Abstract

The sulfur cathode in traditional lithium–sulfur batteries suffers from poor cyclability due to polysulfide shuttling effect as well as large volume change during charge/discharge processes. Gum arabic (GA), a low cost, nontoxic, and sustainable natural polymer from Acacia senegal, is adopted as a binder for the sulfur cathode to address these issues. The excellent mechanical properties of GA endow the cathode with high binding strength and suitable ductility to buffer volume change, while the functional groups chemically and physically confine sulfur species within the cathode to inhibit the shuttling effect of polysulfides. Additionally, GA shifts the electrode fabrication process from the organic solvent process to an aqueous process, eliminates the use of toxic organic solvents, and achieves uniformly distributed electrode with lower impedance. A remarkable cycling performance, i.e., 841 mAh g−1 at low current rate of C/5, is achieved throughout 500 cycles due to the bifunctions of the GA binder.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
