By contrast, the issues of self-corrosion and chunk effect are inevitable and, therefore, are major issues hindering the broad utilization of aqueous magnesium batteries. Basically, Mg anode efficiency is below 50% when discharging in a commonly used electrolyte (e.g. 3.5 wt% NaCl solution) under a low current density (e.g. 1 mA cm –2) .
Some improvements in anode properties have been achieved and thus a large number of alloys are in the list of potential anodes for aqueous magnesium batteries, including Mg-Al-based, Mg-Li-based, Mg-Zn-Y and Mg-RE alloys, etc., as comprehensively summarized in recent papers [3, 9, 57, 58].
The Mg-air full cell with 0.1 m citrate as additive displayed remarkably boosted cell voltage (from 1.54 V to 1.63 V) and energy density (from 2200 Wh kg –1 to 3000 Wh kg –1 based on anode mass) at current density of 1 mA cm –2. This work demonstrates that Mg 2+ complexing agents possess performance booster capacity for aqueous Mg batteries.
By contrast, primary Mg batteries, particularly aqueous electrolyte based system, have been accepted as power sources for many practical applications enabled by excellent safety (due to the usage of stable aqueous electrolytes) and improved capacity (higher than 1 Ah g –1 ). Fig. 1.
Additionally, aqueous Mg batteries recently displayed great potential to be employed as power supply devices for implantable bioelectronics due to the good biocompatibility of Mg with the human body , , , .
Mg anodes with low self-corrosion rates are critical for aqueous Mg batteries with high capacity and energy density. Therefore, any strategy that can decrease anode self-corrosion (rather than corrosion at OCP) enables the improvement of battery properties.
