Title:
METHOD FOR IMPROVING LIFETIME OF LITHIUM-SULFUR BATTERY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/022399
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for improving the lifetime of a lithium-sulfur battery, the method comprising an activation step for forming a positive electrode active material-derived compound having a solubility of 1 wt% or more relative to an electrolyte by charging and discharging of the battery. In the activation step, the lithium-sulfur battery can be charged and discharged within a range higher than 2.0 V but lower than 2.4 V. In addition, in the activation step, the lithium-sulfur battery can be charged and discharged 3-10 times.
