Let's take a look at the differences between polymer batteries and lithium-ion batteries?solar powered electric generator

　　1. The raw materials for lithium-ion batteries are different, and the raw materials are electrolyte (liquid or colloid); The raw materials for polymer lithium batteries are electrolytes, including polymer electrolytes (solid or colloidal) and organic electrolytes.

　　2. In terms of safety, lithium-ion batteries simply explode in high-temperature and high-pressure environments; Polymer lithium batteries use aluminum plastic film as the outer shell, and when organic electrolytes are used internally, even if the liquid is very hot, it will not burst.

　　3. Polymer batteries can achieve thinness, arbitrary surface area, and arbitrary shape due to the fact that their electrolytes can be solid or colloidal rather than liquid, while lithium batteries use electrolytes and require a sturdy outer shell as a secondary packaging to contain the electrolyte.

　　4. The voltage of the battery cells is different because polymer batteries use polymer materials, which can be made into multi-layer combinations within the cells to achieve high voltage, while lithium battery cells have a nominal capacity of 3.6V. To achieve high voltage in practical applications, multiple cells need to be connected in series to form a negative high voltage operation platform.

　　5. The production process is different, and the thinner the polymer battery, the better it can be produced. The thicker the lithium battery, the better it can be produced. This allows lithium batteries to expand their applications in more fields.

　　6. The capacity of polymer batteries has not been significantly improved, and there is still a reduction compared to lithium batteries with standard capacity.
