AbstractThe design of sulfur hosts with polar, sulfurphilic, and conductive network is critical to lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries whose potential applications are greatly limited by the lithium polysulfide shuttle effect. Mxenes, possessing layered-stacked structures and high electrical conductivities, have a great potential in sulfur hosts. Herein, sulfur nanoparticles uniformly decorated on titanium carbide Mxene (S@Ti3C2Tx Mxene) are synthesized via a hydrothermal method and then utilized as a cathode for lithium-sulfur batteries. This unique architecture could accommodate sulfur nanoparticles expansion during cycling, suppress the shuttling of lithium polysulfide, and enhance electronical conductivity. Consequently, the S@Mxene with a high areal sulfur loading (∼4.0 mg cm−2) exhibits a high capacity (1477.2 mAh g−1) and a low capacity loss per cycle of 0.18% after 100 cycles at 0.2 C. This work may shed lights on the development of high performance sulfur-based cathode materials for Li-S batteries.
