Migo Szeman Ng, Ph.D., Lead Research Scientist at the Electrochemical Safety Research Institute (ESRI) will participate in the ACS Fall 2025 meeting in Washington, DC, on August 19 to present ESRI’s research findings on the topic of magnesium batteries. Magnesium batteries have the potential to offer higher energy density, faster charging capabilities, and improved safety compared to lithium-ion batteries, primarily due to their lower tendency to form dendrites. To enhance the overall performance of Mg batteries, studying the mechanisms of their stripping and plating processes is crucial. This study explored magnesium battery performance, focusing on stripping and plating mechanisms that impact safety and cycle life.
