In this work, we prepared activated carbon-based symmetric supercapacitors using Li₂SO₄ aqueous electrolyte instead of H₂SO₄ and KOH, and obtained devices with an improved working voltage of 1.6 V from 1.0 V. Cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charging/discharging measurements were used to study the electrochemical properties. The results showed that the electrode specific capacitance can reach 129 F·g^-1, and the energy density can be as high as 10 Wh·kg^-1 at a power density of 160 Wh·kg^-1. Electrochemical impedance analysis measurements showed that the charge-transfer resistance of the capacitors decreased markedly with the increase of the concentration of Li₂SO₄, and the rate capability improved accordingly. The leakage current of the supercapacitor was 0.22 mA after constant-voltage charging at 1.6 V for 1 h, and the columbic efficiency was nearly 100%. The capacitance of the supercapacitor remained above 90% after 5000 charge-discharge cycles. Activated carbon-based supercapacitors using Li₂SO₄ aqueous electrolyte have many advantages, such as high working voltage, high energy density, and environmental compatibility, and therefore have od industrialization prospects.
