摘要

Room-temperature sodium-sulfur batteries receive widespread attention due to their high theoretical energy density, low cost, and resource abundance. However, at room temperature, sodium-sulfur batteries face key challenges such as low cathode sulfur conversion efficiency, serious polysulfide shuttle effect, sodium anode dendrite growth, and poor electrolyte stability. To address these issues, extensive research has been devoted to the design of functional materials aimed at enhancing battery performance. This paper summarizes the working principle of room-temperature sodium-sulfur battery, elucidates the mechanisms by which these materials enhance sulfur utilization and suppress polysulfide diffusion. Finally, it discusses current challenges and future development directions, aiming to promote further performance enhancement of room-temperature sodium-sulfur batteries.
