U.S. researchers have developed a rechargeable water-based zinc battery that not only has a large capacity, a long life, but is also safer, and is expected to become an ideal replacement for widely used lithium batteries. Today, let's take a look at this new type of battery.
Water-based zinc batteries have features? US researchers pointed out that zinc batteries are a safe and relatively low-cost production of batteries, but low energy density, short life, and therefore not perfect. New water-based zinc batteries overcome the tradition The disadvantages of zinc batteries not only greatly increase the energy density of the battery, but also extend the battery life.
Compared with lithium batteries, water-based zinc batteries not only have a higher energy density, they are much safer, and they do not risk explosion or fire.
Researchers are full of confidence in the commercialization of new water-based zinc batteries. They said that the new batteries will eventually be used not only for consumer electronics but also as a strong competitor for lithium batteries. They can also be used in extreme environments such as space and the deep sea. Space exploration, deep sea exploration and military fields are all in use.
