摘要

Abstract

Two reported three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D-COFs)

COF-300 and COF-301

which have hierarchical porous structures and large pore volumes

were synthesized and employed as host materials for lithium-sulfur batteries. Owing to possessing excellent porosities as well as abundant hydroxyl groups in the pore walls

COF-301 can not only trap lithium polysulfides (PSs)

via

physical adsorption inside the pores

but also capture PSs by chemical interactions to relieve the shuttle effect. Interestingly

it is the first time that 3D-COFs were utilized as host materials for lithium-sulfur batteries as well as hydroxyl groups were introduced into COFs for improving the battery performance. As a result

COF-301@S as cathode material could reserve the capacity of 411.6 mA·h·g

–1

after 500 cycles with only 0.081% fading per cycle at 0.5 C

exhibiting better battery performance compared with COF-300@S. This study not only expands the applications of 3D-COFs but also provides a new route for designing lithium-sulfur batteries.
