On the cathode side, the 3D conductive network structure of Ni@BNCNT is favorable for high sulfur utilization, and the collaboration between polar metal Ni nanoparticles(NPs) and doped B/N elements facilitates the chemical adsorption of Li polysulfides(Li PSs). In addition, these metal Ni NPs exhibit a satisfactory catalytic effect on the polysulfide conversion. Moreover, using the Ni@BNCNT interlayer can further capture the soluble Li PSs, make them convert quickly, and prevent them from diffusing toward the anode side. The Li-S batteries simultaneously equipped with a S/Ni@BNCNT cathode and Ni@BNCNT interlayer show high reversible capacity and good cycle stability. Additionally, even at a sulfur loading of 3.5 mg cm;and an electrolyte/sulfur ratio of 3 μL mg;, excellent battery performance can be achieved. We believe that this work offers a new strategy based on combining a catalytic host and separator coating to construct high-efficiency Li-S batteries.展开更多
