The Mg 90 Ce 5 Y 5 + x wt% ZnF 2 ( x = 3, 6, 10, 15) composites were prepared by mechanical ball-milling. The effects of ZnF 2 contents on the hydrogen absorption and desorption properties of Mg 90 Ce 5 Y 5 alloy were investigated by XRD , ICP-OES, TEM, PCT and DSC . The excellent hydriding-dehydriding characteristics of the samples after activation were attributed to the catalytic effect of the MgF 2 and MgZn 2 phases introduced in situ by the addition of ZnF 2 . The Mg 90 Ce 5 Y 5 + 6 wt% ZnF 2 composites exhibit the fastest hydrogen adsorption/desorption kinetics and lower decomposition temperatures. At 360 °C, 4.12 wt% H 2 can be absorbed within 180 s, and completely dehydrogenated within 740 s. In addition, the activation energy of dehydrogenation is reduced to 89.5 kJ/ mol, the optimal dehydrogenation temperature is reduced to 318 °C. It is due to the generation of in situ catalysts that weaken the Mg H bond energy, refine the grain sizes , expand specific surface area and increase hydrogen diffusion paths. However, the improvement of the thermodynamics of the composites is limited, the enthalpy is 75.9 kJ/mol H 2 .

Owing to the increasing global demand for lithium, extraction of lithium from salt lake brine water has received considerable attention. In this study, the magnesium doping to produce Li 1.6 Mg x Mn 1.6-x O 4 (LMMO) was designed to overcome the limitation caused by the loss of Mn due to dissolution. The chemical and morphological properties of the samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The XRD results confirmed that the crystal structure of Li 1.6 Mn 1.6 O 4 was retained after Mg-doping. Scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy showed that LMMO has a flake-shaped structure and the Mg 2+ ions were uniformly distributed in the precursor. The doping of Mg 2+ led to the decrease of Mn 3+ content in the precursor, improving its structural stability. The adsorption capacity of LMMO-6% was 35.6 mg g −1 , which was greater than that of the undoped sample (33.2 mg g −1 ). After the tenth cycle, the dissolution loss of Mn in LMMO-6% was 0.55%, and it is smaller than that for lithium manganese oxide (0.94%). Results confirm that the structural stability was improved compared to undoped adsorbents. Moreover, batch adsorption experiments demonstrated the potential of the HMMO-6% adsorbent to be used for lithium adsorption from real salt lake brine.

Conventional surface coatings exhibit poor self-healing ability, especially under the acid corrosion conditions, which is regarded as a huge challenge for the effective protection of Mg alloy . In this study, a smart self-healing hybrid coating is facilely fabricated, providing an excellent long-term anti-corrosion performance for Mg alloys within the harsh environments. Mesoporous silica (MS) loaded with corrosion inhibitor benzotriazole (BTA) is grafted onto the surface of graphene oxide (GO), to synthesize GO-based nanomaterials , which can be uniformly dispersed in the epoxy (EP) coating through ring opening reaction and form the covalent bonds . Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) results show that the modulus of the EP-GO-MS-BTA hybrid coating remains at 2.57 × 10 11 Ω cm 2 after immersion in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution for 15 days. In contrast to previously reported works that achieved the self-healing ability in acidity, the current EP-GO-MS-BTA coating represents an ultra-high self-healing efficiency of 1.2 × 10 8 Ω cm 2 h −1 under acid 3.5 wt% NaCl condition (pH = 3). Due to the labyrinth effect, the impermeability of epoxy coating is enhanced by the ameliorative dispersity of GO sheet. In addition, the as-prepared GO-based nanomaterial can be used to load corrosion inhibitor BTA and possess H + ion-responsive release property, leading to an improved corrosion protection . Combining the dual effects of superior GO dispersion and smart self-healing, it will provide a green and convenient synthetic method for constructing self-healing coatings with the excellent anticorrosion resistance.

