Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.
MIL-47/CNT interlayers improve Li-S capacity, long-term cycling, rate performance and high-loading/pouch-cell practicality.
Caveat: Energy density is lower than the no-interlayer battery at standard sulfur loading but superior at higher sulfur loading according to the authors' calculations.

MIL-47/CNT restrains polysulfide shuttling through strong adsorption and blocking of LPS permeation.
Caveat: Adsorption/permeation observations are partly qualitative colour tests.

The flower-like MIL-47 nanosheet morphology exposes active sites and supports fast mass/electron/ion transfer for polysulfide anchoring and conversion.
Caveat: Direct kinetic mechanism is inferred from combined morphology, porosity and electrochemical comparisons rather than directly imaging transport pathways.

Conductive MIL-47 and the high-conductivity MIL-47/CNT interlayer accelerate Li-S redox kinetics.
Caveat: CNT support also contributes to composite conductivity; pristine CNT numeric conductivity is blocked by unavailable SI figure body.
p005-p007 · Results and discussion · Fig. S3; Fig. 3f; Fig. 5 · Linked to 5 structured results
Charge/discharge-dependent XRD peak shifts suggest reversible Li+ insertion/extraction in MIL-47 contributes to LSB capacity.
Caveat: The supporting XRD patterns are in SI Fig. S5, whose figure body was not available in the supplied SI text; the claim is extracted from the main-text description.
