This paper reports on the long-term performance of electrochemical capacitor operating in 1 mol⋅L−1 KI solution subjected to two ageing protocols, i.e., galvanostatic cycling and potentiostatic floating. Ageing tests have been performed at similar voltage conditions (1.5 V), estimated from coulombic energetic efficiency as well self-discharge analysis. The end-of-life criterion (80% initial capacitance retained) was same for both procedures. influence methodology structural textural changes...

This paper reports the successful attempts of symmetric aqueous electrochemical capacitor (EC) lifespan extension. A novel exploitation procedure, i.e., alternate floating, is herein proposed. Since only positive electrode ages remarkably in EC systems with LiNO3 as electrolyte, it demonstrated that polarization allows properties negative to be fully exploited. In our approach both electrodes play role and one alternately; carbon were subjected standard voltage-holding polarization. To...

Electrochemical capacitors (ECs) are high-power energy storage devices able to operate for thousands of cycles. Nevertheless, their calendar and cycle life is limited, especially when high voltage applied. On the other hand, that parameter (voltage, U) significantly increases values according equation E=0.5CU 2 . Therefore, there a particular need understanding ageing performance fade reasons in order prolong supercapacitor operation. Herein, effect ageing-related phenomena water-based ECs...
