Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 02/23/2019 --Flexible Batteries Market – Snapshot
A flexible battery comprises a cell stack composed of multiple unit cells and an external casing for sealing the cell stack. Each of the multiple unit cells is composed of a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and an electrolyte layer positioned between the negative electrode and the positive electrode. These micro-components are usually mounted on flexible substrates such as metal foils, polymer films, paper sheets, or rubber surfaces. Such flexible substrates offer the potential to produce battery products that bend and stretch, providing a wider range of battery designs and applications for energy storage devices. The global flexible batteries market is expected to expand at a significant pace during the forecast period, driven by growing awareness and increasing utilization of wearable electronic devices. The global flexible batteries market was valued at around US$ 250.0 Mn in 2017 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of around 30.0% between 2018 and 2026.

IoT devices are likely to require battery attributes such as re-chargeability with high-storage capacity and wireless connection to external power supplies in the near future. Wearable electronic devices powered by an IoT medium are gaining popularity, as they have features such as instant interoperability, profile management, data collection, notifications, and security. Increase in the rate of adoption IoT-enabled wearable electronic devices for monitoring, diagnosing, gauging, navigating, and tracking applications is anticipated to boost the demand for flexible batteries in the next few years.
Flexible batteries sustain large strain deformations including bending, twisting, stretching, and compressing, without any effect on the output of the system. These properties of flexible batteries enable their widespread use in health care and medical applications. Medical and cosmetic patches powered by flexible batteries are employed to monitor and track the user's brain, heart and muscle activities. Simultaneously, these patches diagnose and treat the user's syndromes by delivering and controlling the drug flow to the body. Flexible battery-powered medical implantable devices are used in pacemakers, defibrillators, and neuro-stimulators, owing to long life span and biocompatible nature of flexible batteries. Increasing demand for medical patches and implantable medical devices in health care applications is augmenting the demand for flexible batteries.
