Application Fields of Supercapacitors

Sep. 18, 2021

The development of supercapacitors has achieved good results in various industries. The advantages of supercapacitors such as fast charging speed, long use time, and strong discharge capacity have been well known to everyone. This article will help you understand more about the application fields of supercapacitors.


Supercapacitors are consisted of porous electrode materials with high specific surface area, current collectors, porous battery separators and electrolyte. The electrode material and the current collector should be closely connected to reduce the contact resistance. The diaphragm should meet the conditions of having the highest possible ionic conductivity and the lowest possible electronic conductivity, and is generally a fiber-structured electronic insulating material, such as polypropylene film. The type of electrolyte is selected according to the nature of the electrode material.


Application areas of supercapacitors:

①Large size supercapacitors (125V) can be used in the braking system of trains and subways, and can also provide energy output for material handling engineering vehicles; medium size supercapacitors (75V) can be used for solar energy collecting, because they have the characteristics of working at high temperatures; 48V super capacitors are used in automobiles; small size super capacitors (within 2.7 volts) make a great contribution to the continuous power supply of communication facilities and the storage of backup power for computer memory systems.

② The low impedance of supercapacitors is essential for many high-power applications today. For fast charging and discharging, the small ESR of the supercapacitor means greater power output, charging in a few seconds and discharging in a few minutes. For example, electric tools, electric toys.

③In the UPS system, the super capacitor provides instantaneous power output as a supplement to the backup power supply of the engine or other uninterrupted systems.

④ Power support when the bus switches from one power source to another.

⑤Small current, long-term continuous discharge, such as computer memory backup power supply.

⑥ Instantaneous power pulse application, short-term power support for important storage and memory systems.


In the future, super capacitors will be adopted in more and more different fields. When choosing a super capacitor, it is necessary to understand its performance, parameters and quality, which can help us reduce unnecessary troubles.
