    This document lists and groups different types of batteries. It separates batteries into two main categories: primary or non-rechargeable batteries that cannot be recharged because their chemical reactions are not reversible; and secondary or rechargeable batteries that can be recharged multiple times as their reactions are reversible. Examples of primary batteries include alkaline, zinc-carbon and lithium batteries. Secondary batteries include lead-acid, lithium-ion, nickel-cadmium and zinc-bromine flow batteries.

    This List of battery types is grouped by types of battery.

    Primary cells or non-rechargeable batteries


    A primary cell is any kind of battery in which the electrochemical reaction is not reversible, rendering the cell unrechargeable. A common example of a primary cell is the disposable battery. Unlike a secondary cell, the reaction cannot be reversed by running a current into the cell; the chemical reactants cannot be restored to their initial position and capacity. Primary batteries use up the materials in one or both of their electrodes. Alkaline battery Aluminium battery Atomic battery Optoelectric nuclear battery Nuclear micro-battery
