Problems solved by technology

[0003] But at present, lithium-sulfur batteries still face many technical problems: first, the insulation of elemental sulfur seriously affects electron conduction; second, during the charging and discharging process, a part of the intermediate product lithium polysulfide is easily soluble in the electrolyte, and shuttles back and forth between positive and negative. It is easy to have a side reaction with the negative electrode lithium and deposit on the lithium sheet, which is the so-called "shuttle effect", which reduces the cycle stability of the battery; third, in the process of charging and discharging, the cyclic S in the positive electrode material 8 Dissolved in the electrolyte solution to open the ring to become a long chain Li 2 S 6 , volume expansion will occur, and the expansion rate reaches 80%, which will seriously damage the structural stability of the positive electrode material and affect the specific capacity and stability of the battery.

Abstract

The invention discloses a biological porous carbon-based cathode material of a lithium-sulphur battery. By taking a walnut shell as a biological carbon source, the walnut shell is subjected to thermal pyrolysis at a high temperature to obtain a bio-coke; and then activation reaction on the bio-coke is carried out by adopting KOH, so that microporous channels are effectively enriched and the mesopore size is adjusted. The obtained microporous bio-carbon material has extremely high specific surface and has a developed pore structure; after the material is supported with sulphur, excellent electrochemical performance and stability can be shown; moreover, the sources of the related raw materials are wide, the preparation process is simple, and the material is suitable for being popularized and applied.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium-sulfur batteries, and relates to a biological porous carbon-based lithium-sulfur battery cathode material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Biochar is a solid product produced by thermal cracking of biological organic materials (biomass) in an anoxic or anaerobic environment. It can be used as a high-quality energy material, and its sources can be seen everywhere. If biochar is used to turn waste into treasure, it will not only alleviate the energy shortage, but also provide a certain solution to climate change and environmental pollution to a certain extent. The developed biochar The pore structure has good application prospects in the field of lithium-sulfur batteries. [0003] But at present, lithium-sulfur batteries still face many technical problems: first, the insulation of elemental sulfur seriously affects electron conduction; second, during the charging and ...
