Abstract
Transition metal sulphides have been widely studied in the field of thermal batteries, but their low decomposition temperature, low conductivity, and discharge capacity are still pressing issues hampering their practical application. Inspired by the strategy of entropy increase in sodium-ion and lithium-ion batteries, herein, we propose an Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 cathode material possessing the advantages of electrochemically active elements Fe, Co, and Ni. Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 exhibited a thermal decomposition temperature of 591 °C, which was significantly higher than that of FeS2. Furthermore, the wettability of the LiCl–KCl molten salt on the surface of Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 was improved and its contact area was 1.1 times that of FeS2, providing more active sites for electrochemical reactions and effectively improving the electrochemical performance of the material. Moreover, it exhibited a specific capacity (cutoff voltage ≥1.5 V) of 584 mA h g−1 at 500 °C with a discharge current of 100 mA cm−2, representing an increase of approximately 96.5% compared to that of CoS2. Thus, this work presents a new strategy for the design of high-performance cathode materials for thermal batteries.
1. Introduction
Thermal batteries have made a significant contribution to the development of military equipment, and their discharge performance is largely influenced by their cathode materials, with transition metal sulfides MS2 (M = Fe, Co, and Ni) being the most widely used.1–6 Among them, FeS2 is a cost-effective option that offers a high lithium potential (2.1 V) and a high theoretical specific capacity of the first discharge platform (335 mA h g−1). However, it has lower thermal stability (thermal decomposition temperature of 550 °C) and high resistivity (0.036 Ω cm).2 Although CoS2 has better thermal stability (thermal decomposition temperature of 650 °C) and resistivity (0.002 Ω cm), it is relatively expensive and has a lower lithium potential (2.0 V) and lower theoretical specific capacity (290 mA h g−1) in the first discharge platform.3,7,8 NiS2 has a high theoretical specific capacity of the first discharge plateau (437 mA h g−1), and its thermal stability and conductivity are in between FeS2 and CoS2. However, it has a lower potential for lithium (2.0 V) and a discharge product with lower conductivity.3 Although monometallic sulfides have their own advantages and disadvantages, the ongoing replacement of current weapon systems necessitates even higher and more comprehensive requirements for cathode materials in thermal batteries. Therefore, the development of cathode materials with superior thermal stability and electrochemical properties is necessary.
Previous studies have demonstrated that entropy increase is a promising strategy to address the intrinsic limitations of battery materials. This strategy involves designing materials with multiple components and changing the types of elements to create more combinations of potential interactions, which ultimately stabilize the crystal structure and significantly enhance the performance of the electrode materials.9–12 In cathode materials, due to the diffusion retardation effect of the entropy increasing strategy, layered transition metal oxides, polyanionic compounds, and Prussian blue analogues can inhibit the deleterious phase evolution during electrochemical processes and thus enhance their electrochemical performance.10,13 For example, Pei et al.14 prepared a medium-entropy cathode material, Li1.46Ni0.32Mn1.2O4−x (0 < x < 4), using this strategy, which improved the structural stability and discharge capacity of the cathode material by altering its lithium-ion storage mechanism through the medium-entropy state generated by partial cation disorder and bypassing the symmetry changes inherent in the conventional spinel phase. Ding et al.15 designed a nickel-rich oxide cathode material (Ni-rich oxide cathode) that is capable of controlling the structural changes and increasing the electrode operating potential, thereby improving the performance of sodium-ion batteries. In addition, in metal oxide anodes, the “cocktail effect” of multi-element components can be attributed to the transformation of the initial structure into a stable self-assembled structure during cycling, which promotes the faster conduction of electrons and ions. In the case of solid-state electrolytes, the lattice distortion effect can alter the potential energy of alkali ions and promote the generation of diffusion networks, thereby enhancing their ionic conductivity.
This strategy has been extensively applied in sodium-ion and lithium-ion batteries, allowing us to gain valuable experience from existing reports to guide the design of cathode materials for thermal batteries. In this work, we utilized a high-temperature sintering technique to develop a ternary metal sulfide cathode, Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2, focusing on improving its thermal stability and specific capacity. This material showed excellent properties by combining the advantages of the Fe, Co, and Ni electrochemically active elements. The comparative analysis with conventional sulfide cathodes revealed that Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 exhibited superior thermal stability, reduced contact angle, and optimized electrochemical characteristics. Its enhanced thermal stability ensures the high utilization efficiency of electrode materials, which in turn extends the lifespan of the battery. Meanwhile, the optimized electrochemical properties enhanced the battery efficiency by improving the conductivity and mitigating the energy loss. These optimized attributes position this ternary sulfide as a promising cathode candidate for energy storage applications and provide valuable insights for the design of thermal batteries that require high capacity and extended operational lifespan.
2. Experimental
2.1 Material preparation
The raw materials used in this study were acquired from commercial suppliers and of high analytical purity. Firstly, 1.2 g of sublimated sulfur powder with 99.8% purity and 0.6 g of FeCoNi alloy powder were weighed. Subsequently, the powders were combined in an onyx mortar and ground for 15 to 20 min. After grinding, the mixture was poured into a crucible and heated to 500 °C in flowing argon gas at a rate of 10 °C per min, and then heated in a tube furnace for 4 h. Finally, desulfurization was carried out at 400 °C for 4 h to remove the excess sulfur during the experiment (Fig. 1).

