Whether it is commonly used in life, air conditioning remote control, TV remote control or children's toys, wireless mouse keyboard, quartz clock electronic watch, radio are inseparable from the battery. When we go to the store to buy batteries, we usually ask whether we want cheaper or more expensive, but few people will ask whether we use alkaline batteries or carbon batteries.
Carbonized Batteries
Carbon batteries are also known as dry cell batteries, as opposed to batteries with a flowable electrolyte. Carbon batteries are suitable for flashlights, semiconductor radios, recorders, electronic clocks, toys, etc. They are mainly used for low-drain electrical appliances, such as clocks, wireless mice, etc. Large-drain electrical appliances should be used with alkaline batteries, such as cameras, and some cameras can't hold up with alkaline, so you need to use nickel-metal hydride. Carbon batteries are the most widely used kind of batteries in our life, and the earliest batteries we have contact with should be this kind of batteries, which have the characteristics of low price and wide range of uses.
Carbon batteries should be the full name of the carbon and zinc batteries (because it is generally the positive electrode is a carbon rod, the negative electrode is zinc skin), also known as zinc manganese batteries, is the most common dry cell batteries, which have a low price and the use of safe and reliable characteristics, based on environmental considerations, due to the cadmium content, so must be recycled, so as to avoid damage to the earth's environment.
The advantages of carbon batteries are obvious, carbon batteries are easy to use, the price is cheap, and there are many types and price points to choose from. The natural disadvantages are also obvious, such as it can not be recycled, although the one-time investment cost is very low, but the cumulative cost of use can be very worthwhile to pay attention to, and such batteries contain mercury and cadmium and other hazardous substances that cause damage to the environment.
Alkaline Batteries
Alkaline batteries in the structure of ordinary batteries in the opposite electrode structure, increasing the relative area between the positive and negative electrodes, and high conductivity of potassium hydroxide solution instead of ammonium chloride, zinc chloride solution, the negative electrode zinc is also changed from flake to granular, increasing the reaction area of the negative electrode, coupled with the use of high-performance manganese electrolytic powder, so that the electrical performance can be greatly improved.
In general, the same type of alkaline batteries is ordinary carbon batteries 3-7 times the amount of electricity, low temperature performance of both the difference is even greater, alkaline batteries are more suitable for high-current continuous discharge and require high operating voltage of the electricity occasions, especially for cameras, flashlights, shavers, electric toys, CD players, high-power remote control, wireless mouse, keyboards, etc. to use.
