“…In order to find a suitable Mg anode and promote the application of Mg-air batteries, alloying is an effective and economical method to improve the discharge performance and suppress the self-corrosion. The common added alloying elements include Al [8,10], Zn [11,12], Pb [7,13,14], Li [15][16][17], Ca [6,8,18], Sn [8,9,19,20], In [21,22], Mn [8,19], rare earths (RE) [7,17,23], etc. Among these elements, Li has been proved can effectively improve the discharge performance of Mg anodes [15,17].…”
