Abstract
Lithium–sulfur batteries (LSBs) are one of the most promising candidates for next-generation high-energy-density energy storage systems, but their commercialization is hindered by the poor cycling stability due to the insulativity of sulfur and the reaction end products, and the migration of lithium polysulfide. MXenes are a type of emerging two-dimensional material and have shown excellent electrochemical properties in LSBs due to their high conductivity and large specific surface area. Herein, several synthetic strategies developed for MXenes since their discovery are summarized alongside discussion of the excellent properties of MXenes for LSBs. Recent advances in MXene-based materials as cathodes for LSBs as well as interlayers are also reviewed. Finally, the future development strategy and prospect of MXene-based materials in high-energy-density LSBs are put forward.
