Abstract
at a C-rate of 0.05C. Long-term cycling tests were conducted at 1C and 0.5C over 500 cycles, achieving coulombic efficiencies of approximately 99% and 97%, respectively, in sulfur-biomass-derived activated carbon composite-based Li-S batteries. Hence, our research showcases the scalable synthesis of biomass-derived activated carbon and its utilization as a versatile electrode material, laying the groundwork for the next generation of multifunctional sustainable energy storage systems.
