Multifunctional Carbon for Electrochemical Double‐Layer Capacitors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Multifunctional carbon materials are prepared for application as an active electrode material in an electrochemical capacitor displaying both charge storage and binder properties. The synthesis of the materials involves the functionalization of high surface area Black Pearls 2000 carbon black by a covalent attachment of polyacrylic acid. The polyacrylic acid polymer is formed by atom transfer radical polymerization using 1‐(bromoethyl)benzene groups initially bonded to the carbon by spontaneous grafting from the corresponding diazonium ions. The grafting of 1‐(bromoethyl)benzene and polyacrylic acid is confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, and nitrogen gas adsorption isotherm. The composite electrode films prepared from the modified carbon are more hydrophilic and have better wettability in an aqueous electrolyte than the one prepared with the unmodified carbon. The modified electrodes also show a higher specific capacitance (≈140 F g −1 ), a wider working potential window (1.5 V) and excellent specific capacitance retention upon cycling (99.9% after 5000 cycles) in an aqueous 0.65 m K 2 SO 4 electrolyte. Moreover, a relatively high specific capacitance (≈90 F g −1 ) is maintained at a scan rate of 1000 mV s −1 with the polyacrylic‐acid‐modified carbon electrode.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
