Traditional lithium-ion batteries are no longer able to keep up with the growing need for energy storage efficiency in areas like electric cars and renewable energy storage. Because of their great energy density, affordability, and environmental friendliness, lithium-sulfur batteries are regarded as a very promising solution for secondary battery systems. Sulfur-based compounds are an essential part of lithium-sulfur batteries and have a direct impact on the battery’s energy density and performance. However, sulfur-based compounds are easily soluble in electrolytes and have low conductivity, which shortens battery cycle life and energy efficiency. Sulfur dissolution can be successfully inhibited and capacitance may be enhanced by optimizing the structure and characteristics of sulfur-based materials, which will improve the overall performance of lithium-sulfur batteries. To enhance the performance of lithium-sulfur batteries, this article suggests three modification techniques for sulfur-based materials. These techniques mostly include compounding sulfur with carbon compounds, metal oxides, and polymers. This article also outlines the shortcomings of the present lithium-sulfur battery research and looks forward to the future development direction.
