Nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms and transmission electron microscope images revealed that the porous carbons exhibit hierarchical porous structures with meso/macropores and micropores. Electric double layer capacitor performance of the porous carbons was investigated in an organic electrolyte of 1 M LiClO4 in propylene carbonate and dimethoxy ethane. The hierarchical porous carbons exhibited large specific double layer capacitance of ca. 120 F g-1 due to their large surface areas. In addition, the large capacitance was still obtained at a large current density up to 10 A g-1, which satisfies demands from the high power application such as hybrid electric vehicles. Capacitance analysis of the hierarchical porous structures revealed the contribution of meso/macropores and micropore to the electric double layer capacitance to be 8.4 and 8.1 μF cm-2, respectively. The results indicated electric double layer is formed even when solvated ions are larger than pore diameters., Journal of Power Sources, 175(1), pp.651-656; 2008}, pages = {651--656}, title = {Electric double layer capacitance on hierarchical porous carbons in an organic electrolyte}, volume = {175}, year = {2008} }
