Abstract
Lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) are promising energy-storage devices, but are limited to rapid capacity decay due to the serious lithium polysulfide shuttling effect. Heteroatoms doped porous carbon holds great potential in LSBs cathode because of its high specific surface area, ample pore size and excellent electrical conductivity. Simple synthesis of porous carbon is crucial for practical application of LSBs. Herein, we fabricate an N, P co-doped porous carbon (NPPC) by one-step solid-state pyrolysis of the mixture of bio-wastes (peanut meal) and potassium hydroxide. The NPPC displays a hierarchically porous structure with high specific surface area (2090 m2/g). As a result, the S/NPPC shows a high initial reversible capacity of 1406 mAh g−1 at 0.1 C and excellent cycling performance (512 mAh g−1 at 3 C after 1000 cycles). This work develops a simple method to convert abandoned bio-wastes into ideal LSBs cathode materials.
锂硫电池是一种很有前途的储能设备,但由于多硫化锂的穿梭效应严重,其容量衰减速度快。杂原子掺杂多孔碳具有比表面积高、孔径大、导电性好等优点,在lbs阴极中具有很大的应用潜力。多孔碳的简单合成对lbs的实际应用至关重要。本文以生物废弃物(花生粕)和氢氧化钾为原料,采用一步固体热解法制备了N, P共掺杂多孔碳(NPPC)。NPPC具有高比表面积(2090 m2/g)的分层多孔结构。结果表明,S/NPPC在0.1℃下具有1406 mAh g−1的高初始可逆容量,并且在1000次循环后具有优异的循环性能(在3℃下512 mAh g−1)。本工作开发了一种将废弃生物废弃物转化为理想的lsb正极材料的简单方法。
