Implication

Novel separator enhances trapping of lithium polysulfides in lithium-sulfur batteries, indicating better stability.

Key Points

  • The aim is to develop a separator that mitigates the shuttle effect and improves the stability of lithium-sulfur batteries.
  • Designed a ZnCoNi zeolitic imidazolate framework on acid-treated MWCNTs.
  • Carbonized the composite to create an N-doped carbon/MWCNT composite with Zn–Co–Ni nanoparticles.
  • Applied the composite as a functional coating on commercial polypropylene separators.
  • The modified separator achieves a capacity of 894 mAh g–1 with sulfur loading of 5.2 mg cm–2.
  • Maintained stable cycling over 1908 cycles with a low capacity decay of approximately 0.041% per cycle.
  • Coulombic efficiency approaches 100% indicating effective battery performance.
