纳米TiO2构筑于多通道炭纤维实现室温钠-硫电池中多硫化物的高效吸附
Incorporating TiO2 nanoparticles into the multichannels of electro-spun carbon fibers to increase the adsorption of polysulfides in room temperature sodium-sulfur batteries
摘要
Abstract
With the rapid development of electric vehicles and large-scale power grids,lithium-ion batteries inevitably face the problem that their limited energy density and high cost cannot meet the growing demand.Room temperature sodium-sulfur(RT Na-S)batteries,which have the potential to replace lithium-ion batteries,have become a focus of attention.However,the challenging problem of their poor cycling performance cause by the"shuttle effect"of the reaction intermediates(sodium polysulfides)needs to be addressed.We report a method to incorporate TiO2 nano particles into the multichannels of electrospun carbon fibers(TiO2@MC-CFs)to stabilize the sulfur compounds and produce high-performance RT Na-S batteries.The TiO2@MCCFs were prepared by elec-trospinning followed by heat treatment,and were infiltrated by molten sulfur to fabricate S/TiO2@MCCF cathode materials.The ad-dition of the TiO2 nanoparticles increases the affinity of cathode materials for poly sulfides and promotes the conversion of poly sulf-ides to lower order products.This was verified by DFT calculations.A S/TiO2@MCCF cathode with a S content of 54%has im-proved electrochemical rate and cycling performance,with a specific capacity of 445.1 mAh g-1 after 100 cycles at 0.1 A g-1 and a nearly 100%Coulombic efficiency.Even at 2 A g-1,the cathode still has a capacity of 300.5 mAh g-1 after 500 cycles.This work provides a new way to construct high performance RT Na-S battery cathodes.关键词
