Zn – MnO2 Active Materials

Typical Battery Active Materials Electrolytic MnO2 (EMD, -MnO2) is reversibly converted to MnOOH during its initial stage of discharge. By cycling in a well-controlled range of cell potential and depth-of-discharge, cycle life of greater than 3,000 is achieved. By controlling zinc material migration, shape-change and zinc dendrites are avoided.
