Abstract

Several critical issues, such as the shuttling effect and the sluggish reaction kinetics, exist in the design of high-performance lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. To address these issues, Co 9S 8-Mo 2 C nanoparticles were synthesized by carburizing method with Co-Co PBA as the precursor, which was used to modify cathode materials in Li-S batteries. Strong sulfur fixation and catalytic effects on liquid-phase and liquid-solid transformation were demonstrated by Co 9S 8-Mo 2 C nanoparticles. In contrast, the positive electrode of Co 9S 8 nanoparticles is inferior to that of Co 9S 8-Mo 2 C nanoparticles in every way. This proves that the adsorption-catalytic function of Co 9S 8-Mo 2 C enhances polysulfide capture and conversion efficiency. By optimizing the proportion of Mo 2C, we obtained a material with the best performance. The positive electrode that had the optimal ratio of Co 9S 8-Mo 2C nanoparticles showed high specific capacity (0.2 C, 1010.8 mAh·g -1), excellent rate performance (1 C, 609.4 mAh·g -1 and 2 C, 590 mAh·g -1) and stable cycle performance.
