Improvement of the structural and chemical properties of a commercial activated carbon for its application in electrochemical capacitors

The present paper shows that the performance of an inexpensive activated carbon used in electrochemical capacitors can be significantly enhanced by a simple treatment with KOH at 850 °C. The changes in the specific surface area, as well as in the surface chemistry, lead to high capacitance values, w...
