Abstract
A method of making an active electrode material is provided. Activated carbon having between about 70 and 98 percent microporous activated carbon particles of a total amount of activated carbon by weight and between about 2 and 30 percent mesoporous activated carbon particles of the total amount of activated carbon by weight is provided. Binder is provided. The activated carbon and the binder is mixed to form an active electrode material mixture. In some implementations, a method of making an electrode film includes forming a film of active electrode material comprising activated carbon having between about 70 and 98 percent microporous activated carbon particles of a total amount of activated carbon by weight and between about 2 and 30 percent mesoporous activated carbon particles of the total amount of activated carbon by weight. The method further includes bonding the film to a current collector to form an electrode film.
