Sulfur Immobilized in Hierarchically Porous Structured Carbon as Cathodes for Lithium–Sulfur Battery with Improved Electrochemical Performance

In order to overcome the main obstacles for lithium–sulfur batteries, such as poor conductivity of sulfur, polysulfide intermediate dissolution, and large volume change generated during the cycle process, a hard‐template route is developed to synthesize large‐surface area carbon with abundant micropores and mesopores to immobilize sulfur species. The microstructures of the C/S hybrids are investigated using field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. The large surface and porous structure can effectively alleviate large strain due to the lithiation/delithiation process. More importantly, the micropores can effectively confine small molecules of sulfur in the form of S_2–4, avoiding loss of active S species and dissolution of high‐order lithium polysulfides. The porous C/S hybrids show significantly enhanced electrochemical performance with good cycling stability, high specific capacity, and rate capability. The C/S‐39 hybrid with an optimal content of 39 wt% S shows a reversible capacity of 780 mA h g^?1 after 100 cycles at the current density of 100 mA g^?1. Even at a current density of 5 A g^?1, the reversible capacity of C/S‐39 can still maintain at 420 mA h g^?1 after 60 cycles. This strategy offers a new way for solving long‐term reversibility obstacle and designing new cathode electrode architectures.     

Synthesis, characterization and electrochemical behavior of polypyrrole/carbon nanotube composites using organometallic-functionalized carbon nanotubes

Thorn-like, organometallic-functionalized carbon nanotubes were successfully developed via a novel microwave hydrothermal route. The organometallic complex with methyl orange and iron (III) chloride served as reactive seed template, resulting in the oriented polymerization of pyrrole on the modified carbon nanotubes without the assistance of other oxidants. Morphological and structural characterizations of the carbon nanotube/methyl orange-iron (III) chloride and polypyrrole/carbon nanotube composites were examined using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The electrochemical property of the polypyrrole/carbon nanotube composite was elucidated by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge. A specific capacitance of 304 F g⁻¹ was obtained within the potential range of −0.5-0.5 V in 1 M KCl solution.     

Preparation of porous carbon spheres from porous starch

Porous carbon spheres were prepared through two steps: (a) coating a Na₂SnO₃ or Na₂SiO₃ protective layer onto the surface of porous starch, and then (b) carbonizing the products. The carbon spheres were characterized with X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The porous carbon spheres inherited the morphology and texture of the porous starch during carbonization. A mechanism for the morphology preservation of the porous starch is proposed. The electrochemical performance of carbon spheres as anode material of lithium ion battery was detected. It showed that the carbon spheres maintain a specific capacity of 513 mAh/g after 50 cycles.     

DTT-doped MWCNT coating for checking shuttle effect of lithium-sulfur battery

In order to improve the rate and reversible capacity of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery, a reagent of dithiothreitol (DTT) was utilized to check the dissolution and shuttle of long-chain lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) by cutting the disulfide bond (–S–S– bonds) in them. The slurry of DTT-doped multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was coated on the surface of sulfur cathode as a shield to slice the long-chain LiPSs to short-chain ones for checking the dissolution and migration of LiPSs to lithium anode. The morphology and structure of the electrodes were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The electrochemical performance was tested by galvanostatic charge-discharge, cyclic voltammetry (CV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The initial discharge capacity of S-DTT- carbon nanotube paper (CNTP) electrode reached 1670 and 949 mAh/g at 0.05 and 2 C respectively with a coulombic efficiency of over 99%. The electrode maintained a reversible specific capacity of 949 mAh/g after 45 cycles at 2 C. This suggested that the DTT-doped MWCNT coating can restrain shuttle effect and improve the rate and capacity of Li-S battery. The S-DTT-CNTP electrode not only accommodates the volume expansion but also provides stable electronics and ions channels.     

Performance of C/C electric double layer capacitors with coal-based active carbon electrodes

Coal-based active carbon was prepared and used as electrodes of electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs). The performance of EDLCs using active carbon electrodes with different pore structure was studied, including cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. With an increase of sodium hydrate/coal ratio, the pore structure of active carbon is greatly improved, resulting in larger double-layer capacitance. The capacitance of asymmetric EDLC is up to 65.98 F/g. Moreover, it is found that different pore structure of active carbon is necessary for positive and negative electrodes. Asymmetric EDLC not only exhibits high capacitance but also shows excellent charge-discharge performance, suggesting that it is very suitable and promising to design electrode materials for supercapacitors.
