Surface-related capacitance of microporous carbons in aqueous and organic electrolytes

This paper examines the surface-related capacitance C/S of carbons with average micropore widths between 0.73 and 1.80 nm, using 1–2 M H2SO4, 6 M KOH and 1 M (C2H5)4NBF4 in acetonitrile as electrolytes. Following corrections for pseudocapacitance effects for the aqueous electrolytes and the use of a...
