A novel potassium ion intercalating carbon aqueous solution ultra capacitor for very high wattage pulse output

摘要

Attempts have been made to develop a new novel potassium ion intercalating carbon/aqueous potassium carbonate/carbon ultra capacitor and capacitor banks. Cyclic voltammetric studies have been carried out to select suitable electrode materials for capacitors and better capacitor electrolytes. Charge-discharge studies on fabricated capacitors and capacitor banks have been reported. Impedance spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction studies also have been carried out to understand the mechanism involved in the capacitors.
