Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-sodium polyacrylate (PAAS)-KOH-H2O alkaline polymer electrolyte film with high ionic conductivity was prepared by a solution-casting method. Polymer Ni(OH)2/activated carbon (AC) hybrid supercapacitors with different electrode active material mass ratios (positive to negative) were fabricated using this alkaline polymer electrolyte, nickel hydroxide positive electrodes, and AC negative electrodes. Galvanostatic charge/ discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods were used to study the electrochemical per-formance of the capacitors, such as charge/discharge specific capacitance, rate charge/discharge ability, and charge/discharge cyclic stability. Experimental results showed that with the decreasing of active material mass ratio m(Ni(OH)2)/m(AC), the charge/discharge specific capacitance increases, but the rate charge/discharge ability and the charge/discharge cyclic stability decrease.
