Reaction kinetics of lithium–sulfur batteries with a polar Li-ion electrolyte: modeling of liquid phase and solid phase processes

The present investigation fits the reaction kinetics of a lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery with polar electrolyte employing a novel two-phase continuum multipore model. The continuum two-phase model considers processes in both the liquid electrolyte phase and the solid precipitates phase, where the diffusion coefficients of the Li
