Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of composite materials, and particularly relates to a composite diaphragm for a lithium-sulfur battery, a preparation method of the composite diaphragm and the lithium-sulfur battery.

Background

Environmental pollution due to the heavy use of fossil fuels is becoming more serious, and green and clean energy is urgently needed and higher requirements are made on energy storage technology. The theoretical capacity of a commercial lithium ion battery is limited by graphite and transition metal oxide, so that the requirements of people on high capacity, small volume and light weight cannot be met, and a novel high-energy rechargeable battery is urgently needed to be researched. Among the new batteries, the lithium-sulfur battery (Li-S) has a theoretical specific capacity of up to 1675mAh/g⁻¹The energy density was 2600wh/kg (Chemical Engineering Journal,2019,

355: 390-398), is one of the very attractive candidates. In addition, the anode material has rich sulfur reserves, low cost and environmental protection, and the advantages of the anode material are further increased.

The lithium-sulfur battery mainly comprises a sulfur positive electrode material, an electrolyte, a diaphragm and a lithium negative electrode material, and main reactions in the lithium-sulfur battery can be summarized as follows: s₈+16Li↔8Li₂S, the ideal discharge process is that ring-S8 is reduced and decomposed into high-grade lithium polysulfide chain Li₂S_x（6<x is less than or equal to 8) and then further reduced into lower lithium polysulfide Li₂S_x（2<x is less than or equal to 6) to finally form insoluble and insulating lithium sulfide Li₂And S. The commercialization of lithium-sulfur batteries still has some problems, the most important of which is the shuttling effect of polysulfidesAnd the growth of lithium dendrites.

The shuttling effect of polysulfide means that an intermediate polysulfide generated in a positive electrode reaction is easily dissolved and even passes through a diaphragm to reach a negative electrode, so that not only is the loss of effective active material sulfur caused, but also the corrosion of negative electrode lithium is caused, and further, the sulfur utilization rate, the cycle performance and the rate capability of a lithium-sulfur battery are possibly low. The common solutions to this problem are: a functional interlayer is added in the battery, or one or more functional coatings are added on the surface of a commercial separator to form a composite separator, so that the shuttling of polysulfides is inhibited through physical barrier and chemical adsorption, or the conversion of polysulfides is promoted by using catalysis. However, the above approaches are still based and fundamental on commercial membranes.

At present, the battery diaphragm which is relatively mature in commercial application is a polyolefin porous diaphragm, and comprises a polypropylene diaphragm, a polyethylene diaphragm or a polypropylene/polyethylene/polypropylene three-layer composite diaphragm. Commercial polyolefin separators have several serious drawbacks: firstly, the thermal stability is poor, the size of the battery shrinks greatly at high temperature, the battery is easy to burn at high temperature, and great hidden danger is caused to the safety of the battery; secondly, it has limited barrier effect against polysulfides, resulting in poor cycling stability of the battery; in addition, the method has the defects of being incapable of effectively inhibiting the growth of lithium dendrite, poor in wettability to electrolyte and the like.

The silicon dioxide material is high temperature resistant, has enough strength to achieve the effect of inhibiting the growth of lithium dendrites, and the aramid fiber is a high temperature resistant fiber material with higher mechanical strength. Zhang N et al developed a novel composite electrolyte membrane (adv. Energy mater. 2018, 8, 1703124) prepared by mixing mesoporous SiO₂The nano-sheet is formed by immersing the PP membrane surface in an organic liquid electrolyte after suction filtration. Chinese patent No. CN107170942A discloses a method for forming a film by using a non-solvent phase-induced conversion method, which comprises preparing a casting solution from aramid fiber, a pore-forming agent, and an inorganic material, coating the casting solution on the surface of a polyolefin diaphragm by blade coating. However, the coating layer may be peeled off during repeated charging and discharging of the battery, which may affect the performance of the battery. In addition, the composite separator is still based on a polyolefin separator, and cannot be fundamentally usedThe battery safety problem is solved.

Therefore, a composite diaphragm for a lithium-sulfur battery is needed to replace a polyolefin diaphragm so as to solve the problems of poor thermal stability and poor cycling stability of the existing lithium-sulfur battery diaphragm.