Recently, biochar-related phosphate sorbents have been extensively investigated and achieved significant progress; however, there is still much room for enhancement on capturing performance and recovery of powdery ones after sorption. Herein, a new kind of adsorbent, in which biochar/Mg-Al spinel encapsulated in carboxymethyl cellulose-La hydrogels with cationic polymeric layers, was fabricated, aiming for integrating multi-advantages of each component for enhanced phosphate capture. Batch static experiments were correlated to the phosphate adsorption performance of the adsorbent. The maximum phosphate adsorption capacity of the adsorbent was 89.65 mg P/g at pH = 3. The Langmuir isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model fitted well with the adsorption behavior of the adsorbent. More importantly, this composite adsorbent that integrated with biochar, Mg-Al spinel, cationic polymeric components exhibited favorable selectivity over coexisting anions (Cl - , SO 4 2- , HCO 3 – and NO 3 – ) and performed good reusability after five consecutive cycles. By virtue of the bead-like feature, fixed-bed column experiments demonstrated that the Thomas model fitted the breakthrough curves well under varied experimental conditions. The adsorption mechanism of phosphate on the designed composite adsorbent with multi-components could be described as the electrostatic attraction, ligand exchange and inner-sphere complexation, which might account for the efficient phosphate capturing performance.

Biodegradable magnesium (Mg) and its alloy show huge potential as temporary bone substitute due to the favorable biocompatibility and mechanical compatibility. However, one issue deserves attention is the too fast degradation. In this work, mesoporous bioglass (MBG) with high pore volume (0.59 cc/g) and huge specific surface area (110.78 m 2 /g) was synthesized using improved sol-gel method, and introduced into Mg-based composite via laser additive manufacturing. Immersion tests showed that the incorporated MBG served as powerful adsorption sites, which promoted the in-situ deposition of apatite by successively adsorbing Ca 2+ and HPO 4 2− . Such dense apatite film acted as an efficient protection layer and enhanced the corrosion resistance of Mg matrix, which was proved by the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements. Thereby, Mg based composite showed a significantly decreased degradation rate of 0.31 mm/year. Furthermore, MBG also improved the mechanical properties as well as cell behavior. This work highlighted the advantages of MBG in the fabrication of Mg-based implant with enhanced overall performance for orthopedic application.

Rechargeable Mg-ion batteries typically suffer from either rapid passivation of the Mg anode or severe corrosion of the current collectors by halogens within the electrolyte, limiting their practical implementation. Here, we demonstrate the broadly applicable strategy of forming an artificial solid electrolyte interphase (a-SEI) layer on Mg to address these challenges. The a-SEI layer is formed by simply soaking Mg foil in a tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether solution containing LiTFSI and AlCl3, with Fourier transform infrared and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy measurements revealing spontaneous reaction with the Mg foil. The a-SEI is found to mitigate Mg passivation in Mg(TFSI)2/DME electrolytes with symmetric cells exhibiting overpotentials that are 2 V lower compared to when the a-SEI is not present. This approach is extended to Mg(ClO4)2/DME and Mg(TFSI)2/PC electrolytes to achieve reversible Mg plating and stripping, which is not achieved with bare electrodes. The interfacial resistance of the cells with a-SEI protected Mg is found to be two orders of magnitude lower than that with bare Mg in all three of the electrolytes, indicating the formation of an effective Mg-ion transporting interfacial structure. X-ray absorption and photoemission spectroscopy measurements show that the a-SEI contains minimal MgCO3, MgO, Mg(OH)2, and TFSI–, while being rich in MgCl2, MgF2, and MgS, when compared to the passivation layer formed on bare Mg in Mg(TFSI)2/DME.

A melilite Ba 2 CuGe 2 O 7 ceramic was characterized by low sintering temperature and moderate microwave dielectric properties. Sintered at 960 °C, the Ba 2 CuGe 2 O 7 ceramic had a high relative density 97%, a low relative permittivity ( ε r ) 9.43, a quality factor ( Q×f ) of 20,000 GHz, and a temperature coefficient of resonance frequency (τ f ) −76 ppm/°C. To get a deep understanding of the relationship between composition, structure, and dielectric performances, magnesium substitution for copper in Ba 2 CuGe 2 O 7 was conducted. Influences of magnesium doping on the sintering behavior, crystal structure, and microwave dielectric properties were studied. Mg doping in Ba 2 CuGe 2 O 7 caused negligible changes in the macroscopic crystal structure, grain morphology, and size distribution, while induced visible variation in the local structure as revealed by Raman analysis. Microwave dielectric properties exhibit a remarkable dependence on composition. On increasing the magnesium content, the relative permittivity featured a continuous decrease, while both the quality factor and the temperature coefficient of resonance frequency increased monotonously. Such variations in dielectric performances were clarified in terms of the polarizability, packing fraction, and band valence theory.

