Abstract

Electrochemical capacitors (ECs) play a crucial role in electrical energy storage, offering great potential for efficient energy storage and power management. However, they face challenges such as moderate energy densities and rapid self-discharge. Addressing self-discharge necessitates a fundamental understanding of the underlying processes. This review sets itself apart from other reviews by focusing on the basic principles of self-discharge processes in carbon-based ECs, particularly examining the nature of the process and the involvement of redox reactions. This study delineates the potential conditions for various self-discharge processes and proposes plausible criteria for differentiation, complemented by mathematical modeling. Additionally, the model selection, curve fitting, and effective tuning methods are explored to control self-discharge processes.
