Abstract

In this chapter, we delve into carbon corrosion in supercapacitors, a critical challenge impacting their durability and efficiency. Highlighting the degradation of carbon electrodes at high voltages, especially at the positive-electrode side, we explore the factors contributing to this corrosion, including electrolyte interactions and operational conditions. The chapter outlines innovative mitigation strategies, focusing on advanced carbon materials and electrolyte modifications. This comprehensive analysis aims to enhance the understanding of carbon corrosion mechanisms, contributing significantly to the development of more resilient and efficient supercapacitors for sustainable energy technologies.
