Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a kind of high specific energy low temperature resistant carbon-niobium-based hybrid capacitor, belong to electrochemical energy storage technical field. BACKGROUND

[0002] Although the existing hybrid capacitor (HSC) technology provides a good balance between power density and energy density, there are still many technical problems, which limit its wide application, as follows:

[0003] Firstly, the capacity matching problem between positive and negative electrode materials has always been the main obstacle to the development of hybrid capacitor technology. Due to the significant differences in performance of different types of electrochemical materials, especially in the process of energy storage, the mismatch of specific capacity and electrical conductivity of positive and negative electrode materials affects the efficiency and stability of the overall energy storage system. Currently, the combination of activated carbon and titanate, transition metal oxide and other materials has improved the performance of hybrid capacitors to some extent, but the mismatch between energy density and power density is still prominent, affecting the overall performance of the energy storage system.

[0004] Secondly, with the increasing demand for large-capacity energy storage systems in the market, the development of hybrid capacitor technology in this field is particularly urgent. However, the improvement of traditional hybrid capacitors in capacity and energy density has reached its limit, especially under the limitation of the capacity difference between positive and negative electrode materials, the further improvement of overall energy density faces great challenges. How to balance power density, capacity matching and material stability in the design of high-capacity and high-energy density capacitors has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0005] In addition, the low-temperature performance problem is also a bottleneck for the development of hybrid capacitor technology. In low-temperature environment, the electrochemical performance of most capacitors decreases significantly, especially the energy attenuation of activated carbon materials at low temperature is particularly significant, which seriously limits the application of hybrid capacitors in low-temperature conditions. Especially in electric vehicles and renewable energy storage systems, low-temperature starting performance and stability are important indicators for evaluating capacitor performance, so it is particularly important to improve the low-temperature performance of hybrid capacitors.

[0006] In summary, the current hybrid capacitor technology still faces many technical problems such as difficulty in matching positive and negative electrode materials, insufficient design of large-capacity capacitors and poor low-temperature performance, which limits its wide application in high-energy density, large-capacity and low-temperature environment.
