The specific surface area is a key characteristic of carbon materials used in supercapacitor electrodes. In this paper, the use of a methylene blue technique for specific surface area determination is presented. Values for the specific surface area, determined by a new method, provide better correlation with theoretical values for the specific electrical capacity of highlyporous carbon electrodes than the values measured by the common BET method. Additionally, the methylene blue adsorption method is thought to characterize carbon adsorption activity in relation to a supercapacitor electrolyte.

Keywords: Supercapacitors, specific surface area, methylene blue, aqueous electrolyte.

  1. There are definitely quite a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to deliver up. I supply the thoughts above as basic inspiration however clearly there are questions like the one you deliver up the place a very powerful thing will probably be working in sincere good faith. I don?t know if finest practices have emerged around issues like that, however I am certain that your job is clearly identified as a good game. Both girls and boys feel the affect of only a moment’s pleasure, for the remainder of their lives.
