Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electric double-layer capacitor, in which liquid will not leak by a method where a single cell is connected individually constitute the electric double-layer capacitor of a high-voltage type and a high-current type. SOLUTION: A gel electrolyte 50 is used as an element constituting the electric double-layer capacitor. As the gel electrolyte 50, a polyacrylonitrile-based gel electrolyte, a PVd-based gel electrolyte or a polyethylene oxide-based gel electrolyte is used. The electric double-layer capacitor using the gel electrolyte 50 is inserted into an aluminum laminated film bag 40 so as to be heat-sealed. The single cell whose seal with reference to the open air is completed is obtained. A collector terminal 60 and a collector terminal 70 for the single cell are used as negative electrodes on one side. Two each of positive terminals and negative terminals are taken out from four sides, when a large current is extracted.
