Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for manufacturing a sulfur-carbon composite including the following steps of: (a) drying a porous carbon material; and (b) adding sulfur to the porous carbon material resulting from the drying of step (a), and mixing the sulfur and porous carbon material by a ball milling process and then heating the resulting ball milled product.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for manufacturing a sulfur-carbon composite comprising the following steps of: (a) drying a porous carbon material; and (b) adding sulfur to the porous carbon material resulting from the drying of step (a), and mixing the sulfur and porous carbon material by a ball milling process and then heating the resulting ball milled product, wherein the drying of step (a) results in porous carbon material having a moisture content of 50 ppm or less. 2. The method for manufacturing the sulfur-carbon composite of claim 1 , wherein the porous carbon material comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of graphite, graphene, carbon black, carbon nanotube, carbon fiber and activated carbon. 3. The method for manufacturing the sulfur-carbon composite of claim 1 , wherein the drying of step (a) is conducted at a temperature of 100° C. to 150° C. for 6 hours to 36 hours. 4. The method for manufacturing the sulfur-carbon composite of claim 1 , wherein the ball milling process of step (b) is conducted at 100 rpm to 500 rpm for 30 minutes to 5 hours. 5. The method for manufacturing the sulfur-carbon composite of claim 1 , wherein the heating of step (b) is conducted at a temperature of 130° C. to 170° C. 6. The method for manufacturing the sulfur-carbon composite of claim 1 , wherein in step (b), the sulfur and the porous carbon material are mixed at a weight ratio of 9:1 to 5:5. 7. The method for manufacturing the sulfur-carbon composite of claim 1 , wherein a weight of the mixture of the sulfur and the porous carbon material mixed in step (b) is 10 g or more. 8. The method for manufacturing the sulfur-carbon composite of claim 1 , wherein sulfur of Rosickyite phase is contained in the sulfur-carbon composite in an amount of more than 0 wt % and less than 10 wt %. 9. The method for manufacturing the sulfur-carbon composite of claim 8 , wherein the sulfur-carbon composite further comprises (a) sulfur of α-phase, (b) sulfur of β-phase, or (c) sulfur of α-phase and sulfur of β-phase.
