Abstract
The effects of compressive force and the addition of conductive fillers on ultracapacitor electrode performance measurements were studied. We have shown that the force exerted by typical battery coin cell components is inadequate, resulting in erroneous measurements of electrode performance. We further demonstrated that with modest modifications, coin cell measurements can equal those of specialized test fixtures and of packaged cells.
