Abstract

Microporous carbon polyhedrons (MPCPs) are derived from unique MOF polyhedrons, and used as a model microporous carbon host for sulfur in Li-S batteries. Systematic investigations have been carried out to reveal the effects of several important parameters, such as the sulfur loading temperature, sulfur content, and the electrolyte. The MPCP/sulfur composite with sulfur exclusively embedded in micropores exhibit stable cycling performance with high Coulombic efficiency in both DOL/DME and EC/DEC electrolytes.
