This work is to study the reasons for the relatively low efficiency of sulphur reduction (about 75%) in lithium-sulphur batteries. The two main reasons for that are suggested to be: the relatively low electrochemical activity of low order lithium polysulphides and blocking of the carbon framework of the sulphur electrode by insoluble products of electrochemical reactions sulphur and lithium sulphide. The electrochemical activity of lithium polysulphides with different composition (Li2Sn, n = 2-6) has been studied in 1 M solutions of CF3SO3Li in sulfolane. It is shown that lithium polysulphides including lithium disulphide are able to electrochemically reduce with efficiency close to 100%. The electrochemical activity of lithium polysulphides decreases with the order. The order of lithium polysulphides affects the value of voltage of discharge plateaus but not the efficiency of sulphur reducing in the lithium polysulphides species. The relatively low efficiency of sulphur reduction in the lithium sulphur batteries is more likely caused by blocking of carbon particles in the sulphur electrode by insoluble products of electrochemical reactions (sulphur and lithium sulphide). This prevents the electrochemical reduction of low order lithium polysulphides and especially lithium disulphide. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
