LeClanche Cell
Leclanche (1839-1882) is a French engineer who in about 1866 invented
the battery that bears his name. In slightly modified form, the Leclanché
battery, now called a dry cell, is produced in great quantities and is
widely used in devices such as flashlights and portable radios. This
cell consists of a zinc case filled with a moist paste containing
ammonium sulfate. In the center of this electrolyte paste is a carbon
rod coated with manganese dioxide, which is a strong oxidizing agent.
