A team of researchers from institutions in China and the US report the design of a negatively charged graphene composite separator for the effective suppression of the polysulfide shuttling effect in Li-sulfur batteries. Therefore, despite extensive efforts, the improvement to date remains rather unsatisfactory, especially in energy density.

A team of researchers from China and Germany have used azulene—a benzene-free and vinyl-free molecule—to polymerize with sulfur to create a cathode material for Li-S batteries. The reactions of organohalides with sodium polysulfide and sulfur with dithiols seem to be the most effective routes to obtain organosulfur polymers.
