Jelly-Like Electrolytes for Flexible Lithium Batteries

UC Berkeley researchers have developed a jelly-like lithium-ion battery designed for soft robotics and wearable electronics. Using a hydrogel electrolyte and a zwitterionic polymer, the battery is flexible, self-healing, and can withstand cuts and bends—all while maintaining decent energy density. Though its cycle life is currently limited, the innovation marks a significant step toward safer, more adaptable power solutions for flexible tech.
