ABSTRACT
In this chapter, carbon materials, including carbon blacks (CAs), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene oxide and graphene, are comprehensively discussed as electrodes of supercapacitors. Processing and characterization of CAs will first discussed, where various technologies and strategies, including physical, chemical and hybrid methods, are presented and compared. Properties, including specific surface area, types of pores, pore size and pore size distribution, which are related to the processing methods, have been evaluated. After that, electrochemical performances of CAs as electrode of supercapacitors are systematically examined.
