Summary Reader Response Draft 4

 The article “How an accidental discovery made this year could change the world.”, written by Lockett (2022), introduces the discovery of using Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) as a new variation for rechargeable batteries and its benefits. Li-S batteries could be the catalyst in the advancement of batteries. It boasts possibilities of cheaper manufacturing costs, three-fold lighter batteries and finally, a reduction in involuntary battery combustions. However, Li-S batteries typically have a charge cycle of around 1000 charges, half that of Li-I batteries. Thus, in my opinion it is necessary to improve its charge cycles.  However, According to Li. et al., (2015, P. 1), although promising, researchers had difficulties increasing the charge cycle of the Li-S batteries. “Unfortunately, uncontrolled dendritic and mossy lithium growth, as well as electrolyte decomposition inherent in lithium metal-based batteries, cause safety issues and low Coulombic efficiency.” The dissolving of lithium polysulfid
