Potassium–Sulfur Batteries: A New Member of Room-Temperature Rechargeable Metal–Sulfur Batteries

Zhao, Qing, Hu, Yuxiang, Zhang, Kai, Chen, Jun·2014·Inorganic Chemistry

Abstract

We report room-temperature rechargeable potassium-sulfur (K-S) batteries using ordered mesoporous carbon (CMK-3)/sulfur and polyanilime (PANI) coated CMK-3/sulfur composites as the cathode and metallic potassium as the anode. The electrochemical reaction mechanism was investigated by electrochemical tests, TEM, XRD, and Raman spectra. It was found that K-S batteries delivered two reduction peaks located at about 2.1 and 1.8 V and one oxidation peak at about 2.2 V, respectively. Meanwhile, K2S3 was the major discharge product that could be charged to reversibly form S and K ion. Through optimization of sulfur content, the CMK-3/sulfur composite with 40.8 wt % S displayed an initial discharge capacity of 512.7 mAh g(-1) and a capacity of 202.3 mAh g(-1) after 50 cycles at a current density of 50 mA g(-1). A coating of conductive polyanilime (PANI) on the CMK-3/sulfur composite is effective in enhancing the cycling performance. In comparison, PANI@CMK-3/sulfur composite showed a capacity of 329.3 mAh g(-1) after 50 cycles at 50 mA g(-1). The results shed light on the basic study of rechargeable K-S batteries.

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.
