Abstract
Recently, research on polyoxometalates (POMs) has gained significant momentum. Owing to their properties as electronic sponges, POMs catalyst harbor substantial potential in lithium-sulfur battery research. However, POMs undergo a transformation into reduced heteropoly blue (HPB) during electrochemical reactions, which then dissolve into the electrolyte, resulting in catalyst loss. In this research, we amalgamated 18-crown-6 (CR6) with K3PW12O40, (KPW), synthesized a novel POM-based supramolecular compound, and integrated it with graphene oxide (GO) to fabricate a multi-functional composite polypropylene (PP) separator KPW-CR6/GO/PP. The crown ether array was employed to immobilize POM and construct ion transport channels, thereby enhancing the Li+ migration rate and capturing polysulfides. Subsequently, leveraging the stable structure and redox properties of POM, the polysulfide is catalyzed to transform and inhibit the shuttle effect, thereby protecting the Li anode. The lithium-sulfur batteries with the Crown ether-POM supramolecular compound separators, exhibit enhanced capacity and stability (1073.3 mAh g-1 at 1.0 C, and 81.5 % retention rate after 250 cycles). The battery (S loading: 3.2 mg cm-2) presents an initial specific discharge capacity of 543.4 mAh g-1 at 0.5 C, with 89.8 % of the capacity retained after 160 cycles. This underlines the practical application potential of Crown ether-POM supramolecular materials in Li-S batteries.

Abstract
The well-known "shuttle effect" of the intermediate lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) and low sulfur utilization hinder the practical application of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. Herein, we describe a novel C60 -S supramolecular complex with high-density active sites for LiPS adsorption that was formed by a simple one-step process as a cathode material for Li-S batteries. Benefiting from the cocrystal structure, 100 % of the C60 molecules in the complex can offer active sites to adsorb LiPSs and catalyze their conversion. Furthermore, the lithiated C60 cores promote internal ion transport inside the composite cathode. At a low electrolyte/sulfur ratio of 5 μL mg-1 , the C60 -S cathode with a sulfur loading of 4 mg cm-2 exhibited a high capacity of 809 mAh g-1 (3.2 mAh cm-2 ). The development of the C60 -S supramolecular complex will inspire the invention of a new family of S/fullerenes as cathodes for high-performance Li-S batteries and extend the application of fullerenes.

Abstract
The areal and volumetric capacities are important metrics in practical deployment of advanced energy storage systems with the imposed constraints of device volume and chip area. Conductive carbons are promising sulfur host materials for improving areal capacity in lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries, but they face a few congenital deficiencies, such as low tap density and weak polysulfide entrapment ability, resulting in poor volumetric performance. Here, we report one type of cathode system based on flower-like porous Ti3C2T x (FLPT) without the incorporation of any carbon hosts or conductive additives. The resultant FLPT-S electrode synchronously acquires a high areal capacity of 10.04 mAh cm-2 and ultrahigh volumetric capacity of 2009 mAh cm-3. Furthermore, ex situ electron paramagnetic resonance and UV-visible spectra have demonstrated that FLPT enables a fast dynamic equilibrium between S62- anion and S3•- radical during cycling, which promotes the redox reactions of sulfur species.
