[0004] Chinese patent (Application No. 200910111579.8) discloses an ordered mesoporous carbon-sulfur nanocomposite cathode material and its preparation method. Since the prepared mesoporous carbon has a very close double-pore distribution, it is easy to mix ions and electrolytes during sulfur filling. The transmission channel of the active substance is blocked, resulting in a low utilization rate of the active substance sulfur, which limits its development
[0005] Chinese patent (Application No. 201010513866.4) discloses a method for preparing cathode materials for lithium-sulfur batteries by sputtering. However, due to the expensive equipment used, its industrialized mass production is limited.
[0006] Chinese patent (Application No. 200910241977.1) discloses a lithium-sulfur battery cathode material containing a sulfur-containing conductive polymer-sulfur compound. Because the thiophene used in the preparation process is not safe and environmentally friendly, its development is limited.
[0007] Chinese patent (Application No. 201010181391.3) discloses a method for preparing a hollow carbon nanotube filled with sulfur cathode material, but because it needs to be operated under high temperature and high pressure conditions, the process is relatively cumbersome, which also limits its development
[0008] In summary, the existing lithium-sulfur battery cathode materials (composite of sulfur and conductive materials) need to be improved both in terms of product performance and commercial value.

Abstract

The invention relates to a carbon-sulfur composite for positive electrodes of lithium-sulfur batteries and its preparation and application. The composite includes carbon materials and elemental sulfur, wherein the carbon materials have a gradient ordered tertiary pore structure, and the pore diameter of the tertiary channels is The distribution range is that micropores less than 2nm are used as primary pores, small mesopores around 3-10nm are used as secondary pores, and large mesopores of 10-30nm are used as tertiary pores. The secondary pores are located on the pore wall of the tertiary pores. The primary pores are located on the pore wall of the secondary pores; the elemental sulfur is filled in the pores of the carbon material, and the elemental sulfur accounts for 10-80wt% of the total amount of the compound. The carbon-sulfur composite is used in lithium-sulfur secondary batteries, exhibits high sulfur utilization rate and good cycle stability, and has the advantages of simple preparation process, good repeatability, low cost and microscopic controllability.
