Multi-shell fullerenes known as onion-like carbon (OLC) are especially attractive in applications relative to energy storage, such as electrochemical capacitors, due to a near-spherical shape of particles, their nanoscale diameters and high conductivity leading to fast rate performance. Because of this, onion-like carbon can be fabricated into electrodes, used as a conductive additive, and may have potential in composites and additive manufacturing. However due to agglomeration of OLC particles, creating a stable, aqueous dispersion for ink production or formulating composites proves challenging. We explore how attrition milling, acid treatment, and probe sonication can be employed to decrease agglomeration and provide colloidal stability in aqueous media. We also investigate how the electrochemical performance changes with each processing step as well as the treatments in succession. When tested in electrochemical capacitors, the processing increases the capacitance by a factor of three, due to an added pseudocapacitive contribution which is not present in untreated OLC. As a result, the processing of OLC proves to be advantageous for the production of stable, aqueous solutions, which also exhibit improved electrochemical properties suitable for functional inks, conductive additives, and fabrication of composite electrodes. Electrochemical capacitors are widely studied due to their affordable and efficient electrical energy storage which is needed to enable widespread use of renewable energy sources and provide energy security.1 These devices strive to solve energy issues by providing quick charge-discharge (millisecond to second time constants), high power densities and long cycle lives. Mainly due to the mechanism by which charge is stored, these devices, unlike batteries, store energy by physical adsorption of ions leading to the formation of the electric double layer on the electrode. Due to the performance metrics necessary to achieve functioning devices, the electrode is commonly made from highly conductive, thermally and electrically stable, large surface area carbon materials such as activated carbon (AC), and carbide-derived carbon (CDC).1 Carbon black or carbon nanotubes are often added to the activated carbon and other electrode materials to improve their electronic conductivity and performance at high rates.2 Another carbon material, onion-like carbon (OLC) has also shown promise in electrochemical capacitors because of a unique, multishell fullerene structure with nanoscale diameters (5-10 nm).3-8 OLC can be considered as the ultimate carbon black because of its small particle size and high electrical conductivity. These materials have accessible and non-functionalized external surface areas, enabling the quick charging and discharging necessary for electrochemical capacitors. Previously investigated OLC-based microsupercapacitors, fabricated with interdigitated architectures, achieved high-rate performance, delivered stack capacitances four orders of magnitude higher than that of electrolytic capa...
