Abstract

An N skeleton substituent on cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) was meticulously studied to redistribute the charge in phthalocyanine, improve the mass diffusion, and promote the redox kinetics of polysulfides (LiPS), resulting in a significant ultra-low capacity decay of 0.11% at 5C over 500 cycles.
