Oxidized graphite (GO) prepared by modified Hummer's method was immersed in carbonic acid
and consequently stripped to a low grained reduced graphene oxide by microwave solid phase method. This method has simplicity for operator
energy efficiency and time saving
in which experimental conditions are mild with free of toxic strong reducer. As cathode composites for lithium-sulfur battery
reduced graphene oxide/nano-sulfur (MRGO/NS) were prepared by in-situ precipitation reaction at low temperature. The crystal structure and morphology of the MRGO and MRGO/NS composites were characterized by FT-IR
XRD
SEM
TEM and BET
respectively. The electrochemical performance of the composites was determined by galvanostatic charge-discharge test and impedance spectroscopy. The results show that the MRGO obtained from GO immersed in carbonic acid and stripped by microwave solid phase method is folding fan-like graphene
which can provide space to accommodate the active materials for lithium-sulfur batteries
and alleviate the shuttle effect to improve the cycle performance and the C-rate performance of the electrode material.
