Anthraquinone based polymer as high performance cathode material for rechargeable lithium batteries.

Poly(anthraquinonyl sulfide) is synthesized and investigated as a novel organic cathode material for rechargeable lithium batteries, which shows excellent reversibility and cyclabilty, and gives important insights into developing a new generation of organic cathode materials with higher performance.
