What is a lithium-sulfur battery?

The lithium–sulfur battery (Li–S battery) is a type of rechargeable battery. It is notable for its high specific energy. The low atomic weight of lithium and moderate atomic weight of sulfur means that Li–S batteries are relatively light (about the density of water).

Can a lithium-sulfur battery replace a current lithium-ion battery?

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery, which releases energy by coupling high abundant sulfur with lithium metal, is considered as a potential substitute for the current lithium-ion battery.

How much sulfur does a Li-s battery use?

As a result, a high sulfur utilization is achieved with a low catalyst loading (1 wt%) at a high area-sulfur loading of 8 mg cm −2. The Li-S battery can deliver a high areal discharge capacity of 8.1 mAh cm −2, which is more than twice the value obtained from the state-of-the-art LiNi x Co y Mn 1−x−y O 2 -based cells (≈ 4 mAh cm −2) .

Can lithium-sulfur batteries break the energy limitations of commercial lithium-ion batteries?

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery is recognized as one of the promising candidates to break through the specific energy limitations of commercial lithium-ion batteries given the high theoretical specific energy, environmental friendliness, and low cost.

Why are sulfur cathodes important for Li-S batteries?

The high areal loading sulfur cathodes are also necessary to realize the high capacity of Li-S batteries. On the one hand, it offsets the “dead weight” from separators and current collectors.

Are lithium-sulfur batteries a conflict of interest?

The authors declare no conflict of interest. Abstract The development of lithium–sulfur batteries (LSBs) marks a crucial milestone in advancing energy storage solutions essential for sustainable energy transitions. With high theoretical speci...
