Supercapacitors are a relatively new energy storage system that provides higher energy density than dielectric capacitors and higher power density than batteries. They are particularly suited to applications that require energy pulses during short periods of time, e.g., seconds or tens of seconds. They are recommended for automobiles, tramways, buses, cranes, fork-lifts, wind turbines, electricity load leveling in stationary and transportation systems, etc. Despite the technological maturity of supercapacitors, there is a lack of comprehensive literature on the topic. Many high performance materials have been developed and new scientific concepts have been introduced. Taking into account the commercial interest in these systems and the new scientific and technological developments now is the ideal time to publish this book, capturing all this new knowledge. The book starts by giving an introduction to the general principles of electrochemistry, the properties of electrochemical capacitors, and electrochemical characterization techniques. Electrical double layer capacitors and pseudocapacitors are then discussed, followed by the various electrolyte systems. Modelling, manufacture of industrial capacitors, constraints, testing, and reliability as well as applications are also covered. 'Supercapacitors - Materials, Systems, and Applications' is part of the series on Materials for
Sustainable Energy and Development edited by Prof. G.Q. Max Lu. The series covers advances in materials science and innovation for renewable energy, clean use of fossil energy, and greenhouse gas mitigation and associated environmental technologies.

Series Editor Preface
Sustainable energy and development is attracting increasing attention from the scientific research communities and industries alike, with an international race to develop technologies for clean fossil energy, hydrogen and renewable energy as well as water reuse and recycling. According to the REN21 (Renewables Global Status Report 2012 p. 17) total investment in renewable energy reached $257 billion in 2011, up from $211 billion in 2010. The top countries for investment in 2011 were China, Germany, the United States, Italy, and Brazil. In addressing the challenging issues of energy security, oil price rise, and climate change, innovative materials are essential enablers.
In this context, there is a need for an authoritative source of information, presented in a systematic manner, on the latest scientific breakthroughs and knowledge advancement in materials science and engineering as they pertain to energy and the environment. The aim of the Wiley Series on New Materials for Sustainable Energy and Development is to serve the community in this respect. This has been an ambitious publication project on materials science for energy applications. Each volume of the series will include high-quality contributions from top international researchers, and is expected to become the standard reference for many years to come.
This book series covers advances in materials science and innovation for renewable energy, clean use of fossil energy, and greenhouse gas mitigation and associated environmental technologies. Current volumes in the series are:

