Abstract

Abstract : Front cover image : Despite considerable efforts have been devoted toward improving the electrochemical performance of Room‐temperature sodium‐sulfur (RT/Na‐S) batteries, the diffusion of polysulfides and sluggish kinetics are still major challenges for their application. In article number: 10.1002/cey2.203, Xinwen Peng et al. design a lightweight, porous N, S‐codoped cellulose nanofiber‐derived carbon aerogel as a multifunctional separator for RT/Na‐S batteries, which reveals superior electrochemical performance.The three‐dimensional interconnected network of carbon aerogel provides hierarchical porous structures, high electronic conductivity, and favorable N, S codoping, thus suppressing the shuttle effect and boosting redox kinetics of soluble sodium polysulfides.
