Streamline Sulfur Redox Reactions to Achieve Efficient Room-Temperature Sodium-Sulfur Batteries

Yaojie Lei et al.

Summary: It is crucial to regulate S activity dynamically for efficient and stable room-temperature sodium-sulfur (RT/Na-S) batteries. In this study, cobalt sulfide is used as an electron reservoir to enhance the activity of sulfur cathodes, and cobalt single atoms serve as double-end binding sites for stable S conversion. The rational construction of CoS2 electron reservoir enables the direct reduction of S to short-chain sodium polysulfides (Na2S4) through a streamlined redox path. Cobalt single atoms synergistically work with the electron reservoir to reinforce the streamlined redox path, immobilize in situ formed long-chain products, and catalyze their conversion, leading to high S utilization and sustainable cycling stability. The developed sulfur cathodes exhibit superior rate performance and high cycling capacity retention.
