Abstract:
It is well-known that, under lean electrolyte and high sulfur loading conditions, it is challenging to achieve a high discharge platform, discharge capacity, and cycling stability for lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. Here we report a free-standing sulfur cathode that can efficiently adsorb and electrochemically catalyze polysulfides. A cationic polymer, polyquaternium-10 (P10), is adopted as a new binder that produces viscoelastic fibers during casting, facilitates lithium-ion transportation, and electrostatically regulates polysulfides. The cationic polymer promotes the formation of the free-standing cathode with a desirable web-like microstructure. The Li-S battery constructed by the free-standing cathode with sulfur mass loading of 6 mg cm-2 achieves a high initial areal capacity of 7.09 mAh cm-2 (i.e., 344.5 Wh kg-1 and 471.6 Wh l-1) and stable areal capacity of 4.48 mAh cm-2 (i.e., 217.6 Wh kg-1 and 235.8 Wh l-1) during cycling at a low electrolyte/sulfur ratio of 4 μL mg-1 © 2022 American Chemical Society.
