A new type electric double layer capacitor (EDLC) was constructed by using carbon nanofibers (CNFs) and DAAQ(1,5-diaminoanthraquinone) electrode. Carbonaceous materials are found in variety forms such as graphite, diamond, carbon fibers etc. While all the carbon nanofibers include impurities such as amorphous carbon, nanoparticles, catalytic metals and incompletely grown carbons. We have eliminated of Ni particles and some carbonaceous particles in nitric acid. Nitric acid treated CNFs could be covered with very thin DAAQ oligomer from the results of CV and TG analyses and SEM images. A crystalline supramolecular oligomer of 1,5-diaminoanthraquinone(DAAQ) was successfully prepared as a thin film by electrochemical oxidation from an acidic non-aqueous medium. DAAQ oligomer film exhibited a specific capacity as 45-50 Ah/kg in 4M $H_2SO_4$. Its electrochemical characteristics were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. And compared with different electrolyte of aqueous type. During ultrasonic irradiation CNFs was to disperse in 0.1M $H_2SO_4$. As a result, CNFs coated by DAAQ composite electrode showed relatively good electrochemical behaviors.

We have investigated various kind of graphite and MCMB6-28 to develop carbon negative electrode for lithium ion secondary battery. The interlayer length of them was $3.358{\sim}3.363{\AA}$ and the BET specific surface area was $2.95{\sim}26.15m^2/g$. From this study, When the interlayer of them was large and the BET specific surface area was high, the electrochemical characteristics of them was very excellent. Adding 0, 3, 5, wt% of KJ-Black as conducting agent to various graphitic carbon active materials, interface resistance of electrode and electrolyte was less, but rechargeability was better at 3 wt%. At constant current charge and discharge test, discharge capacity was small according to large current.
