The lithium–sulfur battery (Li–S battery) is a type of rechargeable battery. It is notable for its high specific energy. The low atomic weight of lithium and moderate atomic weight of sulfur means that Li–S batteries are relatively light (about the density of water). They were used on the longest and highest-altitude unmanned solar-powered aeroplane flight (at the time) by Zephyr 6 in August 2008.
For the beyond LIB era, extensive exploration has been done to find safer, more reliable, and high capacity next generation energy storage technologies such as supercapacitors and alternative ion batteries. Among the various candidates, lithium–sulfur batteries (LSBs) have been under focused attention in recent decades for their multiple merits.

Early lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries did not perform well because sulfur species (polysulfides) dissolved into the electrolyte, causing its corrosion. This polysulfide shuttling effect negatively impacts battery life and lowers the number of times the battery can be recharged.

Rechargeable Lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) have garnered significant attention as promising alternatives to traditional Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their high theoretical energy density, lower cost of raw materials, enhanced safety features, and reduced environmental footprint. However, the practical application of LSBs faces significant challenges
Lithium-sulfur batteries offer roughly double the energy density compared to the lithium-ion batteries used by automakers in many EVs today, and have the potential to improve fast-charging speeds by up to 50%. The agreement includes both pre-production development of lithium-sulfur battery cells, which Stellantis plans to use in its EVs by 2030.
Lithium-sulfur cells offer significant safety benefits over other battery types due to their operating mechanism. The 'conversion reaction', which forms new materials during charge and discharge, eliminates the need to host Li-ions in materials, and reduces the risk of catastrophic failure of batteries.
In this review, we describe the development trends of lithium-sulfur batteries (LiSBs) that use sulfur, which is an abundant non-metal and therefore suitable as an inexpensive cathode active material. The features of LiSBs are high weight energy density and low cost.
To realize a low-carbon economy and sustainable energy supply, the development of energy storage devices has aroused intensive attention. Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are regarded as one of the most promising next-generation battery devices because of their remarkable theoretical energy density, cost-effectiveness, and environmental benignity.
Disadvantages of lithium-sulfur battery The conductivity of sulfur in lithium-sulfur (Li–S) batteries is relatively low, which can pose a challenge for their performance. Thus, the low conductivity of sulfur (5.0 × 10 −30 S/cm ) always requires conductive additives in the cathode.
Another challenge is the volume expansion of sulfur during charge/discharge cycles, which can lead to electrode degradation and reduced life. In addition, the problems related to the low electrical conductivity of sulfur and the shuttle effect of polysulfides must be solved for the commercial viability of Li/S batteries.
The lithium–sulfur battery (Li–S battery) is a type of rechargeable battery. It is notable for its high specific energy. The low atomic weight of lithium and moderate atomic weight of sulfur means that Li–S batteries are relatively light (about the density of water).
