A woolball‐like nanocomposite of commercial carbon/sulfur microspheres with sulfur content over 81 wt% is successfully fabricated using a new one‐step spray drying approach. The designed polyporous electrodes with a sulfur loading of 2.5 mg cm −2 exhibit excellent Li storage performance. This facile and cost‐effective process of fabricating the carbon/sulfur nanocomposite shows great promise for large‐scale application in practical lithium–sulfur batteries.
