Porous multi-walled carbon nanotubes (PCNTs) with multiple mesopores structure are synthesized through activation of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by potassium hydroxide. The potassium hydroxide activation process results in a significantly enhanced specific surface area with numerous small pores. The as-obtained PCNTs are employed as the conductive matrix for sulfur in the sulfur cathode. Compared with the composite sulfur cathode based on the original MWCNTs, the sulfur-PCNTs cathode shows a significantly improved cycle performance and columbic efficiency. The reversible capacity is 530 mAhg(-1) and columbic efficiency is 90 % after 100 cycles at a current density of 100 mAg(-1). The improvement in the electrochemical performance for S-PCNTis mainly attributed to the enlarged surface area and the porous structure of the unique mesopores carbon nanotube host, which cannot only facilitate transport of electrons and Li+ ions, but also trap polysulfides, retard the shuttle effect during charge/discharge process.
