(a) Specific capacities of the PVP modified sulfur cathode at C/5, C/2 and 1C cycling rates. (b) b) Comparison of cycling performance at C/2 with and without the PVP modification. Lithium sulfur batteries are of great interest due to their high specific energy and relatively low cost (e.g., Click to enlarge.

Lithium-sulfur batteries are of great interest for electromobility applications, among others, due to their high specific energy and relatively low cost, but are challenged by significant capacity decay over cycling. In the lithium-sulfur model, the cathode is composed of elemental sulfur. Althues, J.

The carbons simultaneously exhibit electrical conductivity more than 3x more than activated carbons; very high electrochemical activity at high mass loading; and high stability, as demonstrated by supercapacitors and lithium–sulfur batteries with excellent performance. Tests were also conducted on lithium-sulfur batteries.

Lithium-sulfur batteries are extremely attractive as a next-generation energy storage solution due to their high theoretical energy density (2600 W·h·kg −1 ), environmental friendliness, and low cost due to the earth-abundant resource of elemental sulfur—also a byproduct from the petroleum industry. (a)

Li-sulfur batteries—which conventionally use elemental sulfur (with conductive additives) as the cathode, an aprotic liquid electrolyte, and lithium metal as the anode—are under intensive investigation by research groups worldwide because of the promise for low-cost, high-energy storage.
