Overview

Since its commercial introduction in 1959, the Alkaline-Manganese Dioxide battery has advanced to a dominant position in the portable battery market. This came about because the alkaline system is recognized to have several advantages over carbon zinc type batteries. Some of these advantages of alkaline chemistry over the basic carbon zinc chemistry are: higher energy density and longer shelf life.
