Abstract

Sputtered Pb films have been found to reversibly alloy electrochemically with magnesium in Grignard based electrolytes. The voltage curve shows a single plateau at about 125 mV vs. Mg, corresponding to the formation of Mg2Pb, as confirmed by ex-situ X-ray diffraction. Pb was found to be the highest energy density Mg alloy yet reported, with the lowest voltage and highest volumetric capacity of any Mg alloy.
