Problems solved by technology

But lithium-sulfur batteries still have many challenging problems to be solved
The conductivity of the active substance sulfur is poor, the volume of the electrode material expands during the charge and discharge process, and the discharge intermediate product lithium polysulfide is easily soluble in the electrolyte, resulting in the loss of the active material and the shuttle effect, which eventually leads to a decrease in battery capacity and a shortened life. Bottlenecks in the commercial development of sulfur batteries
[0003] The prior art of lithium-sulfur battery cathode materials is disclosed. CN107633959A discloses a preparation method of lithium-sulfur cathode materials. An in-situ nitrogen-doped carbon fiber / magnesium oxide composite material is obtained by electrospinning. In-situ nitrogen-doped nanoporous carbon fiber electrode material is obtained by acid treatment and corrosion. The electrode material is obtained by grinding, slurrying and coating film. The preparation process is cumbersome, and conductive agents, binders, etc. need to be added. The introduction of these inactive electrode materials affects the electrochemical performance of lithium-sulfur batteries.
