Abstract

Redox-active sulfurized poly(methylene polysulfides) −[CH2S y ] n − (y = 4–22) were prepared by deep sulfurization of poly(methylene di- and trisulfides) with elemental sulfur. The use of the substances obtained as an active cathode material of rechargeable lithium cells ensures their cycling with a specific discharge capacity of 418–550 mA h g−1.
