The study demonstrates the reversible sulfur oxidation process in AlCl3/carbamide ionic liquid, with high efficiency of around 94% and wide range of workable high potentials. The Al-S battery based on sulfur oxidation can cycle steadily around 1.8 V, the highest operation voltage in Al-S batteries, providing valuable insights for the design of other high-voltage metal-sulfur batteries.
Sulfur is an important electrode material in metal-sulfur batteries. It is usually coupled with metal anodes and undergoes electrochemical reduction to form metal sulfides. Herein, we demonstrate, for the first time, the reversible sulfur oxidation process in AlCl3/carbamide ionic liquid, where sulfur is electrochemically oxidized by AlCl3 - to form AlSCl7 . The sulfur oxidation is: 1) highly reversible with an efficiency of similar to 94%; and 2) workable within a wide range of high potentials. As a result, the Al-S battery based on sulfur oxidation can be cycled steadily around similar to 1.8 V, which is the highest operation voltage in Al-S batteries. The study of sulfur oxidation process benefits the understanding of sulfur chemistry and provides a valuable inspiration for the design of other high-voltage metal-sulfur batteries, not limited to Al-S configurations.
