Electrochemical Corrosion and Safety Hazards in Sustainable Batteries: Corrosion Mechanisms, Safety Challenges, and Protection.
Review in Nano-micro letters, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The swift transition to sustainable energy has heightened demand for high-performance, safe, and environmentally responsible battery technologies. Zn₋, Mg₋, Na₋, Al₋, Fe₋, organic, and bio-based systems offer several advantages over traditional resource-intensive and toxic alternatives. However, their practical implications are significantly challenged by their susceptibility to electrochemical corrosion, which adversely affects their efficiency, longevity, safety, recyclability, and reversibility. Corrosion is one of the most significant and persistent barriers to the development of next-generation energy storage systems. This review comprehensively presents unified mechanisms of corrosion across diverse sustainable battery systems, with a detailed account of pitting, uniform, galvanic, intergranular, and passivation-related degradation pathways. The article presents a unique comparison of the degradation mechanisms of Zn, Al, Mg, and other anodes in different electrolytes. Corrosion mitigation strategies, including surface passivation, surface engineering, alloying, use of surfactants and polymer-based films, ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, metal-organic frameworks, heterocycles, and bio-based multifunctional corrosion inhibitors, have been comprehensively surveyed. These inhibitors suppress the increase in cycle life, achieving inhibition efficiencies of over 90%. Lastly, the review highlights the design of molecular-level corrosion inhibitors, interfacial engineering, real-time corrosion testing, advanced electrolytes, and forward-looking directions, all of which are essential to the development of sustainable, stable energy storage systems.