2.2 Material characterization
The physical structure and chemical composition of the prepared materials were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD, Bruker D8 Advance, Cu-Kα radiation, λ = 1.5406 Å) in the 2θ diffraction angle range of 20–80°. Its elemental composition was analyzed via ICP-OES (Agilent 5110(OES)). The emission lines of Fe (238.204 nm), Co (238.892 nm), Ni (231.604 nm), and S (181.972 nm) were selected as analytical lines. The sample solution was prepared by soaking in aqua regia (HCl
:
HNO3 = 1
:
1) for 2 h, followed by microwave digestion with HF. The digested solutions were evaporated to near dryness and HNO3 added, and then diluted to 50 mL with ultrapure water. Complete digestion was confirmed by examining the clarity and transparency of the solution, which is critical for ensuring analytical accuracy. The calibration curves were constructed using six-point standards for Fe, five-point standards for Co and Ni, and four-point standards for S. Thermal stability was analyzed using a simultaneous thermal analysis system (TG-DSC, STA449 F3) with an argon atmosphere, at a heating rate of 10 °C per min and a temperature range of 30–800 °C. The morphology and elemental distribution of the samples were observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM, Phenom Prox, and ZEISS Sigma 360), coupled with energy spectroscopy analysis (EDS). The specific surface area was measured with a fully automated specific surface technology porosity analyzer (BET, Quantachrome Nova 4000e). The contact angle test system (TC700pro, Data physics) was used to evaluate the wettability of the solid surfaces. This system was first heated to the desired temperature (500 °C), and 15 mg of LiCl–KCl molten salt electrolyte particles were placed on the electrode substrate in a glove box in an inert atmosphere, and the contact angle between the sample and the electrode substrate was determined by waiting for the molten salt electrolyte to melt.
2.3 Assembly of single cells
All the electrode material pre-treatment and cell assembly processes were carried out in a controlled drying environment, with a dew point maintained at less than −50 °C. In the case of the anode in the single cell, a 32 mm diameter Li–B alloy was used, containing 55 wt% Li. The electrolyte separator was composed of a powder mixture consisting of 55 wt% MgO and 45 wt% (LiCl–KCl). The cathode used consisted of a mass fraction of 80% active substance mixed with 20% electrolyte milling. The single cells were assembled using a layered pressing technique in a mold with a diameter of 32 mm and subjected to a pressure of 150 MPa, followed by demoulding to obtain the final cells.
2.4 Electrochemical measurement
The batteries underwent constant current discharge testing using an Arbin BT-ML battery testing system, with constant current discharge current densities of 100, 300, 500, and 1000 mA cm−2, at a test temperature of 500 °C, with a cut-off voltage of 0 V. The pulse tests were carried out with pulse current densities of 300 and 1000 mA cm−2 for 1 s at 500 °C. The steady current density was 100 mA cm−2 for 30 s. All electrochemical performance tests for the single cells in this study were conducted in a glove box under an argon atmosphere.
3. Results and discussion
3.1 Microstructure features of the synthesized samples
The phase structure of the materials was characterized by XRD, as shown in Fig. 2. All the characteristic peaks of Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 correspond well to the face-centered structures of FeS2 (PDF#97-000-0316), NiS2 (PDF#04-004-3801) and CoS2 (PDF#97-005-6017), with no additional diffraction peaks detected. This indicates that the samples have high purity. Notably, compared with the positions of the (200) and (311) peaks of the three sulfides, shifts in the diffraction peaks were observed in the final sample. Despite these shifts, the peak intensities and overall lattice positions remained consistent. This phenomenon is likely attributed to the different ionic radii of Fe3+, Ni2+, and Co2+, which affect the spacing of the crystal planes when bonding with S2−.16–18 To gain further insights into the crystal structure of Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2, Rietveld refinement was performed on the XRD data. The results indicate that Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 belongs to the cubic crystal system with the space group Pa
(205), exhibiting a structure similar to FeS2, CoS2, and NiS2. The refined lattice constants for Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 are a = b = c = 5.595735 Å, with α = β = γ = 90°. Additionally, the low Rwp value of 3.168% obtained by Rietveld refinement indicates a good fit between the experiment and the simulation. ICP (inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy) was used to further determine the elemental content of the samples twice, and the results are shown in Tables 1 and 2. The correlation coefficients of the calibration curves for all elements were ≥0.999. This demonstrates the robust linear relationship between the analyte concentration and signal intensity, confirming the reliability of the test results. Further calculations indicated that the molar ratio of Fe, Co, and Ni atoms in the material is approximately 5

