Cellulose-Based Paper Batteries

Flint recently announced that its cutting-edge biodegradable paper batteries are transitioning from research and development to the initial manufacturing phase. This innovative energy storage device relies on cellulose as a foundational material.

Flint's paper batteries are biodegradable, free of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), and possess improved safety profiles regarding flammability. The production of this groundbreaking innovation has commenced in a dedicated Singapore facility, and the company is employing water-based manufacturing methods.

Flint's paper batteries may have implications for reducing dependency on conventional metals like lithium and cobalt while delivering a lower carbon footprint. The company claims to have validated this technology through several innovation programs and pilot deployments, in partnership with companies like Logitech, Amazon Devices, and Dassault Systèmes.
