Solid-State Polymer Battery

A Solid-State Polymer Battery is a type of energy storage device that uses a solid polymer as the electrolyte, distinguishing it from traditional liquid electrolyte batteries like lithium-ion batteries. In this design, the solid polymer material serves both as a medium for ion transport and as a separator between the anode and cathode, enhancing safety by reducing leakage and flammability risks. Solid-state polymer batteries typically offer higher energy density, longer cycle life, and improved performance in a wider range of temperatures compared to conventional batteries. They are being explored for various applications, including electric vehicles and consumer electronics, due to their potential for higher performance and safety benefits.
