The capacitive behavior of TiC-derived carbon powders in two different electrolytes, NEt4BF4 in acetonitrile (AN) and NEt4BF4 in propylene carbonate (PC), was studied using the cavity microelectrode (CME) technique. Comparisons of the cyclic voltammograms recorded at 10-1000 mV/s enabled correlation between adsorbed ion sizes and pore sizes, which is important for understanding the electrochemical capacitive behavior of carbon electrodes for electrical double-layer capacitor applications. The CME technique also allows a fast selection of carbon electrodes with matching pore sizes (different sizes are needed for the negative and positive electrodes) for the respective electrolyte system. Comparison of electrochemical capacitive behavior of the same salt, NEt4BF4, in different solvents, PC and AN, has shown that different pore sizes are required for different solvents, because only partial desolvation of ions occurs during the double-layer charging. Squeezing partially solvated ions into subnanometer pores, which are close to the desolvated ion size, may lead to distortion of the shape of cyclic voltammograms.
