Maxell ML Series Coin Lithium Manganese Dioxide Rechargeable Battery

Maxell ML Series Coin Lithium Manganese Dioxide Rechargeable Battery is a compact, high-performance energy solution designed for modern compact electronics. Engineered to be small and lightweight, this rechargeable cell offers exceptional reliability for devices requiring a consistent secondary power source.

Description

Maxell ML Series represents the pinnacle of coin-type power storage technology. As a Maxell ML Series Coin Lithium Manganese Dioxide Rechargeable Battery, it employs a sophisticated internal chemistry designed to maximize longevity and performance efficiency. The positive electrode utilizes specially treated manganese dioxide, while the negative electrode is constructed from a robust lithium-aluminum compound.

To ensure superior conductivity and stability, Maxell has integrated a specially formulated organic electrolyte into the cell’s design. This unique combination results in a battery that not only maintains a compact form factor but also exhibits excellent discharge characteristics. Unlike standard rechargeable cells, the ML series is engineered to minimize energy loss, featuring a low self-discharge rate that ensures the battery remains ready for operation even after standby periods. This makes it a critical component for industrial instrumentation and memory backup applications where power failure is not an option.

Maxell

Maxell was formed in 1960, when a dry cell manufacturing plant was created at the company's headquarters in Ibaraki, Osaka. In 1961, Maxell Electric Industrial Company, Limited was created out of the dry battery and magnetic tape divisions of Nitto Electric Industrial Company, Limited (now Nitto Denko Corporation).

On March 18, 2014, the company was listed on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. In 2013, Maxell, Ltd. acquired Hitachi Consumer Electronics, Co., Ltd.’s projector design, development and manufacturing assets and resources. On October 1, 2019, Maxell Corporation of America announced it would assume responsibility for all operations related to both Hitachi- brand and Maxell-brand projector products and accessories in the North American market.
