The commercial applications of rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) are hindered by the slow diffusion kinetic of Mg 2+ ions in cathode materials. To overcome this problem, we design a new Na-Mg hybrid battery with the NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @Carbon (NTP@C) nanoparticles as a cathode material, the Mg metal as an anode and the Mg(TFSI) 2 + NaBH 4 - triglyme/1,2-Dimethoxyethane (DME) as a hybrid electrolyte. For the first time, the Mg(TFSI) 2 is applied as a Mg 2+ ions source in the chlorine-free Na-Mg hybrid electrolyte with NaBH 4 as both Na + ions source and moisture scavenger. The NTP@C/Mg hybrid battery shows excellent electrochemical performance. The corresponding average capacity decay after 1000 cycles is only 0.004% and 0.008% per cycle at 2 C and 10 C, respectively. Even at 20 C, about 60 mAh g −1 can be obtained after 26000 cycles. The impressive capacity retention of 93.7% and 90.2% can be obtained at 5 and 10 C, respectively. The excellent electrochemical performance of the hybrid battery confirms the feasibility using Mg(TFSI) 2 in the chlorine-free hybrid electrolyte for long term cycle. The developed NTP@C/Mg hybrid battery possesses the advantages of excellent electrochemical performances, good safety and low cost, making it promising for the commercial applications, especially for the large-scale energy storages.

Mg metal anodes experience significant passivation of harmful side reactions in conventional electrolyte consisting of magnesium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide (Mg(TFSI) 2 ) in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME), which critically impedes the advancement of high-performance rechargeable magnesium batteries. Herein, an innovative electrolyte system comprising an ultra-dilute 0.02 M Mg(TFSI) 2 in DME with 4-chlorobutyl methyl ether (CME) as co-solvent is strategically devised. This unique formulation effectively suppresses the formation of TFSI − -derived passivation byproducts while simultaneously facilitating the establishment of protective Cl-rich interphase, thereby achieving exceptional reversibility in Mg plating/stripping processes. Remarkably, Mg electrodes demonstrate stable cycling performance with a minimal overpotential of 70 mV at 0.1 mA cm −2 in the optimized 0.02 M Mg(TFSI) 2 -DME/CME electrolyte. More impressively, the system maintains reversible electrochemical operation for 400 h even at 2 mA cm −2 . This work presents a novel electrolyte formulation for overcoming the limitations of Mg metal anode in conventional Mg(TFSI) 2 based electrolytes, offering new perspectives for the development of next-generation rechargeable magnesium batteries.

Due to the good safety and high energy density , rechargeable Mg-metal batteries (RMMBs) have been regarded as a potential competitor of Li-metal batteries (LMBs). However, the Mg(TFSI) 2 -based conventional electrolytes will cause large overpotential in reversible plating/stripping attributed to the high ion transport impedance of the electrolyte decomposition products. Here, an artificial interphase composed of amorphous (a-) MgCl 2 @polymer on the Mg-metal surface is prepared by in-situ chemical reaction of metallic Mg with H 3 PO 4 and SiCl 4 in sequence, and can effectively inhibit the electrolyte decomposition and facilitate Mg 2+ transport, which plays the role of solid electrolyte interface (SEI) on Mg anode. The Mg-Mg symmetrical cell with modified Mg electrode exhibits lower overpotential (~0.25 V) and interfacial impedance than bare Mg electrode in 0.5 M Mg(TFSI) 2 /DME electrolyte. The voltage hysteresis in the Mg-S and Mg-Mo 6 S 8 batteries with the modified Mg anode is greatly improved compared to bare Mg anode. This work provides a new idea for future applications of passivation-free Mg-metal anode technology in the MMBs based on conventional electrolytes.

This study utilized a straightforward one-step method, melt extrusion , to blend polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) with 9,9-bis[4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl]fluorene (BPEF) to fabricate optically transparent polymer blends , utilizing Mg(TFSI) 2 as the catalyst for the ester exchange reaction. All polymer blends demonstrated excellent mechanical and optical properties , achieving high transparency (≥90 %) in the visible spectrum. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) results indicated that the blends formed a thermodynamically homogeneous system. Additionally, gel permeation chromatography (GPC) confirmed the occurrence of ester exchange reactions between PMMA and BPEF in both salted and unsalted blends. Very interestingly, without Mg(TFSI) 2 one hydroxyl group of BPEF is linked to PMMA side group through transesterification reaction, leading to a zero birefringence . Nonetheless, the inclusion of Mg(TFSI) 2 appears to facilitate the ester exchange reaction between both hydroxyl groups of BPEF and a single PMMA chain, which causes a cyclic ring structure. Such cyclic ring structure orients parallel to the planar plan, which then increases n // and also Δn.

Magnesium metal batteries (MMBs) currently face challenges suffering from severe Mg metal passivation and extremely high overpotential in conventional electrolytes. Herein, a strategy of using a low-cost deep eutectic solution (DES) is proposed to modify Mg anode with the monolithic and compact coating of a MgCl 2 -Al-MgCl 2 sandwich structure, enabling the stable and reversible Mg plating–stripping behavior. An organic/nanocrystal hybrid interphase is in-situ built through a facile Mg-Al displacement reaction between aluminum-chloro clusters and Mg in AlCl 3 /Et 3 NHCl solution, and it can effectively minimize the adverse interfacial passivation reaction and surface diffusion barrier, affording the high ion-conduction and electronic insulation. This DES-assisted method guarantees a highly reversible cycling of Mg metal anode (over 5000 h at 0.1 mA cm −2 and 400 h at 2.0 mAh cm −2 ) in Mg(TFSI) 2 /DME electrolyte with the improved interfacial kinetics and low overpotential. Even at a much higher current density of 1 mA cm −2 , the overpotential only undergoes a slight increase from 0.2 V (at 0.1 mA cm −2 ) to 0.23 V. The corresponding full cells with CuS and phenanthraquinone cathodes deliver satisfactory cyclic performance. The DES modification strategy provides a new solution to the design of robust and conductive solid electrolyte interphase for achieving high-voltage and durable MMBs.
