimensional structured positive electrode material of the lithium-sulfur battery. Due to sulfur adsorption by the synergistic effects of boron atoms and nitrogen atoms in the boron-nitrogen-co-doped graphene, the shuttle effect is lowered, so that the cycling life of the lithium-sulfur battery is prolonged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the synthesis of nanometer materials, in particular to a preparation method of a cathode material of a lithium-sulfur battery. Background technique [0002] A lithium-sulfur battery is a battery system in which metallic lithium is used as the negative electrode and elemental sulfur is used as the positive electrode. Lithium-sulfur batteries have two discharge platforms (about 2.4V and 2.1V), but their electrochemical reaction mechanism is relatively complicated. Lithium-sulfur batteries have the advantages of high specific energy (2600Wh / kg), high specific capacity (1675mAh / g), and low cost, and are considered to be a promising new generation of batteries. However, at present, there are problems such as low utilization of active materials, low cycle life and poor safety, which seriously restrict the development of lithium-sulfur batteries. The main reasons for the above problems are as follows: (1) elemental sulfur is an elec...
