To overcome thesechallenges, a novel structure design single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) composited polyaniline(PANI)-wrapped FeS_(2) (FeS_(2)-PANI-SWCNTs) electrodes are successfully achieved in this work. PANI canprotect the FeS_(2) particles from collapse and offer a protective layer to relive the polysulfides shuttlingeffect, and also promote the electron and Naþ diffusion during the chemical conversion process. Underthe dual protection of PANI and SWCNTs, the FeS_(2)-PANI-SWCNTs film electrode demonstrates a goodstructural integrity, which accounts for the excellent rate capability and long cycling performance. Inaddition, the PANI coating and SWCNT network in the fabricated electrode can synergistically anchorpolysulfides and therefore strongly suppress shuttle effect during the chargeedischarge processes,resulting in less capacity loss. The anode with a loading 3.2 mg cm 2 of FeS_(2) coated with PANI exhibitsthe initial coulombic efficiency of 81.5% and delivers a specific capacity of 625.8 mAh g^(-1) after 100 cyclesat 200 mA g^(-1). High flexible and binder-free FeS_(2)-PANI-SWCNTs film anode demonstrates a reversiblecapacity of 537 mAh g^(-1) after 550 cycles at 1 A g^(-1).
