Nanostructured magnesium silicide Mg2Si and its electrochemical performance as an anode of a lithium ion battery

Electrochemical performance of Mg-Si alloys used as anodes of the lithium ion battery significantly improves when the eutectic alloy Mg2Si+Si is subjected to the Rapid Solidification leading to its nanostructuring and in presence of additives to the electrolyte allowing to form a stable SEI layer.227
