Abstract:

Rechargeable magnesium batteries(RMBs) are a promising candidate for the development of high-energy storage systems due to its superiorities of relatively high theoretical volumetric capacity, high crustal abundance, low cost, especially environmental friendliness and safety. It is worth noting that the formation of a passivation film on the surface of magnesium(Mg) anode in most conventional electrolytes is an enormous obstacle, which leads to irreversible deposition/stripping behavior of Mg and thus limits the implementation of commercial RMBs. Researches focusing on electrolytes to tackle the obstacle have been in the bottleneck due to the restrictions of expensive price, complex synthesize process, low ionic conductivity, poor compatibility with cathodes and anodes simultaneously, etc. Facilitating modification of anode coming back to conventional electrolytes in RMBs is an alternatively promising avenue. This review summarizes recent studies concerning anode modification including alloy anode materials and formation of artificial interphase. Based on the analysis and comparison of previous researches, we propose conclusion and perspective for further development of RMBs.
