The lithium-sulfur battery is an attractive energy-storage device with low cost and high energy density. However, its development is still restricted by “shuttle effect”, lithium dendrite growth and safety problem. Herein, a novel PEO-PAN-LLZO composite gel polymer electrolyte (CGPE) was designed to overcome these issues. A porous composite membrane with excellent mechanical and interfacial properties was formed after casting dispersion of PAN, PEO, LLZO sheets, which can effectively absorb electrolyte, inhibit “shuttle effect” and protect lithium anode. A conductive acetylene black layer was coated on the membrane to further hinder the migration and enhance the redox kinetics of polysulfides. The CGPE based lithium-sulfur battery displays remarkably high specific capacities (1459 and 942 mAh/g at 0.1 and 1C respectively) and outstanding cycling performance (555 mAh/g at 1C after 500 cycles, average decay/cycle of 0.082%). The unique CGPE is promising for the practical application of high-performance lithium-sulfur battery.
