Lithium polymer batteries offer many advantages. Lithium polymer has a greater energy density in terms of weight than lithium ion. Lithium polymer batteries employ the laminated aluminium foil as battery case, which is lighter, thinner, more flexible and safer. Generally, there is more fl exibility in cell sizes and shape with lithium polymer. Many smart phones, GPS devices and […]