Preface
Currently, our planet faces huge challenges related to energy. How to reduce CO2 emissions and fossil fuel consumption? How to introduce renewable energies in the energy mix? Of course these are not new questions, but simply, until the end of the last century, no one cared about the scarcity of fossil fuels even if some warnings appeared during the successive oil crises.
The answer to the above questions is energy saving as well as energy management. It is exactly the role that can be played by electrochemical capacitors, so-called supercapacitors, because of their ability to store larger amounts of energy than the traditional dielectric capacitors. Such exceptional properties originate from the nanometric scale capacitors built from the polarized electrode material and a layer of attracted ions on its surface. The thickness of the electrode–electrolyte interface is directly controlled by the size of ions. Supercapacitors are able to harvest energy in very short periods (less than one minute) and to subsequently provide burst of energy when needed. They are now a reality in the market, where they are applied in automotive and stationary systems, and allow energy savings ranging from 10 to 40%. They can also play a role in the stabilization of current when intermittent renewable energies are introduced in the energetic mix.
Although supercapacitors are now commercially available, they still require improvements, especially for enhancing their energy density. It requires a fundamental understanding of their properties and exact operating principles, in addition to improving electrode materials, electrolytes past and integration in systems. All these topics led to a very strong motivation of academics and industry during the decade.
When Max Lu invited us to suggest a book in his series Materials for Sustainable Energy and Development, we immediately thought about Supercapacitors. Indeed, since the fantastic pioneer book Electrochemical supercapacitors: Scientific Fundamentals and Technological Applications published by B.E. Conway in 1999, no other comprehensive book was dealing extensively with the topic of supercapacitors, and until now the book is generally referred in almost all scientific publications concerning this subject. During the past 10 years new ideas appeared, such as a better description of what is really the double-layer in these systems and hybrid and asymmetric capacitors, requiring a comprehensive review.
Our book entitled Supercapacitors: materials and systems does not intend to substitute but be a complement to the Conway's book taking advantage of the developments which appeared in the past decade. It is dedicated to researchers and engineers involved with supercapacitor science, its developments, and implementation. The book is also intended for graduate and undergraduate students wanting to special in energy storage systems.
For these reasons, it has been written in collaboration with scientists world-wide renowned in supercapacitors science and also with contributors from the industry. The book includes 14 chapters: 3 being dedicated to general principles of electrochemistry, electrochemical characterization techniques and general properties of supercapacitors in order to allow reading the book without any prerequisite knowledge; 3 to fundamentals, general properties, and modelling of electrical double-layer capacitors, and pseudo-capacitors; 3 to new trends such as asymmetric and hybrid capacitors, and the use of ionic liquid electrolytes; 2 to manufacturing and modules sizing; 3 to testing, reliability, and applications of supercapacitors. Each chapter aims at giving the most detailed information using familiar terms.
We are very happy and proud that we could gather, in this book, the greatest names in supercapacitors science and technology. All are colleagues and friends who we met in international conferences or with whom we have had the pleasure to collaborate. They all kindly accepted to devote their time for contributing chapters; we sincerely and warmly thank them for their help. We also would like to thank our friend Max Lu for giving us this wonderful opportunity and also the Wiley staff for being patient. Finally, we would like to dedicate this book to our solve parents who would be very proud to see our small contribution in helping solve humanity problems.

General Principles of Electrochemistry
Scott W. Donne
Chemical reactions move toward a dynamic equilibrium in which both reactants and products are present but have no further tendency to undergo net change. In some cases, the concentration of products in the equilibrium mixture is so much greater than the concentration of the unchanged reactants that for all practical purposes the reaction is complete. However, in many important cases, the equilibrium mixture has significant concentrations of both reactants and products.
The equilibrium composition of a reaction mixture can be calculated from the Gibbs energy by identifying the composition that corresponds to a minimum in the Gibbs energy. To elaborate further, consider the simple chemical equilibrium:
1.1
The reaction Gibbs energy (ΔGr) is defined as
1.2
where μ represents the chemical potential or molar Gibbs energy for each species.
Because the chemical potentials vary with composition, the Gibbs energy will change as the reaction proceeds. Moreover, because the reaction runs in the direction of decreasing G, it means that the reaction A → B is spontaneous when μA > μB, whereas the reverse reaction is spontaneous when μB > μA. When the derivative in Eq. (1.2) is zero, the reaction is spontaneous in neither direction, and so
1.3
To generalize these concepts, consider the more generic chemical reaction:
1.4
When the reaction advances by dξ, the amounts of reactants and products change by
1.5
1.6
The general form of this expression is
1.7
It follows that
1.8
To progress further, we note that the chemical potential of a species J is related to its activity (aJ) by
1.9
Substituting an equivalent expression to Eq. (1.9) for each species into Eq. (1.8) gives rise to
1.10
1.11
where K is the thermodynamic equilibrium constant. Furthermore, from Eq. (1.10)
1.12
which is a very important thermodynamic relationship, for it enables us to predict the equilibrium constant of any reaction from tables of thermodynamic data, and hence to predict the equilibrium composition of the reaction mixture.
A cell in which the overall cell reaction has not reached chemical equilibrium can do electrical work as the reaction drives electrons through an external circuit. The work that a given transfer of electrons can accomplish depends on the potential difference between the two electrodes. This potential difference is called the cell potential (V). When the cell potential is large, a given number of electrons traveling between the electrodes can do a large amount of electrical work. When the cell potential is small, the same number of electrons can do only a small amount of work. A cell in which the overall reaction is at equilibrium can do no work, and then the cell potential is zero.
