Combining theory and experiment in lithium–sulfur batteries: Current progress and future perspectives

TL;DR: In this paper, the typical applications of computational chemistry in Li-S battery studies, correlating to characterization techniques, such as X-ray diffraction, infra-red & Raman spectra, X -ray absorption spectroscopy, binding energy, and nuclear magnetic resonance, are reviewed.

Activating Li2S as the Lithium-Containing Cathode in Lithium-Sulfur Batteries

TL;DR: Lithium-sulfur batteries are considered a possible next-generation energy storage solution, but their commercial viability is still in question because of several technical challenges, including th... as mentioned in this paper.

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.

Electrocatalytic activity of lithium polysulfides adsorbed into porous TiO 2 coated MWCNTs hybrid structure for lithium-sulfur batteries

TL;DR: A novel composite MWCNTs@TiO2-S nanostructure is reported by grafting TiO2 onto the surface of MWC NTs, followed by incorporating sulfur into the composite, which exhibited the highest electrochemistry performance among all compositing ratios of M WCNTs/TiO 2.

Surface chemistry of lithium in 1,3-dioxolane

TL;DR: In this paper, Li-formate is found to be one of the major species formed on Li in dioxolane, and Li is used as a cleaning agent for ether solvents, and the electrochemical behavior of methyl formate-Li salt/CO2 solutions have enabled a more accurate identification of surface films formed on lithium in 1,3-dioxolanes.

A self-discharge model of Lithium-Sulfur batteries based on direct shuttle current measurement

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple but comprehensive mathematical model of the Li-S battery cell self-discharge based on the shuttle current was developed and is presented The shuttle current values for the model parameterization were obtained from the direct shuttle current measurements.

The propagating species in the polymerisation of 1,3‐Dioxacycloalkanes by Perchloric Acid

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discriminate between the two principal rival theories concerning the polymerisation of 1,3-dioxacycloalkanes by anhydrous perchloric acid, the Mainz theory and the Keele theory, by means of Jaacks's method for determining tertiary oxonium ions.
