Cell Lab Lithium-Magnesium (Li-Mg) Alloy Chip [Ø16 mm × 0.6 mm, 10 g/bottle]

High-energy-density Li-Mg alloy chip for safer and longer-lasting Li-ion battery anodes

General Description

The Cell Lab Lithium-Magnesium (Li-Mg) Alloy Chip is engineered as a next-generation anode material for lithium-ion batteries. With its higher energy density, reduced volume expansion, and superior cycling performance, Li-Mg alloy is widely applied in battery R&D, energy storage, and electrochemical research laboratories.

Compared with pure lithium electrodes, Li-Mg alloy electrodes provide better structural stability, longer cycle life, and enhanced safety, while still maintaining high specific capacity. Each chip is precisely manufactured in dry-room conditions to reduce oxygen contamination and ensure consistent performance.

⚠️ Handling Note: This product must be opened and processed inside a glove box with Argon atmosphere and relative humidity below 2% RH.

FAQ

Q1: What are the advantages of Li-Mg alloy over pure lithium?
It offers higher stability, reduced expansion, and safer operation, while maintaining high energy density.

Q2: How should these alloy chips be handled?
They must be opened in a glove box with Argon atmosphere and humidity <2% RH.

Q3: Are these chips considered hazardous for shipping?
Yes. They are classified as hazardous materials (hazmat) and require specialised packaging and shipping.

Q4: Can the magnesium content be customised?
Yes. We can provide custom Mg ratios depending on research requirements.

Q5: Why are black spots visible on the chips?
They are due to residual oxygen and can be removed using a nylon brush or stainless-steel scalpel.
