The lithium/sulfur system, which during the redox process behaves according to the reaction 2Li + S ? V vs Li/Li + (about 60% of the voltage of conventional Li-ion batteries), the theoretical capacity of sulfur is 1,672 mAh g -1 , which leads to a theoretical specific energy of ~2,600 Wh kg -1 for the lithium/sulfur battery.
