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.
