Title: Assembly and Further Optimization of Prototype
Supercapacitor Devices

Objective
The objective is to assemble higher energy density
supercapacitor devices, with reduced resistance, based on
supplied active materials.

Background

This contract is a follow on to a contract in which
supercapacitor prototype devices were assembled, based on novel
materials, and several aspects were optimized. Previous
contract work has focussed on the uniform distribution of the
active materials to the current collector, with efforts to
minimize the contact resistance. Optimization of the separator
and electrolyte, to minimize resistance as well as reduce rate
of self-discharge, is the focus of the next contract.

This work will be applied to larger, multi-cell prototype
configurations of the active materials. The active materials of
interest are metal oxides, conducting polymers, and conducting
polymer - carbon nanotube composites. The metal oxides exhibit
specific capacitance greater than 500 F/g on the lab scale,
while the conducting polymers and conducting polymer - carbon
nanotube composites exhibit specific capacitance approximately
300 F/g on the lab scale.

Requirement

DRDC Atlantic has a requirement for the further optimization and
assembly of multilayer supercapacitor devices based on supplied
active materials. DRDC Atlantic will supply the active
materials (~ 25 g each type) to be used in the devices; the
active materials are powders, thus the contractor must take this
into consideration in the assembly process.
