The Application of Redox Targeting Principles to the Design of Rechargeable Li–S Flow Batteries

Abstract

Redox targeting concept is applied to address some key challenges in the operation of rechargeable lithium–sulfur batteries: the limited conductivity of the sulfur electrode without the use of conductivity additive; and the meddlesome volume expansion in S to Li2S transformation that degrades the electrical integration of the sulfur electrode with the current collector.
