Hybrid capacitor composed of two electrodes immersed in an electrolytic solution with a separator located between the electrodes. Electrode materials store charge while electrolyte provides conductive medium for them. In hybrid capacitor, material for both electrodes are different from each other i.e. electrodes are asymmetric in nature. Due to asymmetric nature, hybrid capacitor results in higher value of energy density and specific capacitance. The value of capacitance, energy density and internal resistance are affected by the proportion of metal oxide. Metal oxides like manganese dioxide, stannic oxide, ruthenium dioxide and vanadium pentaoxide in combination with activated carbon is used in this research work for the development of hybrid capacitor. Selected metal oxide in combination with activated carbon is then varied in various proportions and its impacts are studied accordingly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
