Abstract

The energy storage mechanisms of electrochemical double-layer capacitor (EDLC) and C/Ni(OH)2 hybrid capacitor had been studied. The results proved that,the difference between the capacity of EDLC and C/Ni(OH)2 hybrid capacitor was detemined by the effectiveness usage of the activated carbon negative electrode, which is a criterion to estimate or design the theoretic capacity of the C/Ni(OH)2 hybrid capacitor. The electrochemical availability of activated matter in Ni(OH)2 electrode was introduced, and the quantity of the activated matter in Ni(OH)2 electrode should be compatible with the capacity of carbon electrode. When the capacities of Ni(OH)2 electrode and activated carbon electrode were matched well, the capacity and high rate performance of the hybrid capacitor would be improved.
