In this paper, the synthetic parameters of electrochemical oxidation of carbon cloth including electrolyte temperature, electrolyte refreshing, cation content and concentration of oxidant, oxidation time and applied potential were studied. The electrochemical behaviors of oxidized carbon cloths were examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge/discharge (GCD) in sulfuric acid (H2SO4) as electrolyte using a potentiostat/galvanostat analyzer. The electrochemical oxidation was carried out using a potentiostat technique in the presence of ammonium sulfate ((NH4)2SO4) as an inorganic oxidant. Results indicated the optimum synthetic parameters for achieving a high capacitance oxidized carbon cloth. In second part, the electrochemical oxidation of carbon cloth using the optimized parameters was comprised with hydrothermal oxidation route by using concentrated nitric acid (HNO3) regarding the electrochemical activity of their resultant oxidized and activated carbon cloths. The results showed that the electrochemical oxidation is desirable route for activating the carbon cloth quickly for use in supercapacitor applications.
