17 Claims

1. A gel electrolyte split cell supercapacitor, comprising:

two nanocomposite electrodes, each nanocomposite electrode comprising:

a substrate;

at least one binding compound;

at least one conductive additive; and

at least one molybdenum doped carbon material;

wherein a mixture of 5-10 wt % of the at least one binding compound, 65-92 wt % of the at least one conductive additive, and 3-25 wt % of the at least one molybdenum doped carbon material based on the total weight of the at least one binding compound, the at least one conductive additive, and the at least one molybdenum doped carbon material, at least partially coats a surface of the substrate;

wherein the nanocomposite electrodes face one another, wherein the substrate of each nanocomposite electrode is at least partially coated with the mixture on an inside facing surface and the outer surfaces of each of the nanocomposite electrodes are not coated with the mixture; and

wherein the inside facing surfaces are separated by at least one gel electrolyte that at least partially penetrates the molybdenum doped carbon material,

wherein the gel electrolyte comprises at least one polyol compound mixed with at least one selected from the group consisting of an alkali metal salt and an alkaline earth salt.
