分别对单质硫和PABTH (polyanthra [1 ,9 ,8 -b,c,d,e][4 ,10 ,5 -b ,c ,d ,e ]bis-[1,6,6a(6a-S)trithia]pentalene)在PEO (polyethylene oxide)基聚合物电解质中的电化学性能进行了研究. 研究发现单质硫和PABTH在PEO基聚合物电解质中都存在放电产物溶解现象, 说明醚基电解液即使以聚合物形式存在(如PEO基聚合物电解质)也不能有效抑制硫电极放电产物的溶解损失. 因此, 必须设计合成具有特定结构的电解质溶剂, 以抑制硫电极放电产物的溶解. 另外, 硫及有机硫化物在PEO基聚合物电解质中的利用率较低, 这主要是由于硫及有机硫化物不是离子导体, Li在硫及有机硫化物中的扩散系数较低, 同时, 传输Li的PEO分子量较大, Li不能被有效传输至材料颗粒的内部. 因此, 全固态聚合物电解质不适合锂硫二次电池, 液态小分子电解质溶剂更有利于锂硫二次电池发挥其高比容量.

The electrochemical performances of S8 and polyanthra [1 ,9 ,8 -b,c,d,e][4 ,10 ,5 -b ,c ,d , e ]bis-[1,6,6a(6a-SIV)trithia]pentalene (PABTH) in PEO-based polymer electrolyte are studied. It s found that there are phenomena of the solution of reduction products in the discharging process for Li/PEO-based polymer electrolyte/S8 cell and Li/PEO-based polymer electrolyte/PABTH cell. It suggests that ether-based electrolytes even in the form of polymer (such as PEO-based Polymer Electrolytes) can t alleviate the loss of active material in sulfur electrode for the dissolution of its reduction products. For alleviating the solution of reduction production, designing electrolyte solvent with a special structure is necessary. Moreover, preliminary investigation on discharge capacity of the Li/PEO-based polymer electrolyte/S8 cell and PABTH/ PEO20LiTFSI/Li cell show that the utilization of the active material is lower than that in liquid electrolyte. It due to that sulfur and PABTH isn t ionic conductor, and the diffusivity values of Li in sulfur and PABTH are very low. PEO molecular with a large volume can t penetrate into particle of sulfur and PABTH carrying Li, this is another main reason. From this point of view, electrolyte solvent with a small volume is favorable to the utilization of sulfur and PABTH.
