A new class of non-corrosive, highly efficient electrolytes for rechargeable magnesium batteries

Fluorinated alkoxyborate based magnesium electrolytes exhibit a high anodic stability, high ionic conductivity and high coulombic efficiency of magnesium deposition. Owing to the non-corrosive, chemically stable nature and the robust, economic synthesis, this design concept of ion conducting salts opens a promising avenue towards the realization of high-energy magnesium batteries.
