Carbon-based materials are one of the ideal negative electrode for potassium ion batteries. However, limited active sites and sluggish diffusion kinetics still hinder its commercialization process. To address these problems, we design a novel carbon composite anode, by confining highly reactive short-chain sulfur molecules into nitrogen-doped hollow nanospheres (termed SHC-450). The formation process involves controlled synthesis polyaniline (PANI) as precursors via an Ostwald ripening mechanism subsequent sulfuration treatment. high content constrained (20.94 wt%) considerable N (7.15 ensure sufficient K+ storage in SHC-450. Accordingly, SHC-450 exhibits reversible capacity 472.05 mAh g−1 at 0.1 A good rate capability (172 2 g−1). Thermogravimetric analysis shows that has impressive thermal stability to withstand temperature up 640 °C. Ex situ spectroscopic characterizations reveal provides through K2S.
