ELECTROCHEMICAL DOUBLE-LAYER CAPACITOR USING ORGANOSILICON ELECTROLYTES

摘要

Disclosed are supercapacitors having organosilicon electrolytes, high surface
area/porous electrodes, and optionally organosilicon separators. Electrodes
are formed from high surface area material (such as porous carbon nanotubes or
carbon nanof ibers) , which has been impregnated with the electrolyte. These
type devices appear particularly suitable for use in electric and hybrid
electric vehicles .
