Abstract

This work describes the effect of binders, such as carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), CMC+ Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and PTFE, on the electrochemical and mechanical properties of activated carbon-electrode for electric double layer capacitor. The cell capacitors using the electrode bound with binary binder composed of CMC and PTFE, especially in composition CMC PTFE = 60 : 40 wt.%, has better rate capability and the lower internal resistance than those of the cell capacitor with CMC. On the other hand, the sheet type electrode kneaded with PTFE was bonded with conductive adhesive on Al foil. This cell capacitor using the electrode with PTFE exhibited the best mechanical properties and rate capability compared to the CMC and CMC+PTFE one. These behaviors could be explained by the well-developed network structure of PTFE fibrils doting the kneading process.
