This invention discloses an
electrolyte suitable for electric double-layer capacitors, its preparation method, and its application, belonging to the field of
electrochemical energy storage technology. The
electrolyte comprises an
organic solvent, an
electrolyte salt, and additives, wherein the additives are fluorinated
acrylate additives. The electrolyte of this invention, applied to 2.5~2.8V electric double-layer capacitors, can suppress
hydrolysis gas generation and
electrode micropore blockage induced by
trace amounts of
moisture under high-temperature float charging through the synergistic effects of
ion solvation sheath reconstruction, interface property regulation, and steric hindrance
polymerization. This results in a reduction of more than half in
cell volume expansion, a reduction of more than 27.9% in
internal resistance increase, an improvement of capacity retention of more than 6.4%, and a reduction of more than 59.7% in electrolyte
free acid content after 8 weeks of float charging at 65℃ and 2.9V. Furthermore, only
trace amounts are needed to significantly extend the high-temperature service life of the
cell without sacrificing the initial
conductivity and capacity of the electrolyte, greatly improving the high-temperature
degradation problem of existing AN-based electric double-layer capacitors.
