摘要
Polarizable electrode of electric double layer capacitor was made from carbon nanotubes. The effect of acid oxidation of electrode on the specific capacitance was studied. Oxidation removed the redundant carbon, expanded the pore size and introduced some kinds of functional groups on the surface of CNTs. The specific capacitance of the electrodes with organic electrolyte was increased from 21.4 to 49.6 F/g after being oxidized at a volume ratio of H2SO4 to HNO3 of 3:1.
