In Situ Reactive Synthesis of Polypyrrole-MnO2 Coaxial Nanotubes as Sulfur Hosts for High-Performance Lithium–Sulfur Battery
Abstract
Lithium–sulfur batteries are considered as a promising candidate for high energy density storage applications. However, their specific capacity and cyclic stability are hindered by poor conductivity of sulfur and the dissolution of redox intermediates. Here, we design polypyrrole-MnO 2 coaxial nanotubes to encapsulate sulfur, in which MnO 2 restrains the shuttle effect of polysulfides greatly through chemisorption and polypyrrole serves as conductive frameworks. The polypyrrole-MnO 2 nanotubes are synthesized through in situ polymerization of pyrrole using MnO 2 nanowires as both template and oxidization initiator. A stable Coulombic efficiency of ∼98.6% and a decay rate of 0.07% per cycle along with 500 cycles at 1C-rate are achieved for S/PPy-MnO 2 ternary electrodes with 70 wt % of S and 5 wt % of MnO 2 . The excellent trapping ability of MnO 2 to polysulfides and tubular structure of polypyrrole with good flexibility and conductivity are responsible for the significantly improved cyclic stability and rate capability.

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.
