Scientists Develop Dissolving Battery
Scientists have developed a self-destructing battery capable of dissolving when exposed to heat or liquid
[www.bbc.com] | August 9, 2016
It could be used to keep military secrets confidential, and in environmental monitoring devices .
Iowa State University mechanical engineering professor Reza Montazami said it was the first practical transient battery.
While this particular battery could not be used in the human body as it contain lithium, researchers have been examining how batteries could dissolve harmlessly within the human body, and prevent the pain of removal, for several years.
