Researchers at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) have developed a quasi-solid-state magnesium-ion battery with a voltage plateau at 2.4 V and an energy density of 264 Wh/kg. It surpasses the ...

"New magnesium superionic conductor towards lithium-free solid-state batteries." ScienceDaily. ScienceDaily, 4 August 2022. <www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2022 / 08 / 220804102534.htm>.

The magnesium (0) atoms are enshrouded by extremely bulky organic ligands, which protect the magnesium centres from decomposition processes. Sodium (Na) ions are also present in the molecule.

For decades, scientists have struggled to understand what, exactly, is happening inside a solid-state battery in real time, which has made extending its life difficult. Now, a UH research team, in ...

If liquid water exists on the surface of Mars, it is most likely in the form of a briny mixture with magnesium chlorate salts, according to new experiments based on discoveries previously made by ...

Magnesium is a promising alternative to lithium for cost-effective, high-capacity solid-state batteries, mainly due to its abundance, but the poor conductivity of magnesium ions (Mg 2+) in solids ...
