This paper reports that addition of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) in MgCo2O4 improves the binding of Mg with Co thereby minimizing magnesium dissolution in aqueous alkaline electrolytes and the resulting MgCo2O4/rGO electrodes offered impressive improvements in charge storage properties. An isostruct...
