Duracell
pioneered the Alkaline Manganese Dioxide electrochemical system
nearly 40 years ago. In the 1960-1970 decade, this battery system
rapidly became the popular choice of designers in the ever-widening
field of consumer electronics. Alkaline or Alkaline Manganese
Dioxide cells, have many advantages over zinc-carbon cells including
higher energy output. Other significant advantages are longer
shelf life, better leakage resistance, and superior low temperature
performance.
In comparison to the zinc-carbon cell, the alkaline cell
delivers up to ten times the ampere-hour capacity at high
and continuous drain conditions, with its performance at low
temperatures also being superior to other conventional aqueous
electrolyte primary cells. Its more effective, secure seal
provides excellent resistance to leakage and corrosion. The
product information and test data included in this section
represent Duracell's newest alkaline battery products.
