Lithium-sulfur batteries suffer from severe self-discharge due to polysulfide dissolution into electrolytes. In this work, a chemically anchored polymer-coated (CAPC) sulfur electrode was prepared, through chemical bonding by coordinated Cu ions and cross-linking, to improve cyclability for Li/S batteries. This electrode retained specific capacities greater than 665 mAh g(-1) at high current density of 3.35 A g(-1) (2C rate) after 100 cycles with an excellent Coulombic efficiency of 100%.
