Article Synopsis
- Magnesium rechargeable batteries (MRBs) are emerging as a promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries, providing high energy storage with better safety and cost efficiency.
- Researchers have created an ultraporous cubic spinel MgMnO (MMO) using a novel freeze-dry process, which initially has a discharge capacity of 160 mAh/g.
- After heat treatment to remove surface hydroxy groups, the discharge capacity improved to 270 mAh/g, reaching its theoretical capacity and enhancing the battery's efficiency by stabilizing the cubic spinel phase for better magnesium ion movement.
An ionic liquid domain was successfully prepared outside double-stranded DNA by fixing 1-alkyl-3-methyl-imidazolium (C(n)MI) cations on the phosphate groups of DNA. First, four species of ionic liquid were made using phosphoric acid di-n-butyl ester and C(n)MI (n=2,4,8, and 12) as a low molecular weight model. They were obtained as liquid salts, and their ionic conductivity ranged up to 10(-5)Scm(-1) at 50 degrees C.
