Why is this work in the frame?

A frame that forgets how it found something cannot be audited. These are the routes that admitted this work.

Canadian funderA Canadian agency funded it. The work may carry no Canadian affiliation at all.

No Canadian affiliation. An affiliation-only frame — the usual design — would never have seen this work. It is one of the works that make the case for inverting the frame.

Abstract

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with controllable shapes and sizes show a great potential in Li-S batteries. However, neither the relationship between shape and specific capacity nor the influence of MOF particle size on cyclic stability have been fully established yet. Herein, MIL-96-Al with various shapes, forming hexagonal platelet crystals (HPC), hexagonal bipyramidal crystals (HBC), and hexagonal prismatic bipyramidal crystals (HPBC) are successfully prepared via cosolvent methods. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that the HBC shape with highly exposed (101) planes can effectively adsorb lithium polysulfides (LPS) during the charge/discharge process. By changing the relative proportion of the cosolvents, HBC samples with different particle sizes are prepared. When these MIL-96-Al crystals are used as sulfur host materials, it is found that those with a smaller size of the HBC shape deliver higher initial capacity. These investigations establish that different crystal planes have different adsorption abilities for LPS, and that the MOF particle size should be considered for a suitable sulfur host. More broadly, this work provides a strategy for designing sulfur hosts in Li-S batteries.
