A DES based on urea and choline chloride with at a molar ration of 2:1 has also been included for comparison. The electrochemical supercapacitors were prepared using commercial activated carbon electrodes after removing the volatile organic electrolyte with a vacuum pump. The characteristics of the electrochemical supercapacitors were determined by cyclic voltammetry at temperature room temperature and also after heating at 353 K using scan rates that varied from 2 to 25 mVs-1. Lowest scan rate led to higher specific capacitance of 150±8 Fg-1 with a maximum applied potential of 1.7 V for the urea and choline chloride DES with a molar ration of 2:1. The lactic acid with all the hydrogen bond acceptors with a molar ratio 7:1 it has been necessary to increase the temperature above room temperature to improve the specific capacitance.openAccesselectrolytescapacitorslayerselectrochemical cellsResumo de eventos científicos0000-0001-6072-5853https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6072-5853
