Metal sulfides are gaining prominence as conversion anode materials for lithium/sodium ion batteries due to their higher specific capacities but suffers from low stability and reversibility issues. In this work, the electrochemical properties of CuS anode material has been successfully enhanced by its composite formation using graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN). The CuS nanoparticles are distributed evenly in the exfoliated g-CN matrix rendering higher electronic conductivity and space for volume alterations during the repeated discharge/charge cycles.
