We present AIMD assessment for the stability of boron-center salts, Mg[B(Ohfip)4]2 and Mg[B(Otfe)4]2, compared to Mg(TFSI)2, and provide a visible reaction process at the atomic level. -CF3 groups have a...
Rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) are a promising alternative in the post-lithium era for their high volumetric capacity, crustal abundance, and metallic safety. Electrolytes for RMBs have experienced a development process from the initial Grignard compound to today's diversified single magnesium salt. Among them, the boron-based electrolyte plays a significant connecting link between the preceding and the following. This review retrospectively combed the origin and development course of boron-magnesium electrolyte and focuses on the application of three representatives: borohydride, boron-center fluorinated alkoxylate, and closo-borane cluster. Fundamental understandings and typical concerns correlative with the MgÀ B electrolyte designs are highlighted and briefly discussed. Finally, future direction and possible proposals for practical MgÀ B electrolytes are put forward.[a] W.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
