Mg₂Co₄S₁₀ is a ternary metal sulfide compound combining magnesium, cobalt, and sulfur in a layered crystal structure. This material belongs to the family of thiospinels and mixed-metal sulfides, which are of primary research interest for electrochemical energy storage and catalytic applications rather than established commercial use. The compound is notable for its potential as a cathode material in magnesium-ion batteries and as a catalyst for hydrogen evolution reactions, offering both the abundance of magnesium and the electrochemical activity of cobalt sulfide frameworks.
