New Electrolytes for Capacitive Electrochemical Storage

在过去的几年里，人们一直致力于开发适合于电化学储能装置的先进材料，如电化学电容器（ECs）。新的电解质和新的活性材料已经被提出，并且已经证明这些材料显示出良好的性能，这确实可以实现新的存储系统。然而，现在有必要深入了解存储过程，这是当这些新型电解质和材料一起使用时发生的。德国耶拿Friedrich Schiller大学的Balducci教授和法国图卢兹Paul Sabatier大学的Simon教授的研究小组之间的这个合作项目的目的是了解碳质和伪电容性材料在非常规高压电解质中的储存过程/机制，这些电解质适用于实现高能ec。

In the last years tremendous efforts have been dedicated toward the development of advanced materials suitable for electrochemical energy storage devices such as Electrochemical Capacitors (ECs). Novel electrolytes as well as novel active materials have been proposed, and it has been shown that these materials display favourable properties, which could indeed allow the realization of new storage systems. Nevertheless, it is now necessary to deeply understand the storage process, which is taking place when these novel electrolytes and materials are used together. The aim of this collaborative project between the research groups of Prof. Balducci at the Friedrich Schiller University of Jena (Germany) and that of Prof. Simon at the Paul Sabatier University of Toulouse (France) is to understand the storage process/mechanism of carbonaceous and pseudo-capacitive materials in non-conventional, high voltage electrolytes suitable for the realization of high energy ECs.
