VINATech Supercapacitor & Fuel Cell

Active Components proudly partnered with VINATech to expand our range of Supercapacitors and Fuel Cell Components. In this blog post, we will introduce these innovative products, designed to elevate the performance and efficiency of your next design.  

What is a supercapacitor?

Supercapacitors are environmentally friendly energy storage devices with low energy density and high-power density. They offer high current, fast charging and discharging, a long cycle life (over 500,000 cycles), and a durable lifespan across wide temperature ranges (-40˚C to +65˚C, up to +85˚C when derated). 

As a leading supercapacitor manufacturer, VINATech has been mass-producing the market-leading 3.0V supercapacitor family since 2010, which features 23% higher energy density than the traditional 2.7V supercapacitor. They are also the only manufacturer of hybrid capacitors that use PC electrolytes.

What is a Fuel Cell?  

A fuel cell is a type of generator that produces electricity through a chemical reaction involving hydrogen and oxygen as fuel. Fuel cells generate fewer pollutants than fossil fuel production and are attracting attention as an eco-friendly energy source, primarily because their byproduct is typically water. 

The fuel cell is used as a power source for transportation. (car, ship, train, drone, airplane, etc.) It can be used as a boiler and distributed power generation at housing/commercial buildings and for power plants.

VINATech Fuel Cell Components  

In 2002, VINATech secured the original technology for CNF (Carbon Nano Fiber) through its research and developed technologies for carbon activation, carbon shape control, carbon composite, and metal catalyst synthesis/adhesion. This secured technology is being applied to the mass production of fuel cell support, catalyst, and membrane electrode assembly (MEA).
