Abstract
Graphite-phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4) was prepared by heat shrinkage polymerization method using urea as raw material, and phosphorus-doped g-C3N4 with different phosphorus content (xP-CN) was prepared by using hydrogen phosphate diamine as a phosphorus source. The effect of doping on the microstructure, morphology, and electrochemical performance of xP-CN/S composites as cathode materials for lithium-sulfur batteries was studied. The studies show that the layer spacing of xP-CN increases after phosphorus doping, the electrical conductivity increases, and the specific surface area becomes larger. The specific surface area of the 10% P-CN reaches 101.741 m2·g−1. The initial discharge specific capacity of the 10% P-CN/S composite at 0.05 C (1 C=1675 mA·h·g−1) reaches 1383.8 mA·h·g−1. The reversible specific capacity after 100 cycles at 0.2 C is 860.0 mA·h·g−1, the reversible specific capacity of g-C3N4/S composite is only 178.3 mA·h·g−1; The specific capacity of 10% P-CN/S composite can be restored to 93.6% at 0.2 C after the rate test, showing good cycle performance and rate performance.
