锂硫电池用玉米苞叶基活性炭/硫复合正极材料的电化学性能
Electrochemical performance of activated carbon derived from corn bracts / sulfur composite cathode material for lithium-sulfur batteries
摘要
Abstract
Lithium sulfur batteries are considered to be the most promising secondary battery because of its high theoretical specific capacity (1675 mA·h·g?1). However, the sulfur cathode faces the challenges, such as poor conductivity, low utilization of sulfur and poor structure stability of cathode. Biomass-based porous carbon, with cheap and accessible agricultural waste corn bracts as raw material, was prepared by chemical activation with KOH, and then composited with sublimate sulfur through modelling-fused method to form sulfur/carbon composite. The microscopic structure and morphology of the composites were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, and BET. The results show that the biomass-based porous carbon material possesses lamellar structure, which is similar to graphene, and abundant mesoporous structure on the surface of carbon. Furthermore, sulfur particles homogeneously distribute in the carbon conductive network. In addition, the electrochemical properties were studied by galvanostatic charge-discharge tests and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results show that the battery possesses high discharge capacity and good cycle-life performance. The main reasons are as follow: the porous carbon structure like graphene, enhancing conductivity of sulfur cathode; the huge specific surface area which make electrochemical reaction sites increased, improving the utilization of sulfur.关键词
