Batteries can be classified according to their chemistry or specific electrochemical composition, which heavily dictates the reactions that will occur within the cells to convert chemical to electrical energy. Battery chemistry tells the electrode and electrolyte materials to be used for the battery construction.
Primary batteries come in three major chemistries: (1) zinc–carbon and (2) alkaline zinc–manganese, and (3) lithium (or lithium-metal) battery. Zinc–carbon batteries is among the earliest commercially available primary cells. It is composed of a solid, high-purity zinc anode (99.99%).
Most names have grown historically, each indicative of the research focus in their own time, e.g. lithium-ion batteries, lithium-air batteries, solid-state batteries. Nevertheless, all batteries are essentially made of two electrode layers and an electrolyte layer.
Raw materials are the starting point of the battery manufacturing process and hence the starting point of analytical testing. The main properties of interest include chemical composition, purity and physical properties of the materials such as lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, lead, graphite and various additives.
Nevertheless, all batteries are essentially made of two electrode layers and an electrolyte layer. This lends itself to a systematic and comprehensive approach by which to identify the cell type and chemistry at a glance. The recent increase in hybridized cell concepts potentially opens a world of new battery types.
Battery chemistry tells the electrode and electrolyte materials to be used for the battery construction. It influences the electrochemical performance, energy density, operating life, and applicability of the battery for different applications. Primary batteries are “dry cells”.
