specific capacity in this work has been calculated based on the mass of sulfur in the electrodes before cycling without considering the S loss during the cycling. The performance of NGNS/S composites is much better as compared to the control sample pure S, indicating that NGNS with N-functional groups are not just the contributor of improving conductivity, but have positive effect on the immobilization of S and its discharge products. However, the capacity drop with cycling indicates that the confinement effect of NGNS to S and polysulfides was still not excellent enough in the RT Na-S batteries owing to inherent structural nature of graphene as well as limited N content in NGNS. The S consumption as polysulfides which dissolved into the electrolyte could be the main reason which led to the capacity loss during cycling test. We believe by optimizing the structure and N content of NGNS, the confinement effect of S and polysulfides will be enhanced. This investigation will be conducted as our future work. Figure 7.

To examine the charge transfer resistance and Na+ diffusion kinetics, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) of the NGNS/S-H25 NGNS/S-H45, NGNS/S-H65 and NGNS/S- H86 cells has been conducted before the 1st cycle and after the 300th cycle.
