Abstract:Passivation of the magnesium (Mg) anode in the chloridefree electrolytes using commercially available Mg salts is a critical issue for rechargeable Mg batteries. Herein, a high donor number cosolvent of 1methylimidazolium (MeIm) is introduced into Mg(TFSI) 2 -and Mg-(HMDS) 2 -based electrolytes to address the passivation problem and realize highly reversible Mg plating/stripping. Theoretical calculations and experimental characterization results reveal that the strong coordination ability of MeIm with Mg 2+ ca… Show more
