Printing a Flexible Magnesium Zinc Battery on PET | Ultra-Thin Energy Storage Solution
Printed batteries offer a thin and lightweight solution for powering electronics. This project is an example of printing a functional seven-layer battery, designed for use in moderately power-demanding electronics, such as security cameras, electric toothbrushes, portable lighting, handheld GPS devices, and toys.
Discover how the Voltera team used NOVA, our materials dispensing system, to print a functional multilayer magnesium zinc battery onto a flexible PET substrate using a variety of conductive and insulating inks.
