Abstract

An activated carbon composite electrode for nonaqueous electric double-layer capacitors was prepared with alginate. A model cell with this electrode showed an ultrahigh rate capability, presumably because of the high affinity of alginate for activated carbon, which decreased the internal resistance of the composite electrode.
