Abstract:<p>Due to its high theoretical energy density and relative
abundancy of active materials, the magnesium-sulfur battery has attracted research
attention in recent years. A closely related system, the lithium-sulfur
battery, can suffer from serious self-discharge behavior. Until now, the
self-discharge of Mg-S has been rarely addressed, and even then only
indirectly. Herein, we demonstrate for a wide variety of Mg-S electrolytes and
conditions that Mg-S batteries also suffer from serious self-discharge. Fo… Show more
