Two-dimensional Nafion nanoweb anion-shield for improved electrochemical performances of lithium–sulfur batteries

초록

We first demonstrate a facile and effective strategy to directly deposit a Nafion nanoweb onto a sulfur cathode to address the challenges underlying in Li–S batteries. The Nafion nanoweb not only blocks the diffusion of polysulfides by electrostatic repulsion but also allows fast Li-ion exchange with the sulfur cathode through the selective protection layer. The Nafion nanoweb-sulfur cathode retained an excellent cycle performance over 200 cycles and delivered an improved rate capability, as compared to a sulfur cathode and a Nafion layer-sulfur cathode.