The SEM and mapping images of the Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 sample prepared by high-temperature sintering are shown in Fig. 3. In Fig. 3a, it can be observed that the synthesized ternary sulfide sample consists of particles with irregular shapes, which have an average size of approximately 30 μm. The higher-magnification SEM images (Fig. 3f and g) reveal that these micrometer-scale particles are formed through the agglomeration of numerous nanoparticles. The elemental distribution diagram shows that the four elements, S, Fe, Co, and Ni, are uniformly distributed and almost completely overlapped, further confirming that the synthesized material is a single-phase Fe–Co–Ni ternary sulfide. In this work, it can be judged that the high-purity Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 cathode material with uniformly dispersed elements was successfully synthesized.

The N2 adsorption–desorption curve of the sample, as presented in Fig. 4, corresponds to a type IV isotherm, with an average pore diameter of 20.53 nm. In addition, the specific surface area of Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 obtained from the BET test is approximately 1.57 m2 g−1, which is higher than that in the previous study.19 This enhanced specific surface area contributes to improving the kinetic performance of the electrode by providing more active sites.18,20,21

Fig. 5 exhibits the TG-DSC curves of Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2. The sample started to decompose at about 591 °C. Compared with FeS2 (550 °C),2 the thermal stability of Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 is significantly improved. The DSC curve displays an obvious endothermic peak, which corresponds with the mass loss observed in the TG curve, suggesting the potential endothermic decomposition of the material at this temperature range. The peak temperature of the DSC endothermic peak (643.1 °C) closely aligns with the decomposition termination temperature (647.3 °C) observed in the TG analysis, indicating the completion of the endothermic decomposition process.

The contact angle can describe the wettability of the electrolyte to the electrode material, and according to Young's equation, the smaller the contact angle, the better the electrolyte wettability on the electrode surface.22 The contact angles of the LiCl–KCl molten salt electrolyte on Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2, Fe0.5Co0.5S2, CoS2 and FeS2 substrates were measured at 500 °C, and found to be 114.1° (Fig. 6b), 127.9° (Fig. 6c), 124.6° (Fig. 6d), and 131.9° (Fig. 6e), respectively. Among them, Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 has the smallest contact angle and almost 1.1 times the contact area of FeS2, and the test results show that it has optimal wettability with LiCl–KCl molten salt electrolyte. The strong wettability of the molten salt electrolyte on the electrode increases the surface area available for electrochemical reactions. This larger contact area facilitates the creation of more active sites for ion and electron exchange at the interface between the electrode and electrolyte.19,23,24 As a result, the interfacial contact resistance is reduced, which in turn improves the overall electrochemical performance of the material.

