Zinc Electrodes for Printed Thin-Layer Batteries

6 Zinc Electrodes for Printed Thin-Layer Batteries [Pg.233]

The key technologies, for example, the production of proprietary printing inks, particular binder/solvent systems containing the active components in the form of very fine powders (e.g., zinc for anodes with an average particle diameter of 30 xm) are patented. Power Paper, as an example, is holding by more than 60 patents covering the applied materials and details of the production process. [Pg.233]

Nevertheless, from time to time additional zinc electrode formulations for either zinc/nickel batteries [198] or for the zinc/manganese system [199] are presented. [Pg.233]

Up to 2003, a joint project of Power Paper and the Institute for Chemical Technology of Inorganic Materials, Graz University of Technology, explored a rechargeable version of printed thin and flexible zinc/manganese dioxide batteries based on experience with RAM cells (see Section 8.3.7-4) [200].
