GO-CoNiP New Composite Material Modified Separator for Long Cycle Lithium-Sulfur Batteries.

Lithium-sulfur batteries with high capacity are considered the most promising candidates for next-generation energy storage systems. Mitigating the shuttle reaction and promoting catalytic conversion within the battery are major challenges in the development of high-performance lithium-sulfur batteries. To solve these problems, a novel composite material GO-CoNiP is synthesized in this study.

Surface design for high ion flux separator in lithium-sulfur batteries.

Addressing the shuttle effect is a critical challenge in realizing practical applications of lithium-sulfur batteries. One promising avenue refers to the surface modification of separators, transitioning them from closed to open structures. In the current investigation, a high ion flux separator was devised by means of MnO self-assembly onto a Porous Polypropylene (PP) separator, subsequently coupling it with biochar.
