Electrode for electric double layer capacitor and method of fabrication thereof

摘要

A novel electrode and method of making the same. The electrode may be used in electric double layer capacitors. The electrodes include activated carbon that has been mixed with a thermosetting polymer binder. Activated carbon cloth may also be used. The method of modifying the activated carbon helps produce an electrode with considerably higher electric capacity, higher durability, and low resistance, while maintaining high conductivity. Additionally, the electrodes may be produced more quickly and inexpensively.
