The advancement of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries has been hindered by the shuttle effect lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) and sluggish redox kinetics. engineering functional hybrid separators is a relatively simple effective coping strategy. Layered transition-metal carbides, nitrides, carbonitrides, class emerging two-dimensional materials termed MXenes, have gained popularity as catalytic for Li-S due to their metallic conductivity, tunable surface chemistry, terminal groups. Nonetheless, self-stacking flaws easy oxidation MXenes pose disadvantages, developing MXene-based heterostructures anticipated circumvent these issues yield other remarkable physicochemical characteristics. Herein, recent advances in construction heterostructured improving performance are reviewed. diverse conformational forms constitutive relationships with LiPS conversion discussed, general principles MXene chemistry alterations heterostructure designs enhancing electrochemical summarized. Lastly, tangible challenges addressed, advisable insights future research shared. This review aims highlight immense superiority battery separator modification inspire researchers.
