Capacitors are commonly used electronic devices for storing charges and have been widely applied in many electronic devices. Due to the rapid development of industry technology in the new era, early circuit structures are gradually being replaced by more complex circuit forms, and ordinary capacitors can no longer meet the needs of circuit operation. In order to meet the needs of high load or overload circuit operation, supercapacitors have been promoted in China, which have superior performance compared to traditional capacitors.
Supercapacitors, also known as electrochemical capacitors, double-layer capacitors, gold capacitors, and Farad capacitors, are electrochemical components developed in the 1970s and 1980s for energy storage through polarized electrolytes. It is different from traditional chemical power sources and is a power source with special properties that lies between traditional capacitors and batteries. It mainly relies on double layers and redox pseudocapacitive charges to store electrical energy. But there is no chemical reaction in its energy storage process, which is reversible, and precisely because of this supercapacitor, it can be repeatedly charged and discharged hundreds of thousands of times.

Characteristics of Supercapacitors
(1) Fast charging speed, charging for 10 seconds to 10 minutes can reach over 95% of its rated capacity;
(2) Long cycle life, with deep charge and discharge cycles up to 10000 to 500000 times, and no "memory effect";
(3) High current discharge capability, high energy conversion efficiency, minimal process loss, and high current energy cycling efficiency ≥ 90%;
(4) High power density, up to 300W/KG~5000W/KG, equivalent to 5-10 times that of a battery;
(5) The raw material composition, production, use, storage, and disassembly process of the product are all pollution-free, making it an ideal green and environmentally friendly power source;
(6) The charging and discharging circuit is simple, without the need for charging circuits like rechargeable batteries, with a high safety factor and maintenance free long-term use;
(7) Excellent ultra-low temperature characteristics, with a wide temperature range of -40 ℃ to+70 ℃;
(8) Easy detection, remaining battery can be directly read out;
(9) The capacity range is usually 0.1F to 1000F.
Characteristics of Supercapacitors _ Advantages and Disadvantages of Supercapacitors
Advantages and disadvantages of supercapacitors
Supercapacitors are not superior in every aspect during use, which requires proficiency in understanding the advantages and disadvantages of the device when using supercapacitors. Due to limitations in manufacturing technology, there are still deficiencies in the installation and debugging of supercapacitors in China. Many devices have experienced circuit failures due to the blind use of supercapacitors, which has affected the overall performance of the equipment. As a new product of capacitors, the advantages presented by supercapacitors are significantly greater than their disadvantages.
(1) Advantages
Supercapacitors are an upgrade of ordinary capacitor devices, which have implemented multiple improvements on early capacitors.
1. Capacitance
The conventional capacitors used in the early days had a small storage capacity and could only meet the circuit requirements of small loads; And the capacitance level of supercapacitors can reach Farad level, which can be suitable for more complex circuit operation needs.
2. Circuit
Supercapacitors have lower requirements for circuit structure, do not require special charging circuits or control discharge circuits, and their usage time will not be affected by overcharging or overdischarging.
3. Welding
Ordinary capacitors cannot be welded. When installing supercapacitors, welding treatment can be carried out as needed to prevent poor battery contact and improve the performance of capacitor components.
4. Environmental Protection
It is a green energy source with lower environmental pollution compared to other conventional capacitors.
(2) Disadvantages
Through performance testing of supercapacitors, it was found that this new type of capacitor also has drawbacks. For example:
1. Leakage
The improper installation position of supercapacitors can easily cause electrolyte leakage and other problems, which can damage the structural performance of capacitors.
2. Circuit
Supercapacitors are limited to the use of DC circuits, as they have a higher internal resistance compared to aluminum electrolytic capacitors and are not suitable for the operational requirements of AC circuits.
3. Efficiency
The energy density is not high, and the efficiency of long-term discharge is not as good as that of batteries.
4. Price
Due to the fact that supercapacitors are a new generation of high-tech products, their prices were relatively high when they were first introduced to the market, which increased the cost investment for equipment operation.

Summary:
For a long time, conventional capacitors have been used in China, which are electronic components used to store charges and electrical energy after two adjacent and insulated conductors form electrodes. Supercapacitors, also known as double-layer capacitors, are currently a new device for storing electrical energy. From a physical perspective, supercapacitors have the characteristics of short charging time, long operating time, good temperature control effect, and strong environmental performance.
Nowadays, supercapacitors are widely used in fields such as high current, data backup, and hybrid vehicles. But for portable appliances that require high energy density, supercapacitors are still plagued by the problem of low energy density. No one wants to carry a power bank that can never be thrown away on the street, and supercapacitors have such a problem. Maybe you can't use a supercapacitor phone now, but who can say for sure in the future!
