Problems solved by technology

However, studies have shown that S x Se y Te z @Polyacrylonitrile (x+y+z=1) is not compatible with the lithium metal negative electrode electrolyte system, and it will still produce soluble lithium polysulfide in the ether electrolyte, destroying the solid phase reaction mechanism and causing positive electrode capacity Severe attenuation (Weet.al., Metal-sulfur battery cathodes based on PAN-sulfur composites, J.Am.Chem.Soc.2015,137,12143)

Embodiment 1

[0043] The lithium salt is lithium bisfluorosulfonimide, the ether compound is ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, and the compound containing a cyclic C=O structure is ethylene carbonate. Wherein, the concentration of lithium bisfluorosulfonyl imide is 1 mol / L, and ethylene carbonate accounts for 15 wt% of the total mass of ethylene glycol dimethyl ether and ethylene carbonate.

[0044] Use the above electrolyte, metal lithium negative electrode, vulcanized polyacrylonitrile positive electrode, and Celgard2400 diaphragm to assemble a lithium-sulfur battery. The specific operations are as follows:

[0045] Mix vulcanized polyacrylonitrile, carbon nanotubes and polyvinylidene fluoride uniformly in N-methylpyrrolidone at a mass ratio of 8:1:1 to obtain a slurry with a concentration of 30%;

[0046] The slurry was uniformly coated on carbon-coated aluminum foil, dried at 60°C for 12 hours, and then cut into discs with a diameter of 11mm for button batteries or pole pieces with a shap...

Abstract

The invention discloses a lithium-sulfur secondary battery with high cycling stability and high coulombic efficiency. The lithium-sulfur secondary battery comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a diaphragm and an electrolyte, wherein the electrolyte comprises a lithium salt, an ether compound and a compound containing a cyclic C=O structure; and a general formula of an active substance of the positive electrode is SxSeyTez@polyacrylonitrile, x+y+z=1, 0.6<=x<=1, 0<=y<=0.2, and 0<=z<=0.2. According to the lithium-sulfur secondary battery disclosed by the invention, the SxSeyTez@polyacrylonitrile is used as a positive electrode active material, and a novel ether-containing electrolyte matched with the SxSeyTez@polyacrylonitrile is developed, so that a solid-phase reaction mechanism in a sulfur conversion process is ensured, a shuttle effect is reduced, the loss of a sulfur positive electrode active material and the corrosion of a lithium metal negative electrode are greatly reduced, and the finally assembled lithium-sulfur secondary battery has excellent cycling stability and high coulombic efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of high specific energy secondary batteries, in particular to a lithium-sulfur secondary battery with high cycle stability and high coulombic efficiency. Background technique [0002] The theoretical specific capacity of lithium-sulfur battery is 2600Wh / kg. It is considered to be a promising next-generation high-energy lithium battery system, which is expected to solve the problems of "mileage anxiety" of new energy vehicles. The two-electron conversion process of sulfur in traditional lithium-sulfur batteries goes through the "solid-liquid-solid" reaction pathway. Due to the intrinsic electronic insulation of elemental sulfur and slow kinetic characteristics, it is usually necessary to introduce a conductive substrate (such as carbon) to form a composite positive electrode. In addition, chemical reactions inevitably occur between nucleophilic lithium polysulfide intermediates and electrophilic carbonates, s...
