Zinc Carbon Batteries

Eveready Industries India Ltd offers Zinc Carbon Batteries. Zinc carbon batteries were the first commercial dry cell batteries. The ability of zinc carbon batteries to function in any orientation helped in the development of various portable devices like flashlights and radios. These batteries have a long shelf-life which allows them to retain a charge for lengthy durations even when left unused. Catering to a wide range of needs, Eveready's zinc carbon batteries come in a range of sizes from 'AAA' to 'D'. Zinc carbon is a generic term for primary dry batteries of the LeClanche or zinc chloride system. These batteries have an anode of zinc, a cathode of manganese dioxide, and a slightly acidic electrolyte. Zinc carbon batteries work due to an electrochemical reaction within the cell.
