Abstract
Lithium–Sulfur Batteries In article number 2204353, Jeongyeon Lee, Ho Seok Park, and co-workers design triethylene glycol functionalized polymeric cobalt phthalocyanines uniformly coated onto multi-wall carbon nanotubes, which act as an efficient redox mediator in lithium–sulfur batteries. The as-designed materials enable co-operative catalytic and lithiophilic sites, facilitating the conversion reaction kinetics of sulfur cathodes while inhibiting polysulfide shuttling.
