Mg–air oxygen shuttle batteries using a ZrO2-based oxide ion-conducting electrolyte†
Abstract
A new concept of an “oxygen shuttle” type battery for Mg–air solid oxide batteries using a Ca-stabilized ZrO2 electrolyte was proposed and studied. The observed open circuit potential and discharge capacity were 1.81 V and 1154 mA h gMg−1 (52% of the theoretical capacity), respectively.
