Printable zinc ion batteries for flexible devices (2025-2026)
Abstract
The aim of this project is to advance the development of flexible printed zinc ion batteries, leveraging a novel electrolyte covered by a pending patent. These batteries have the potential to impact multiple industries, including consumer electronics (wearables), medical devices (implantables and biosensors) and Internet of Things (smart labels and tags). Upon completion, the project aims to deliver a scalable, cost-effective alternative to the flexible lithium-ion battery market, positioning the technology as a key enabler for next-generation flexible devices.
