“…[ 109 ] A similar surface coating strategy was pursued with β ‐tricalcium phosphate nanorods on a biodegradable Mg alloy (MZZ). [ 108 ] At a current density of 100 µA cm −2 , the battery with β ‐TCP–MZZ alloy showed a plateau voltage of 1.05 V for 1800 h in comparison to only 625 h for the noncoated MZZ alloy (Figure 8b). When the current density was increased to 200 µA cm −2 , the battery sustained a V OC of 1.01 V for only 600 h, probably due to the corrosion of β ‐TCP–MZZ alloy anode during the operation.…”

“…A new biodegradable anode consisting of Mg–Zn (3 wt%)–Zr (0.8 wt%) (MZZ) alloy coated with biocompatible β ‐tricalcium phosphate nanorods ( β ‐TCP) was also developed. [ 108 ] The degradation rate of MZZ and β ‐TCP‐coated MZZ alloy was monitored by measuring the weight loss in both samples after long‐term immersion in SBF at 37 °C. The average corrosion rate of β ‐TCP‐coated MZZ alloy (0.365 µm h −1 ) was found to be slower than that of MZZ alloy (0.62 µm h −1 ), thus confirming the protective nature of the coating.…”

Transient technology seeks the development of materials, devices, or systems that undergo controlled degradation processes after a stable operation period, leaving behind harmless residues. To enable externally powered fully transient devices operating for longer periods compared to passive devices, transient batteries are needed. Albeit transient batteries are initially intended for biomedical applications, they represent an effective solution to circumvent the current contaminant leakage into the environment. Transient technology enables a more efficient recycling as it enhances material retrieval rates, limiting both human and environmental exposures to the hazardous pollutants present in conventional batteries. Little efforts are focused to catalog and understand the degradation characteristics of transient batteries. As the energy field is a property‐driven science, not only electrochemical performance but also their degradation behavior plays a pivotal role in defining the specific end‐use applications. The state‐of‐the‐art transient batteries are critically reviewed with special emphasis on the degradation mechanisms, transiency time, and biocompatibility of the released degradation products. The potential of transient batteries to change the current paradigm that considers batteries as harmful waste is highlighted. Overall, transient batteries are ready for takeoff and hold a promising future to be a frontrunner in the uptake of circular economy concepts.

“…However, its rapid corrosion in aqueous environments presents a serious challenge. To overcome this issue, several strategies such as alloying of Mg with biocompatible metals (Al, Zn, Zr), ,,− surface coating with biomaterials (β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP)), , and design optimization (use of electroplated Mg) have been proposed. Mg and its alloys are coupled with benign cathode materials (e.g., Fe, Mo, W, molybdenum oxide, polypyrrole, Au) to develop fully degradable batteries.…”

Multifunctional Batteries: Flexible, Transient, and Transparent

The primary task of a battery is to store energy and to power electronic devices. This has hardly changed over the years despite all the progress made in improving their electrochemical performance. In comparison to batteries, electronic devices are continuously equipped with new functions, and they also change their physical appearance, becoming flexible, rollable, stretchable, or maybe transparent or even transient or degradable. Mechanical flexibility makes them attractive for wearable electronics or for electronic paper; transparency is desired for transparent screens or smart windows, and degradability or transient properties have the potential to reduce electronic waste. For fully integrated and self-sufficient systems, these devices have to be powered by batteries with similar physical characteristics. To make the currently used rigid and heavy batteries flexible, transparent, and degradable, the whole battery architecture including active materials, current collectors, electrolyte/separator, and packaging has to be redesigned. This requires a fundamental paradigm change in battery research, moving away from exclusively addressing the electrochemical aspects toward an interdisciplinary approach involving chemists, materials scientists, and engineers. This Outlook provides an overview of the different activities in the field of flexible, transient, and transparent batteries with a focus on the challenges that have to be faced toward the development of such multifunctional energy storage devices.
