Thin, leak-resistant polymer lithium ion battery suits notebook computers

Article Abstract:

Hitachi Maxell Ltd is launching the thinnest, largest-capacity polymer lithium ion batteries called the PLS3089116 which is intended specifically for notebook computers. Its main advantage over conventional lithium ion batteries is its use of gel polymer for the electrolyte which contributes to its leak resistance capability. Another major advantage is its very thin configuration which is attributable to a structure that bonds the separator section and the electrodes with the gel.
