Energy Storage Technologies Based on Electrochemical Double Layer Capacitors: A Review

Theoretical and Experimental Chemistry volume 57, pages 311–324 (2021)Cite this article

Modern design approaches to electric energy storage devices based on nanostructured electrode materials, in particular, electrochemical double layer capacitors (supercapacitors) and their hybrids with Li-ion batteries, are considered. It is shown that hybridization of both positive and negative electrodes and also an electrolyte increases energy density of an electrochemical system, thus, filling the gap between supercapacitors and batteries in terms of specific energy and power, as well as charge rate and the number of charge-discharge cycles.

Notes

  1. Tetrafluoroborate tetraethylammonium is also often used. The electrical conductivity of such electrolytes in acetonitrile reaches 55-60 mS/cm at room temperature.

  2. The results of our tests, as well as tests performed at the JME Laboratory, Cleveland, USA.
