Dissoluble AZ31 magnesium alloy anode with WO3-coated Mo cathode for transient batteries in sustainable water splitting
Herein, we report the development of a magnesium alloy (AZ31)-tungsten oxide (WO3) transient battery (TB) utilizing biodegradable tape as structural support. The battery comprises an Mg alloy anode, a WO3-coated Mo foil (WO3/Mo) cathode, and a sodium alginate with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) gel electrolyte. It delivers a charge capacity of 10.5 mAh/cm2, an energy density of 13.96 mWh/cm2, and an open-circuit voltage of 1.59 V at a discharge current density of 0.05 mA/cm2. The battery operates stably for ∼ 8 days, though its performance declines threefold under higher discharge rates. It degrades almost completely in soil within six weeks. When integrated into a two-electrode water-splitting system, the battery successfully facilitates electrolysis, generating hydrogen and oxygen gases while inducing a pH shift from neutral to alkaline within ten minutes. These results highlight its potential for localized pH regulation in environmental settings, such as restoring ocean pH after oil spills, while also serving as a sustainable source of renewable hydrogen energy.
