Flexible batteries refer to a type of battery technology that is designed to be versatile and adaptable in terms of form factor and application. These batteries are characterized by their ability to bend, twist, or conform to different shapes without compromising their functionality. This flexibility makes them suitable for use in various devices and scenarios where traditional rigid batteries may be impractical. The main types of flexible batteries are thin-film batteries and printed batteries. Thin-film batteries are low-profile, flexible, and often disposable batteries with a small footprint making them ideal for flat electronic applications, wearable devices, and medical biosensors. They are available in below 1.5v, between 1.5v and 3v, above 3v voltages with below 10 mah, between 10 mah and 100 mah, above 100 mah capacities as primary batteries and secondary batteries for consumer electronics, smart packaging, smart cards, medical devices, wireless sensors, and others.
