2. Description of the Related Art As an electric double layer capacitor of this type, there is a capacitor whose cross section is shown in FIG. In the figure,
A polarizable electrode 5 made of activated carbon 2, a binder 3 made of polyvinylpyroidon, an electrolyte 4, and a solvent (not shown) made of propylene carbonate is provided with a separator 1 made of polypropylene permeable to an electrolyte and not electronically conductive therebetween. The collector electrode 6 made of a metal film was provided on the surface of the polarizable electrode 5. In this structure, when a direct current voltage is applied to the collecting electrode 6, an electric double layer is formed at the interface between the activated carbon 2 in the polarizable electrode 5 and the electrolytic solution to store a large amount of electricity.

However, in the above-mentioned structure, the collector electrode 6 made of a metal film having a thickness of 20 to 50 μm is added to supplement the self-shape-preserving ability of the binder 3.
Has a low energy density of 6 J / cm 3 ,
Since the polarizable electrode 5 is a mixture of the activated carbon 2, the binder 3 and the electrolyte 4, the electrolyte hardly penetrates into the polarizable electrode.
There was a problem that the internal impedance at 20 Hz was as high as 1Ω.

In FIG. 1, 7 is a separator made of a glass fiber cloth which is electrolyte permeable and non-electroconductive. Reference numeral 8 is a polarizable electrode composed of a porous body 12 having a communicating hole 11 made of a phenol resin-based activated carbon 9 and a fluororesin 10 and an electrolyte 13 made of tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate. The solvent is propylene carbonate, and 0.1 mol of electrolyte is dissolved in 1 liter volume thereof. The weight ratio of activated carbon 9 to fluororesin 10 was 1: 9.

A collector electrode 14 made of aluminum and having a thickness of 1 μm was provided on the surface of the polarizable electrode 8 by plasma spraying. According to the electric double layer capacitor having the above structure, the polarizable electrode 8 has the porous body 12 including the activated carbon 9 and the fluororesin 10.
Since the internal impedance is lowered, the ability to preserve the self-shape is increased, and the thickness of the collecting electrode 14 may be about 1 μm, so that the energy density is increased.

Although phenolic resin-based activated carbon was used as the activated carbon in the examples, similar effects can be obtained by using chopped carbon fibers, glassy carbon, graphite powder or the like instead. Further, although tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate was used as the electrolyte, the same effect can be obtained by using an electrolyte such as tetraethylammonium perchlorate in place of this. Further, although aluminum is used as the collector electrode, the same effect can be obtained by using tantalum, titanium, titanium oxide, or an oxide of a noble metal instead of aluminum. Although the glass fiber cloth is used as the separator, the same effect can be obtained by using an electrolyte permeable non-electroconductive separator such as polypropylene instead of the glass fiber cloth.
