This study evaluated porous carbon materials prepared with different activation methods as positive electrodes for zinc-ion capacitors. The chemically activated carbons showed higher capacities compared to steam-activated carbons, with the KOH-activated carbon exhibiting the highest capacity. Additionally, the dependence of charge-discharge characteristics on different electrolyte types was explored, revealing gas evolution in alkaline electrolytes and higher discharge capacity in chlorine-ion-containing electrolytes.
Porous carbon materials prepared with different activation methods were evaluated as positive electrodes for zinc-ion capacitors. Higher capacities were obtained with chemically activated carbons than with steam-activated carbons, with KOH-activated carbon showing the highest capacity. Furthermore, the dependence of charge-discharge characteristics on electrolyte was explored using seven different electrolyte types. Gas evolution was observed during the charging reaction in alkaline electrolytes such as potassium hydroxide and tetraethylammonium hydroxide, but no gas generation was observed in acidic electrolytes. In addition, the discharge capacity tended to be higher for chlorine- ion-containing electrolytes such as zinc chloride and ammonium chloride.
