Zusammenfassung:The introduction of high‐entropy into Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) has yet to attract attention in the field of lithium‐sulfur battery materials. Herein, we systematically synthesize a library of PBAs from binary to high‐entropy by a facile coprecipitation method. The coordination environment in PBAs is explored by X‐ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy, which together with elemental mapping confirm the successful introduction of all metals. Importantly, electrochemical tests demonstrate that high‐entropy PBA can serve as polysulfide immobilizer to inhibit shuttle effect and as catalyst to promote polysulfides conversion, thereby boosting its outstanding performance. Additionally, a variety of nanocubic metal oxides from binary to senary are fabricated by using PBAs as sacrificial precursors. We believe that a wide range of new materials obtained from our coprecipitation and pyrolysis methodology can promote further developments in research on PBA systems and sulfur hosts. A library of Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) from binary to high‐entropy was fabricated by a facile coprecipitation method. When used as sulfur hosts, high‐entropy PBA can act as polysulfide immobilizers and catalysts to achieve high‐performance lithium‐sulfur batteries. Moreover, metal oxides derived from high‐entropy PBA possess good electronic properties, which can prompt the further research of high‐entropy PBA derivatives.
