To overcome these limitations, a multifunctional aqueous binder, poly(acrylamide\u2010co\u2010lithium acrylate) (AmLA), is proposed to synergistically enhance electrode integrity and suppress lithium polysulfide (LiPS) migration. The copolymer architecture integrates polar amide and lithium carboxylate groups, which establish a robust hydrogen\u2010bonding network for mechanical stability while simultaneously providing strong chemical anchoring sites for LiPS confinement. In situ UV\u2010visible spectroscopy corroborates the significant retardation of LiPS dissolution, confirming the suppression of shuttle reactions. Consequently, AmLA\u2010based sulfur cathodes exhibit superior electrochemical kinetics, delivering a 3.4\u2010fold enhancement in rate capability at 2 C compared to the polyvinylidene fluoride binder.
