title: Hydroxylated carbon nanotube enhanced sulfur cathodes for improved electrochemical performance of lithium-sulfur batteries.
abstract: Hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes were introduced into sulfur cathodes to utilize the hydrophilic attraction between the OH group and polysulfides as well as to increase the utilization of sulfur. This approach shows a promising strategy for diminishing the polysulfides shuttling behavior and improving the electrochemical performance of lithium-sulfur batteries.
