Abstract

This study shows the effect of addition of $LiCoO_2$, with different milling time ranging from 0, 30, 200 hours, to the activated carbon electrode. Test cells consisting of activated carbon (100-X%) and $LiCoO_2$ (X%)were made (where X=10, 20, and 40). Test cells with varying concentrations of $LiCoO_2$ which differ in the milling time showed improved specific capacity compare with the cells fabricated using activated carbon alone. The enhanced capacity may be caused due to the addition of $LiCoO_2$ powders at varying concentration. An improved ESR value obtained may be caused by the smaller particle size of $LiCoO_2$. It was concluded that finer the particle size higher will be the efficiency.
