Zusatztext "? provides a nice overview of both the fundamentals of electrochemical capacitor technologies and some of the latest and most impactful publications on electrochemical interactions between electrolytes and various electrode materials. ? discusses technologically important but often omitted topics related to the impacts of binders and oxidation stability of current collectors utilized in the construction of supercapacitor electrodes."-Gleb Yushin! Georgia Institute of Technology! Atlanta! USA"? excellent! up-to-date information on electrolytes for electrochemical supercapacitors. A must read for anyone working in this area."-Joey Jung! Board Director! International Academy of Electrochemical Energy Science"? comprehensively summarizes electrolyte aspects in supercapacitor research and development. ? [includes] a good selection of topics covering all aspects that a researcher would wonder. ? The editors are leading scientists in this area."-George Zhao! University of Queensland! Australia"? very useful for graduate students and also for researchers in the field of electrochemical supercapacitors."-Shuhui Sun! INRS-EMT! University of Quebec! Varennes! Canada"The major strength of this book is the topic by itself-electrolyte material-since it is not often detailed in other similar books! which are mainly focused onto the active material part (carbon! oxide! etc.). ? In chapter three! interesting information about the corrosion of aluminum current collectors can be found! which is really important and often neglected or disregarded in our community. The book also contains! in chapter one! an updated view of the latest developments on porous carbons as well as on pseudocapacitive materials! which is useful."-Patrice Simon!
