What are the bottlenecks of lithium-sulfur batteries?
The shuttle effect, which causes the loss of active sulfur, passivation of lithium anode, and leads to severe capacity attenuation, is currently the main bottleneck for lithium-sulfur batteries.
Can molybdenum based catalytic materials prevent the shuttle effect?
To address these challenges, varieties of catalytic materials have been exploited to prevent the shuttle effect and accelerate the LiPSs conversion. Recently, molybdenum-based (Mo-based) catalytic materials are widely used as sulfur host materials, modified separators, and interlayers for Li–S batteries.
Is molybdenum a good electrode candidate for aqueous batteries?
Compared with typical carbon-based materials, molybdenum-based materials own a much higher specific capacitance, taking advantages of their multiple oxidation states that are in favor of fast charge storage [ 9, 10 ], which are considered as promising electrode candidates for aqueous batteries.
Recently, molybdenum-based (Mo-based) catalytic materials are widely used as sulfur host materials, modified separators, and interlayers for Li–S batteries. They include the Mo sulfides, diselenides, carbides, nitrides, oxides, phosphides, borides, and metal/single atoms/clusters.
What are the applications of molybdenum-based materials in aqueous batteries?
In this review, we summarize the application of molybdenum-based materials in various kinds of aqueous batteries, which begins with LIBs and SIBs and then extends to multivalent ion batteries such as ZIBs and AIBs. Some new energy storage systems, such as ammonium-ion batteries, are also mentioned.
Can molybdenum be used as a polar substrate for lithium polysulfide?
Recent studies have disclosed that molybdenum compounds possess exceptional advantages as a polar substrate to immobilize and catalyze lithium polysulfide such as high conductivity and strong sulfiphilicity.
