Problems solved by technology

Although the good conductivity of graphene can effectively improve the utilization rate of elemental sulfur, its large specific surface area leads to direct contact between sulfur and electrolyte, resulting in the dissolution of active substances.
Thus, the shuttle effect will affect the cycle life of the battery

Abstract

The invention discloses a sulfur-activated carbon / graphene composite material and an application thereof. The composite material is formed by loading sulfur on an activated carbon / graphene composite material or a material; and the sulfur-activated carbon / graphene composite material comprises the following components in percentage by mass: 10%-90% of sulfur and 10%-90% of activated carbon / graphene composite material. The sulfur-activated carbon / graphene composite material is used for a lithium-sulfur battery, so that, on one hand, the weight of the battery can be greatly reduced, the internal resistance of the battery is reduced, the conductivity of an electrode material is improved and the specific capacity and the overall performance of the battery are improved; and on the other hand, the shuttle effect is reduced, the influence of volume expansion of the sulfur on the performance of the battery is reduced to a certain extent and the utilization rate of the active material is improved. Under the same test condition, the overall performance of the lithium-sulfur battery assembled by the composite material as a positive electrode material is obviously superior to that of the lithium-sulfur battery assembled by the similar positive electrode material as the positive electrode material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sulfur-activated carbon / graphene composite material and its application, belonging to the field of electrochemical energy storage. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of space technology, mobile communications, missiles, aerospace and other fields, as well as the increasing concern of modern people on energy crisis and environmental protection issues, the research and development of lithium secondary batteries with high energy density has aroused widespread interest ( Inorg. Chem. Front., 2015, 2, 1059). Lithium-sulfur batteries are considered to be one of the most promising new multi-electron reaction secondary battery systems. The theoretical specific capacity of elemental sulfur and lithium reaction is 1675 mAh g-1, and the mass specific energy reaches 2600 Wh kg-1, which is much higher than the current traditional lithium-ion secondary battery materials. At the same time, sulfur has the advantages o...
