An electrode (34) for use in supercapacitors is provided, comprising a sheet of a first active electrode (30) comprising metal oxides, chlorides, bromides, sulfates, nitrates, sulfides, hydrides, nitrides, phsophides, or selenides (22) coated onto porous carbon particles (20). The coated carbon particles are bound together in a matrix (24) of a fluorocarbon resin. The first electrode (30) is laminated to a dielectric separator (32), and a second active electrode (30) similar in composition to the first is laminated to the other side of the dielectric separator (32). |
