Zinc–carbon battery
OverviewHistoryConstructionUsesChemical reactionsZinc-chloride "heavy duty" cellStorageDurability
By 1876, the wet Leclanché cell was made with a compressed block of manganese dioxide. In 1886, Carl Gassner patented a "dry" version by using a casing made of zinc sheet metal as the anode and a paste of plaster of Paris (and later, graphite powder). In 1898, Conrad Hubert used consumer batteries manufactured by W. H. Law…
