A sodium–sulfur (NaS) battery is a type of molten-salt battery that uses liquid sodium and liquid sulfur electrodes. This type of battery has a similar energy density to lithium-ion batteries, and is fabricated from inexpensive and low-toxicity materials.
Sodium–sulfur (Na–S) batteries are considered as a promising successor to the next-generation of high-capacity, low-cost and environmentally friendly sulfur-based battery systems.
Therefore, in future research, carbon-based materials integrated with metal compounds, such as MOF, metal nitrides and metal oxides, can be further studied to eliminate unnecessary capacity degradation. At the same time, the sulfur equivalent cathode material is also a good choice for sodium–sulfur batteries.
In general, the discharge process of room temperature sodium–sulfur batteries include the conversion of sulfur to long-chain soluble sodium polysulfide (Na 2 S n, 4 ≤ n ≤ 8) and the conversion of long-chain sodium polysulfide to solid Na 2 S 2 or Na 2 S.
The main considerations for the design of the room temperature sodium–sulfur battery cathode are the following: excellent electronic conductivity, small electrode polarization, large electrode material porosity, good elasticity, good conductivity, large sulfur loading and the volume change during battery charging and discharging.