3.2 Electrochemical performance of Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2
Fig. 7a–c show the discharge curves of the single cell at various current densities and 500 °C. Under a discharge current of 100 mA cm−2, the single cell exhibited three distinct and stable discharge platforms at 2.04 V, 1.82 V, and 1.64 V, demonstrating that this material can provide high precision voltage during operation. As the discharge current density increased to 300 mA cm−2, the voltage plateau decreased by approximately 0.06 V. At a higher current density of 1000 mA cm−2, the discharge curve was smooth, with no distinct plateau observed. Meanwhile, as shown in Fig. 7b and c, the curves obtained from repeated tests at 100 mA cm−2 and 300 mA cm−2 demonstrate excellent overlap, indicating that the prepared materials possess good repeatability. At a cut-off voltage of ≥1.5 V, it delivered specific capacities of 584 mA h g−1, 512.9 mA h g−1, and 457 mA h g−1 at current densities of 100, 300, and 500 mA cm−2, respectively. When the cut-off voltage increased to ≥1.7 V, the specific capacities of the material at current densities of 100, 300, and 500 mA cm−2 were 310 mA h g−1, 291 mA h g−1, and 285 mA h g−1, respectively. Notably, this minimal variation in capacity across different current densities (10–500 mA cm−2) demonstrates the exceptional rate capability of Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2. Fig. 7d compares the discharge capacities of different sulfide cathode materials at a discharge capacity of 100 mA cm−2 with an open-circuit voltage and a cut-off voltage of 1.5 V.17,25–32 Among them, Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 exhibited a superior electrochemical performance, as can be seen from the increase in open-circuit voltage and discharge specific capacity.

Polarisation resistance, which includes electrochemical polarisation, concentration polarization, and ohmic polarisation, significantly influences the discharge characteristics of sulfides. The pulse tests were performed at 500 °C and the discharge stability and polarisation resistance of the material obtained are shown in Fig. 7. As shown in Fig. 7e, discharge was performed at a 30 s steady current density (100 mA cm−2) and 1 s pulsed current density (300 mA cm−2) for 37 times. Fig. 7f shows the curves for the material discharged at 30 s steady current density (100 mA cm−2) and 1 s pulsed current density (1 A cm−2) for 35 times. The polarised internal resistance of a single cell under the corresponding conditions was calculated separately using the following equation:
where
R is the total polarisation, Δ
U is the voltage drop induced by the pulse current, and Δ
I is the difference between the constant current and the pulse current.
1,33,34 It can be observed that the battery maintained a relatively stable discharge plateau and polarisation resistance during pulse discharge, and the polarisation internal resistance increased sharply when the third discharge plateau ended. The magnitude of the average polarisation resistance was calculated based on the polarisation resistance curves, which was 0.0307 Ω for a pulse current density of 300 mA cm
−2 and 0.0249 Ω for 1000 mA cm
−2. Compared with the results in a previous study, the discharge performance of this material shows notable improvements in pulse behavior. This enhancement can be attributed to the increased wettability of the electrode, which leads to a larger contact area between the electrode and the electrolyte. As a result, the ion and electron exchange at the electrode/electrolyte interface is improved, interfacial impedance is minimized, and the overall discharge stability is enhanced.

4. Conclusions
A novel ternary metal sulfide Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 cathode material was prepared using high-temperature sintering. The test results showed that this material has enhanced thermal stability and excellent wettability with LiCl–KCl molten salt electrolyte. It also exhibited a good electrochemical performance, with a specific capacity of approximately 584 mA h g−1 at a discharge capacity of 100 mA cm−2 (cut-off voltage of 1.5 V), which is better than that of the commonly used sulfide cathode materials. Meanwhile, this material showed an improved pulse performance, reduced discharge polarization, and enhanced discharge stability. As a result, the Fe0.5Co0.2Ni0.3S2 cathode material shows potential for application in thermal batteries, providing a stable discharge performance, high specific capacity, high power, and long-term durability.
