Metal chalcogenide hollow polar bipyramid prisms as efficient sulfur hosts for Na-S batteries

Sodium sulfur batteries require efficient sulfur hosts that can capture soluble polysulfides and enable fast reduction kinetics. Here, authors report hollow catalytic bipyramid prism CoS2/C as efficient sulfur carriers, and investigate the reaction mechanism in the sodium sulfur battery.
