Title: Anode–Free Lithium–Sulfur Cells Enabled by Rationally Tuning Lithium Polysulfide Molecules

Abstract

The two major barriers of practical lithium–sulfur batteries are the poor reversibility of lithium-metal anode and sluggish kinetics of sulfur cathode. Here, we report a simple yet cogent, molecular tailoring approach for lithium polysulfides, enabling a synergistic enhancement of anode reversibility and cathode kinetics. In this study, we show that SnI₄ coordinates with lithium polysulfides to form soluble complexes, resulting in a Li₂SnS₃-rich anode interphase layer. As Li₂SnS₃ is stable against parasitic reactions and has a lower ionic resistance over cycling, the Li plating/stripping efficiency is greatly improved. In addition, the formation of soluble complexes between SnI₄ and lithium polysulfides play a non-negligible role in suppressing the clustering behavior of lithium polysulfide molecules, resulting in a significant enhancement in sulfur conversion kinetics under lean electrolyte conditions. The synergistic improvement is validated in anode-free, lean-electrolyte pouch cells with a Li₂S cathode that displays capacity retention of 78 % after 100 cycles.

Beyond the Polysulfide Shuttle and Lithium Dendrite Formation: Addressing the Sluggish Sulfur Redox Kinetics for Practical High-Energy Li-S Batteries

Journal Article Zhao, Chen ; Xu, Gui‐Liang ; Zhao, Tianshou ; ... - Angewandte Chemie (International Edition)

Electrolyte modulation simultaneously suppresses polysulfide the shuttle effect and lithium dendrite formation of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. However, the sluggish S redox kinetics, especially under high S loading and lean electrolyte operation, has been ignored, which dramatically limits the cycle life and energy density of practical Li-S pouch cells. In this work, we demonstrate that a rational combination of selenium doping, core-shell hollow host structure, and fluorinated ether electrolytes enables ultrastable Li stripping/plating and essentially no polysulfide shuttle as well as fast redox kinetics. Thus, high areal capacity (>4 mAh cm^-2) with excellent cycle stability and Coulombic efficiency were both demonstratedmore »« less

Electrochemically Stable High Energy Density Lithium-Sulfur Batteries

Technical Report Kumta, Prashant N. ; Weidlein, Edward R.

Lithium-Sulfur batteries (LSB) have emerged as one of the strong contenders for high energy density rechargeable batteries in the Li-ion battery domain. The LSB system is considered as the most promising to achieve the next milestone in energy density of 500 Wh/kg. However, the LSB system is plagued with problems of polysulfide formation which are soluble in the organic electrolyte leading to loss in capacity and eventual cell failure. The problem is further compounded by dendrite formation on the Li anode during electrochemical cycling leading to puncturing of the separator causing eventual short-circuiting of the cell and consequent heat generationmore »« less

A Dual–Phase Electrolyte for High–Energy Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Journal Article Ren, Yuxun ; Manthiram, Arumugam - Advanced Energy Materials

Abstract Dissolution of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) is essential for fast cathode kinetics, but detrimental for anode stability, especially under lean electrolyte conditions. In this work, the phase separation phenomenon between solvents with different polarities (tetramethyl sulfone [TMS] and dibutyl ether [DBE]) is utilized to enable the design of a dual‐phase electrolyte. High‐polarity, high‐density TMS–lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide–ammonium trifluoroacetate as the cathode electrolyte strongly solvates LiPSs, which propel the sulfur redox reaction. Moreover, the composite of DBE and a polymeric ion conductor serves as the anode electrolyte. The addition of DBE in the anode side effectively prevents the crossover of corrosive species (LiPSsmore »« less
