Description

Three kinds of electrolytes are investigated to find out the proper electrolyte for magnesium battery. Propylene carbonate electrolyte using magnesium salt of Mg(ClO4)2 shows a higher ionic conductivity than that of dimethyl carbonate and tri(ethyleneglycol dimethyl)ether (TRGDME) but low decomposition potential. The TRGDME electrolyte with 0.5 M Mg(ClO4)2 has a higher ionic conductivity of 6 x 10-4 S cm-1 than that of dimethyl carbonate, but the decomposition voltage of the electrolyte is over 3.0 V which can be used for Mg/S cell
