Carbon–sulfur composites for Li–S batteries: status and prospects

Abstract

We review the development of carbon–sulfur composites and the application for Li–S batteries. Discussions are devoted to the synthesis approach of the various carbon–sulfur composites, the structural transformation of sulfur, the carbon–sulfur interaction and the impacts on electrochemical performances. Perspectives are summarized regarding the synthesis chemistry, electrochemistry and industrial production with particular emphasis on the structural optimization of carbon–sulfur composites.
