Lignosulfonate, a sulfonated carbon waste material, is a major by-product in the papermaking industry. Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) have now developed a method to use this cheap and abundant waste byproduct to build a components for lithium-sulfur batteries. per cycle over 200 cycles.

A Li/S cell built at high sulfur mass loading (4 mg cm -2 ) using the IL-based electrolyte demonstrated a stable capacity of 600 mAh g -1 for double the cycles of a cell using LiNO 3 additive (300 vs 150). Additionally, the mitigation of sulfur deposition through the Li-polysulfide migration to the anode side has been demonstrated. …
