Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Perovskite-type SrFeO3 was applied to a cathode material of magnesium batteries. When a SrFeO3 cathode was used with a MgClO4/PC electrolyte solution and a Mg metal anode, SrFeO3 underwent extraction of oxide ions and changed into SrFeOx (x: between 2.75 and 3.0) in the early period of discharge, followed by a two phase coexistence reaction between a perovskite-type phase SrFeOx (x: near 2.75) and a brownmillerite-type phase SrFeO2.5. Thermodynamic consideration on the basis of relationship between the average valence number of iron ions and the number of charge transfer suggested that the oxide ions extracted from SrFeOx and magnesium ions in the electrolyte solution formed first MgO2 and then MgO. In the case that discharge was terminated in the stage of MgO2 formation, subsequent charge was possible. It resulted in a specific charge-discharge capacity of 60-70 mAh/g.
