The hybridization of conductive polymers (CPs) with other nanomaterials is one of the
effective ways to improve their electrical, optical, mechanical, and biological properties. The …

Lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries have attracted increased interest because of the high
theoretical energy density, low cost, and environmental friendliness. Conducting polymers …

Frequent oil spill accidents and industrial wastewater discharge result in severe health and
ecological problems. Advanced materials with superwettability have been extensively …

A TiO 2 nanosheets constructed yolk-shell architecture with tunable inner voids is designed
and prepared as sulfur host for high-performance and ultralong-life Li-S battery. With the …

In this study, dicobalt tetrasulfide (NiCo 2 S 4) nanoneedles were successfully synthesized
by a two-step hydrothermal method on nickel foam. A layer of polypyrrole (PPy) was further …

Abstract Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have attracted many attentions due to their high
energy density and low-cost. However, the insulation and volume change of sulfur and high …

Abstract Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are ideal for future energy storage owing to their rich
resources and high theoretical energy density. However, the easy solubility of polysulfides …

Ta-doped TiO2/C nanofibers are synthesized by an electrospinning method. First-principles
calculations reveal that the Ta dopant can lower the Li/K diffusion barrier, which is beneficial …

Currently, as a new kind of separator, gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) not only should play a
role to separate cathode and anode, but also should have high ionic conductivity to …

At present, the further evolution of liquid lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) is limited because
there is no effective strategy to fundamentally solve the capacity decay caused by shuttle …
