Reaction heterogeneity in practical high-energy lithium–sulfur pouch cells

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the reaction processes and their correlation to cell cycling behavior and failure mechanisms, and find that catastrophic failure of high-energy Li-sulfur (Li-S) pouch cells results from uneven sulfur/polysulfide reactions and electrolyte depletion for the first tens of cycles.

Manu U. M. Patel, +1 more
- 01 Aug 2014 - 
TL;DR: Recalculation of normalized reflections of UV/Vis spectra obtained in operando mode enable the formation of polysulfides and their concentrations to be followed and it is possible to distinguish differences in the mechanism ofpolysulfide shuttling between two electrolytes and to correlate differences in capacity fading.
