Problems solved by technology

At the same time, Song Zhicui et al. reported in the Journal of Power Sources (2019, 421, 23-31) a functional interlayer by rationally designing N / P co-doped carbon as a sulfur carrier and a high-performance lithium-sulfur battery , realizing the synergistic closure of polysulfides, although the lithium-sulfur battery has the advantages of high energy density and low material cost, it suffers from poor cycle life and low Coulombic efficiency due to the shuttle effect of soluble polysulfides
[0005] Although the existing patents and literature reports of lithium-sulfur battery cathode materials show good cycle performance, the preparation methods of the materials are relatively complicated, the uniformity of pore formation is difficult to control, and the pores inside cannot bind sulfur well.
At the same time, it is also difficult for lithium ions to enter and exit, preventing their migration and dissolution into the electrolyte solution, and the cycle rate of the carbon-sulfur complex is poor.
Furthermore, the cycle stability of carbon-sulfur complexes is not good, which cannot meet the actual needs.

Abstract

The invention provides a nitrogen-doped lithium sulfur battery cathode material, a preparation method and an application. Sodium chloride, melamine and starch are mixed in water; precursor gel is obtained through gelatinization reaction; the precursor gel is freeze-dried, baked at high temperature, soaked and washed; and sodium chloride is removed to obtain nitrogen-doped porous carbon powder. Inorganic salt sodium chloride is added as a pore forming agent, which enables the product to have a uniform micro nano pore structure and high specific surface area. Finally, sulfur particles are loadedby sulfur fumigation to obtain a nitrogen-doped porous carbon-loaded sulfur composite material as a lithium sulfur battery cathode material. The porous structure of the composite material provides alarge number of active sites, which helps to bind polysulfides and inhibit the shuttle effect of polysulfides. The material has good cycle stability and high specific capacity when used as a lithium sulfur battery cathode material. In addition, the preparation method of nitrogen-doped porous carbon has the advantages of mild process conditions, simple steps, cheap raw materials and easy large-scale production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of new energy materials, and relates to a preparation method of an inorganic micro-nano carbon powder, in particular to a nitrogen-doped carbon-lithium-sulfur battery cathode material, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background technique [0002] Lithium-sulfur battery is a secondary battery with metal lithium as the negative electrode and elemental sulfur as the positive electrode. During discharge, the negative electrode reacts as lithium loses electrons and generates lithium ions. The positive electrode reaction is sulfur combined with electrons and lithium ions to form sulfide. The potential difference between the reaction with the negative electrode is the working voltage provided by the lithium-sulfur battery. The theoretical specific capacity of lithium-sulfur battery is as high as 1675mAh g -1 , which is much larger than the currently used commercial secondary batteries. In recent ...
