Lithium-sulfur batteries（Li-S batteries） is among the most promising candidates for novel batteries with high ener-gy density.However,the shuttle effects resulted from the highly soluble lithium polysulfides in charging and discharging pro-cesses lead to the loss of active materials,low capacities and inferior cycling performances,hindering the practical application of Li-S batteries.The titanium（Ti）-based compounds with versatile interface properties and easily controllable structures are widely used to suppress the shuttle effects due to their strong adsorption ability and catalytic activity towards polysulfides con-version.The physical confinement,chemical adsorption,and catalytic conversion roles of Ti-based compounds in Li-S batte-ries were introduced.The roles of different kinds of Ti-based compounds in the cathode of Li-S batterie were discussed system-atically.On this basis,the application prospect of Ti-based compounds in Li-S batteries was discussed.
