Abstract
The oxidation and lattice distortion of spinel oxides used for magnesium-ion battery (MIB) cathodes lead to poor stability and cycling performance. Herein, the highly inverted spinel oxide Mg(Al, Fe, Mn, REE)2O4 of i = 0.62 with incorporated rare-earth elements (REE) and decent specific surface area was prepared by utilizing leachate of the pelagic rare-earth-rich clays via a foamed sol–gel/calcination method. Measurements of specific capacity, cycling performance, and multiplicity performance showed that the foamed spinel exhibited distinguished electrochemical performance of MIB. At the current density of 100 mA h–1, the initial discharge and charge specific capacity were 125.7 mAh g–1 and 139.7 mAh g–1, and the reversible discharge and charge specific capacities were maintained as 96.7 mAh g–1 and 102.4 mAh g–1 after 200 cycles of charging–discharging. The Mg-ion diffusion rate for MAFMRO was 1.08 × 10–5 cm2 s–1, which was significantly improved, compared to traditional magnesium spinel anodes. This work highlights an approach for modification of spinel-type cathode materials and the high-value utilization of pelagic clay resources.
