Boosting Catalytic Activity by Seeding Nanocatalysts onto Interlayers to Inhibit Polysulfide Shuttling in Li-S Batteries

Jingyi Xia et al.

Summary: The use of in situ synthesized ultrasmall vanadium nitride nanoparticles dispersed on porous nitrogen-doped graphene as a catalytic interlayer effectively addresses the shuttle effect caused by soluble lithium polysulfides in Li-S batteries. The ultrasmall size of the vanadium nitride particles provides ample triple-phase interfaces for accelerating LiPS conversion and Li2S deposition, resulting in reduced accumulation of LiPS in the electrolyte and inhibition of the shuttle effect. This approach demonstrates high catalytic activity, as evidenced by a significantly reduced activation energy for Li2S4 conversion and a detected decrease in the shuttle effect, thus leading to outstanding cycling performance and high capacity retention in Li-S batteries.
