Problems solved by technology

The above shuttle effect not only reduces the active material of the positive electrode, but also causes internal self-discharge of the battery, causing capacity fading and shortening cycle life.
Furthermore, there is a large volume change during the cycle of lithium-sulfur batteries, S 8 (2.07g / cm 3 ) and Li 2 S (1.66g / cm 3 ) density is different, and its volume expansion is about 76%, which leads to the weakening of the contact between the material and the substrate, and the destruction of the surface morphology and microscopic characteristics of the sulfur cathode, resulting in capacity fading
