Technical Field
The invention relates to a nitrogen-doped molybdenum disulfide/C/carbon nanotube composite material, in particular to a high-nitrogen-content doped molybdenum disulfide/C/carbon nanotube lithium battery cathode material and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of a nano composite material and application thereof.
Background
The carbon nanotube is a hollow cylinder formed by rolling graphite layers, and the bonding mode of the carbon nanotube is mainly a deformed Sp2 orbit. When the graphite layer is rolled into the carbon nanotube, partial deformation of Sp2 hybridization occurs, so Sp2 tends to form re-hybridization of Sp3, and the re-hybridization structure and the two-orbital confinement characteristics can endow the carbon nanotube with excellent force, heat, electricity, light, magnetism and chemical properties. Therefore, the carbon nanotube has higher mechanical strength, better electric heat conduction performance and higher chemical and biological activity than graphene.
With the development of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon nanotubes doped with different elements, carbon tubes have attracted attention because of their unique structures and their excellent properties, and when doped with different elements, the structures of six rings of carbon nanotubes are changed to some extent so that their properties are changed or improved. Carbon nanotube materials have wide applications in electronic and optical devices, electrochemistry, thermal conduction, and the like. The high electron cloud density of the nitrogen atoms doped in the carbon nanotube crystal lattice also leads the carbon nanotube to have unique performance in the aspects of electrons, materials and electrochemistry, and creates good conditions for improving the electron transmission and the mass transmission of the CNT material. The nitrogen doping of the carbon nano tube plays a key role in promoting and expanding the application field of the carbon nano tube.However, most methods for preparing nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes utilize chemical vapor deposition technology, and because the reaction time and the reaction degree are difficult to control, impurity elements exist in the obtained product. In addition, nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube materials with various advantages are rarely combined with amorphous carbon-modified MoS with good stability and high specific capacity by a simple and practical method2The material is compounded and applied to the lithium ion battery cathode material.
CN 104176724B provides a preparation method of a nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube, which comprises the steps of firstly, uniformly mixing oxalic acid, water and metal salt to obtain a first mixed solution, then, mixing the obtained first mixed solution with melamine to obtain a second mixed solution, then, refluxing to obtain a suspension of a compound of melamine oxalate and metal oxalate, finally, carrying out suction filtration, washing and drying to obtain a precursor compound, then, carrying out calcination treatment at 600-900 ℃ under a nitrogen atmosphere to obtain a primary product, and finally, removing metal impurities introduced in the preparation process through acid treatment to obtain the nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube.

(1) Weighing Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) and Sodium Dodecyl Benzene Sulfonate (SDBS), adding into deionized water, continuously performing magnetic stirring, performing ultrasonic treatment, adding urea, stirring with a magnetic stirrer, drying the prepared solution, and uniformly mixing the dried powder by grinding. Then calcining at 550 ℃ for 4 hours, and then heating to 900 ℃ for calcining for 2 hours to obtain the nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube. Then the obtained carbon nano tube reacts with potassium thiocyanate and molybdenum trioxide in a high-pressure hydrothermal kettle for 24 hours, and finally the nitrogen-doped MoS is obtained through cooling, washing and drying2A carbon nanotube composite material.
However, these methods generally have many steps, long time consumption, difficult control of reaction time and degree, low nitrogen doping efficiency and easy introduction of impurity elements. Leading to difficulty in preparing high nitrogen content doped molybdenum disulfide/C/carbon nanotube materials, thereby limiting the wide application of such materials.

The first charge and discharge capacities and the discharge capacities after 100 charge and discharge tests of examples 1 to 8 and comparative examples 1 to 3 are shown in table 1. Wherein the content of nitrogen element is determined by element analysis.
The test data show that the nitrogen doping content in the composite material is improved, and the nitrogen content can reach 5.3 percent at most. Secondly, the specific capacity of the button cell for the first discharge is increased, and the first discharge capacity in the embodiment 8 reaches 1112.6 mAh g-1Compared with comparative example 1, the product is improved by 14.1 percent, compared with comparative example 2, the product is improved by 211.5 percent, and compared with comparative example 3, the product is improved by 11.9 percent. And the composite material still keeps higher reversible capacity after being cycled for 100 times, the reversible capacity retention rate exceeds 80 percent and reaches 90.1 percent at most, which shows that the composite material prepared by the invention has higher reversible capacity and good cycle performance.
