<p>The double layer capacitance properties of activated carbon fibers (ACFs) in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMImBF4) were discussed in comparison with propylene carbonate solution of 0.5 M (C2H5)4NBF4 (TEABF4/PC) as typical organic electrolyte for electric double layer capacitor (EDLC). In the case of using TEABF4/PC, the ACF electrodes showed very stable cycle-ability of the capacitance, but narrow micropores caused small capacitances by strong ion-sieving to TEA+ cation. The capacitance of the ACFs in EMImBF4 were higher than those in TEABF4/PC. However, their capacitances of the ACFs with narrow micropores dramatically decreased with the increasing cycle number, indicating that EMIm+ is adsorbed in the micropore irreversibly. The capacitance behavior of the ACFs in EMImBF4 can be explained by the stereo-chemical matching of the plane-like structure of EMIm+ cation with slit-like micropore of ACF and a strong adsorption of EMIm+ and carbon surface. Ketjen black (mesoporous carbon black) had high capacitance and good cycle-ability in EMImBF4 regardless of comparably low surface area to the ACF with narrow micropores. It suggests that wide-pore such as mesopores is effective in ion adsorption/desorption in EMImBF4.</p>
