Polymer Materials Point Way to Thin, Safe Rechargeable Batteries

Article Abstract:

Polymer batteries offers a viable alternative for conventionally designed rechargeable batteries that are not only thinner but safer. Polymer batteries, which can either be a polymer cathode battery or a solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) battery, can be designed to as thin as 0.5 mm. The absence of free liquids in polymer batteries, especially in SPEs, makes them electrolyte-leak proof and allows the creation of bipolar batteries for higher voltage output.
