Lithium-sulfur batteries are one of the most promising battery systems nowadays. However, this system is still not suitable for practical application because of the number of shortcomings that limit its cycle life. One of the main problems related to this system is the volumetric change during cycling. This deficiency can be compensated by using the appropriate binder. In this article, we present the influence of a water-soluble binder carrageenan on the electrochemical properties of the Li-S battery. The electrode with a carrageenan binder provides good stability during cycling and at high C-rates. Electrochemical testing was also carried out with a small prototype pouch cell with a capacity of 16 mAh. This prototype pouch cell with the water-based carrageenan binder showed lower self-discharge and low capacity drop. Capacity decreased by 7% after 70 cycles.

The graphene/sulfur nanocomposite has been synthesized by heating a mixture of graphene sheets and elemental sulfur. The morphology, structure and electrochemical performance of graphene/sulfur nanocomposite as cathode material for lithium-sulfur batteries were systematically investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction and a variety of electrochemical testing techniques. The graphene/sulfur nanocomposite cathodes display a high reversible capacity of 800-1200 mAh g-1, and stable cycling for more than 100 deep cycles at 0.1 C. The graphene sheets have good conductivity and an extremely high surface area, and provide a robust electron transport network. The graphene network also accommodates the volume change of the electrode during the Li-S electrochemical reaction.

The paper discusses the electrochemical behavior of a Li-S battery with a new water-soluble binder NV-1A. It is shown that the main contribution is made by the interface, which is formed on the lithium counter electrode. It is noteworthy that the nonlinear growth of the resistance of SEI layer during the discharge process correlates with the change in the resistance of charge transfer through the interface.
