Lithium-Sulfur Batteries: Advances In High-Energy Density Batteries

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries provide an alternative to lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries and are showing promise for providing much higher energy densities. Systems utilizing Li-S batteries are presently under development and early stages of commercialization. This technology is being developed in order to provide higher, safer levels of energy at significantly lower costs. Lithium-Sulfur Batteries: Advances in High-Energy Density Batteries addresses various aspects of the current research in the field of sulfur cathodes and lithium metal anode including abundance, system voltage, and capacity. In addition, it provides insights into the basic challenges faced by the system. The book includes novel strategies to prevent polysulfide dissolution in sulfur-based systems while also exploring new materials systems as anodes preventing dendrite formation in Li metal anodes. Provides insight into the basic challenges faced by the materials system Discusses additives and suppressants to prevent dissolution of electrolyes Includes a review of the safety limitations associated with this technology Incorporates a historical perspective into the development of lithium-sulfur batteries
