Japan develops low-cost, high-performance magnesium batteries

Lithium batteries are widely used in smart phones and laptops today, but lithium is a rare metal, which is expensive and has poor heat resistance. Japanese researchers reported a few days ago that they have used magnesium to develop a battery that has higher charge and discharge voltages and a much lower cost than lithium batteries.

Researchers from Kyoto University in Japan reported in the online edition of the new issue of the British “Scientific Report” that magnesium has many advantages over lithium, such as the melting point of lithium is about 180 degrees Celsius, and the melting point of magnesium is as high as about 650 degrees Celsius. It is therefore safer and magnesium reserves are much richer than lithium.

However, the development of magnesium batteries is also facing some technical difficulties, such as the previous has not been able to find a suitable cathode material, but also lack of electrolytes can help stabilize the charge and discharge.

A research team led by Professor Kyoto University’s Nichimoto Xiqing discovered that a magnesium-based battery can be fabricated using a ferro-silicon compound as a battery cathode and an organic solvent containing cesium as an electrolyte. This type of battery has a capacity 1.3 times that of a lithium battery. Its discharge voltage is also 2 volts higher than that of a lithium battery, and it achieves stable charge and discharge. The material cost is only about 10% of a lithium battery.

The research team believes that by improving the electrolyte of this magnesium battery, it can further increase the amount of charge. The team is preparing to conduct further research to reduce the voltage difference between the charging and discharging of magnesium batteries and reduce the energy loss so as to achieve practical application at an early date.

Plastic Base Tool Bag

Plastic base Tool Bag Tote is a type of tool bag that features a rigid plastic base to provide added stability and protection for the tools inside. The plastic base helps to keep the bag upright and prevents it from sagging or collapsing under the weight of heavy tools.


The rest of the bag is typically made from durable materials such as heavy-duty nylon or canvas, and it may feature additional pockets and compartments for organizing smaller items such as screws, nails, and drill bits.

Plastic base tool bag totes are popular among professionals in construction, plumbing, electrical, and other trades that require frequent transportation of tools and equipment. They are also useful for DIY enthusiasts and homeowners who need a portable and convenient way to store and transport their tools.

The benefits of a plastic base tool bag tote include:

  • Increased stability: The rigid plastic base helps to keep the bag upright and prevents it from tipping over or collapsing under the weight of heavy tools.
  • Enhanced protection: The plastic base provides an extra layer of protection for the tools inside the bag, helping to prevent damage from impacts or rough handling.
  • Easy to clean: The plastic base is easy to wipe clean and resists dirt and moisture, making it ideal for use in dirty or wet environments.