Severe and non-uniform degradation of magnesium (Mg) alloys limits their general application in the field of vascular stents . Polymer coatings , which have been widely used in biodegradable materials, can simultaneously reduce degradation and improve the biocompatibility of Mg alloys. In this study, polycaprolactone (PCL) coating was prepared on Mg–Zn–Y–Nd alloy by electrografting. The microstructure of the prepared coating is significantly influenced by current density and monomer concentration, according to scanning electron microscope/energy dispersive spectroscopy results. The electrografted PCL coating has two molecular weights , 15.5 × 10 3 g·mol −1 and 1.08 × 10 3 g·mol −1 , according to gel permeation chromatography results. Electrochemical and immersion tests show that the electrografted PCL coating has better anti-corrosion properties than the PCL coating prepared using the traditional dipping method. Meanwhile, human umbilical vein endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells culture results show that electrografted PCL coating improves the magnesium alloy’s ability to maintain cell viability . Furthermore, arginine-glycine-aspartic acid was fixed on the surface of the PCL coating to confirm the possibility of functionalisation of the electrografted PCL coating. The results show that the composite coating promotes cell adhesion.

The microstructure, electrical conductivity, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) of CNTs/Mg Matrix composites prepared by accumulative roll bonding (ARB) were systematically investigated to understand the effects of CNTs on the electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness property of magnesium. A model based on the shielding of the electromagnetic plane wave was used to theoretically discuss the EMI shielding mechanisms of ARB-processed composites. The experimental results indicated that the methods were feasible to prepare laminated composites. The SE of the material increased gradually with the increase of electrophoretic deposition time. When the electrophoretic deposition time reached 8 min, the value of SE remained 87–95 dB in the frequency range of 8.2–12.4 GHz. The increase in SE was mainly attributed to the improvement in the reflection and multiple reflection losses of incident electromagnetic wave due to the increased amounts of CNTs and interfaces. The methods provided an efficient strategy to produce laminated metal matrix composites with high electromagnetic shielding properties.Keywords:carbon nanotubes;magnesium matrix composites;accumulative roll bonding;electromagnetic shielding property

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.

Transition metals, including Ni, show good catalytic activity in the hydrogen storage reaction of Mg. In the present paper, first-principles calculation is performed to predict and analyze the hydriding reaction of Ni-incorporated Mg and experimental study is used to verify the accuracy of the forecast. Theoretical studies show that the hydriding reaction of Ni-incorporated Mg is a diffusion-controlled process. With Ni incorporation, the energy barrier of H 2 dissociation is significantly decreased and the diffusion becomes the limiting step. Experimental studies confirm the results of theoretical studies. Besides, the material with Ni incorporation shows excellent activation performance and rapid absorption rates, leading to a high hydrogen content of 4.1 wt% in 60 s under 240 °C 3.0 MPa H 2 and a low activation energy of 56.1 kJ mol −1 versus 0.4 wt% and 73.5 kJ mol −1 for the material without Ni incorporation. Atomic Ni only plays a role of catalyst.

The field of the micromotor has undergone continuous progresses, especially in the environmental remediation application. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are few micromotors which can sense, remove and recycle metal ions simultaneously. In this paper, we develop a Janus micromotor consisting of polycaprolactone (PCL) and magnesium (Mg) microparticle synthesized by one-step method. Due to the displacement reaction between Mg and the precious metal ions, the resulting micromotor can be self-propelled in hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) solution. Since the motion velocity is highly dependent on both ion species and their concentrations, the micromotor can function as a motion-based metal ion sensor with good selectivity and sensitivity. In addition, since Mg alone is capable of propelling the whole structure in the presence of chloride ion (Cl − ), the water-driven PCL/Mg micromotor exhibits higher efficiency when utilized in noble metal removal and recycling as compared to that of the stationary one. We thus believe the one-step fabrication, precious metal ion sensing, removal and recycling capabilities make the current micromotor potentially attractive for polluted water monitoring and treatment.
