| New core battery technology from Power Technology Power Technology announced that it has received formal written notice from the United States Patent and Trademark Office of the Allowability of a Patent for its core battery technology. The Power Technology invention is a battery comprised of electrical current collectors constructed of reticulated vitreous carbon covered with a thin layer of a lead tin alloy. The current collectors create up to four times higher surface area for electrochemical reactions to take place compared to those in a typical lead acid battery, which results in a battery with higher efficiency and higher capacity meaning more electricity is generated. Joey Jung, Chief Technology Officer of Power Technology, is an inventor and developer of the technology. New core battery technology will serve as an alternative energy resource for many uses, including battery powered bicycles, hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles and solar energy. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
