Provided are a bissulfonate compound, a preparation method therefor, an electrolytic solution and an energy storage device. The bissulfonate compound has a structure of (I) and is applied as an additive to an energy storage device, so that a stable SEI film can be formed on a surface of an anode of the energy storage device, and the decomposition of a solvent in the electrolytic solution can be suppressed. As the stable SEI film can be formed on the surface of the anode, lithium ions can be smoothly embedded and disembedded at a low temperature, thereby improving the low-temperature performance of the energy storage device. Furthermore, a sulfonate group in the bissulfonate compound can coordinate with transition metal ions to form a complex, so that the surface of the positive electrode is passivated, the dissolution of the metal ions of the positive electrode is suppressed, and the decomposition effect of the solvent by an active substance in a high oxidation state is reduced, thereby improving the electrochemical performance of the energy storage device under a high temperature condition. In an energy storage device, the bissulfonate compound can inhibit the increase of the direct current internal resistance, and improve the high temperature performance and the low-temperature performance of the energy storage device.

The invention relates to an electrolyte, which is provided for an alkali-sulfur battery (e.g. for a Li—S battery). The electrolyte contains a non-polar, acyclic and non-fluorinated ether, a polar aprotic organic solvent, and a conducting salt for an alkali-sulfur battery. It has been found that, when such an electrolyte is used in an alkali-sulfur battery, a high-capacity, a low overvoltage, a high cycle stability, and a high Coulomb efficiency can be achieved in the alkali-sulfur battery and, in addition, as compared with an alkali-sulfur battery which contains a fluorinated ether in the electrolyte, a considerably improved gravimetric energy density is obtained. The invention further relates to a battery comprising the electrolyte according to the invention and to uses of the electrolyte according to the invention.
