Abstract In the press of energy crisis, the rapid development of electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage devices need to rely on lithium secondary batteries with higher energy density. Sulfur electrode of lithium-sulfur batteries has attracted a lot of attention due to its high theoretical specific capacity and energy density. In addition, elemental sulfur has the advantages of abundant reserves, low cost and non-toxicity, which could make lithium-sulfur batteries more competitive, and be considered as one of the most promising secondary batteries. However, the application of lithium-sulfur batteries is still restricted due to the low conductivity, shuttle effect, volume expansion, lithium dendrite and so on. Therefore, in addition to improving the conductivity of the material, the researchers studied the cathode materials and interlayer mainly from how to limit the shuttle effect of polysulfides and buffer the volume expansion of the cathode. It is found that metal compounds based cathode materials can improve the rate performance and cycle stability of lithium-sulfur batteries, which are better than the carbon based and polymer based cathode materials. In addition, metal compounds as interlayers can also effectively alleviate these problems, which can better inhibit the dissolution and diffusion of polysulfides, reduce the shuttle effect and improve the electrochemical performance of lithium-sulfur batteries. Some metal oxides, metal sulphides, metal nitrides and metal phosphates have made great progress as cathode materials or interlayers for lithium-sulfur batteries. For some polar metal compounds, they can not only chemisorption intermediate polysulfide during the charge and discharge process, effectively improving the cycle performance of sulfur cathode, but also deliver electrocatalytic activity in redox reaction, thus promoting the polysulfides conversion and improving the rate property of sulfur cathode. This paper introduces the latest research progress of metal compounds based cathode materials and interlayer for lithium-sulfur batteries and prospects their future development. We expect this review to provide a reference for the preparation of cathode materials and interlayers with excellent performance.
