Abstract
The factors influencing the electrochemical behaviour of a supercapacitor have been partly examined in this work The effects of socalled intrinsic parameters ie exchange current density unit cell length and double layer DL capacitance as well as the socalled application parameters ie cell current on the cell potential discharge time have been considered The contributions of each type of capacitors DL capacitor and faradaic supercapacitor under various states of operation and material have been analyzed and the competing compensating effects of the two types of capacitors as regards to the discharge and power characteristics manifested by current–potential and energy–power Ragone plots are elucidated
