| Abstract: |
PolyPlus Battery Company has identified that by transitioning its PLE based Li-Seawater Battery Technology to a more optimal circular geometry, battery length in a Type A sonobuoy can be decreased by as much as 50% compared to a square form factor, and by this expedient provides sonobuoy battery component flexibility and the potential for enhanced power and overall sonobuoy performance. |
| Benefits: |
An enhanced battery component for use in Type A sonobuoy apparatus. The use of a circular format PLE provides value add to a number of technology applications, including consumer electronic devices and electric vehicles. |
