A protein-based robust binder was developed to strongly adsorb polysulfides and buffer large volume changes for use in high-loading sulfur cathodes.
Abstract Developing high‐performance batteries through applying renewable resources is of great significance for meeting ever‐growing energy demands and sustainability requirements. Biomaterials have overwhelming advantages in material abundance, environmental benignity, low cost, more importantly, multifunctionalities from structural compositional diversity. Therefore, significant fruitful research on exploiting various natural biomaterials (e.g., soy protein, chitosan, cellulose, fungus,...
Abstract Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) possessing ultrahigh energy density are promising next‐generation battery systems, but the short cycle life and safety concerns caused by uncontrollable growth of lithium dendrites impede their broad applications. Herein, to address these issues, an ultrarobust composite gel electrolyte (CGE) that can effectively stabilize ion deposition for LMBs is designed via fabricating a specially structured aerogel as matrix. The matrix with 3D interconnected...
Polar host materials with strong adsorption capacity of polysulfides are designed to limit the shuttle effect in sulfur cathodes. However, a critical problem is control diffusion and deposition lithium during cycling, which significantly impacts cycling stability utilization.
