含天然模板生物质制备多孔炭材料及其在高能锂电池中的应用

Rechargeable lithium sulfur battery and rechargeable lithium air (oxgen) battery, which are environmental friendly high energy batteries, have wide application prospects. The main challenges are their poor cycle life. Designing and preparing the porous carbon matrix, and then using them to fabricate highly effective reaction interface constitutes will play an important role to improve cell performance. In this study, based on the perfect structure of the biomass with natural templates, we are going to focus on developing novel porous carbons with favorable pore structure and surface composition which are effective for redox reaction in cathodes of lithium sulfur battery and rechargeable lithium air (oxgen) battery, revealing the forming process and mechanism of pore structure and surface functional groups, further developing the pore-creating model of the carbon materials using biomass with natural templates as precursor and establishing the theory in terms of this carbon microstructure formation. Influence of the specific energy, specific power, cycle life of lithium sulfur battery or lithium air battery on pore structure, degree of graphitization, functional groups of the carbon materials will be studied, and its energy storage behavior and mechanism will be revealed. Stable sulfur cathode and air cathode will be fabricated using these new carbon materials, by providing perfect interfaces of the electrochemical reaction in these two rechargeable batteries. Novel way to improve cycle performance of the lithium battery (lithium sulfur battery or lithium air battery) and its mechanism should be discovered. Through this item, a kind of novel materials for high energy lithium battery will be developed, and a new application field of the biomass (such as animal bone and scale) will be opened up.
