Sulfur-based cathode chemistries are essential for the development of high energy d. alkali-ion batteries. Here, we elucidate the redox kinetics of sulfur confined on carbon nanotubes, comparing its performance in ether-based and carbonate-based electrolytes at room temperature The solvent is found to play a key role for the electrochem. reactivity of the sulfur cathode in sodium-sulfur (Na-S) batteries. Ether-based electrolytes contribute to a more complete reduction of sulfur and enable a higher electrochem. reversibility. On the other hand, an irreversible solution-phase reaction is observed in carbonate solvents. This study clearly reveals the solvent-dependent Na-S reaction pathways in room temperature Na-S batteries and provides an insight into realizing their high energy potential, via electrolyte formulation design.
