Abstract
The available capacity of Mg hybrid batteries is closely related to the number of charge carriers within electrolyte solutions. Therefore, in this study, a dual-salt composition capable of supplying high Li+ concentration was prepared. A dual-salt electrolyte consisting of a LiAlCl4 complex (LACC) and LiN(SO2CF3)2 (LiTFSI) was found to be an excellent candidate, providing 2.2 M Li+ concentration along with anodic stability up to 3 V (vs Mg/Mg2+). However, the LACC moiety of the above composition first had to undergo a two-step modification procedure comprising “Mg powder treatment” and “conditioning process” to properly implement Mg deposition and stripping at the Mg anode. Spontaneous substitutions of oxidation states between the anionic Al3+ complex and metallic Mg induced by these processes resulted in the generation of Mg2+ complex species within the LACC solutions. The modified LACC was compatible even with 2 M of LiTFSI, the concentration with which we achieved 150 mA h g–1 capacity of a FePO4 catho...
