Abstract

Abstract : Chemical anchoring and facilitated transformation of polysulfides by polar titanium nitride nanoparticles and uniform distribution of sulfur by non-polar graphene showed efficient cooperative interactions for lithium–sulfur batteries. Abstract : Chemical anchoring and facilitated transformation of polysulfides by polar titanium nitride nanoparticles and uniform distribution of sulfur by non-polar graphene showed efficient cooperative interactions for lithium–sulfur batteries, which contributed to the enhanced electrochemical performance of a high initial discharge capacity of 1412 mA h g −1 (0.2 C) and long-term cyclability.
