Abstract

Various carbon aerogels (CAs) were prepared from polymerization of resorcinol and formaldehyde and applied as the electrode materials of an electric double layer capacitor (EDLC) with the aim of controlling the textural and electrochemical properties of CAs by the type of base catalyst and the ratio of resorcinol to catalyst (R/C). The CAs from $NaHCO_3$ and $KHCO_3$ with $H^+$ ions had higher specific surface areas but exhibited lower electrochemical properties than those from $K_2CO_3$ and $Na_2CO_3$, which had more uniform pore size distributions. The electrochemical properties of $Na_2CO_3$ were superior to those of $K_2CO_3$ probably because the polarizing power of $Na^+$ ions was higher than $K^+$ ions. With an increasing R/C ratio, the pore sizes of CA showed a tendency to increase but the uniformity of the pore size distribution got worse. For the four base catalysts, the highest electrochemical property was obtained at the R/C ratio of 500.
