Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an electric double layer capacitor employing organic solution principally as electrolyte in which the capacitance is enhanced while decreasing the internal resistance. <P>SOLUTION: A carbonaceous conductive material containing 6 wt.% or more of Ketjenblack having specific surface area of 1000 m<SP>2</SP>/g or more is employed in a polarizing electrode. Since Ketjenblack has a shell structure and the pore size is larger than that of active carbon used conventionally, absorption probability of solvated electrolyte is high and the capacitance can be increased. Furthermore, since Ketjenblack has a conductivity higher than that of active carbon, internal resistance can be decreased when it is employed. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

The electric double layer capacitors using these two types of electrolytic solutions have the following advantages and disadvantages. The advantage of the aqueous electrolytic solution is that it has a high capacitance. Further, since the electrolytic solution has a low electric resistance, the internal resistance as a capacitor is low, and it is suitable for large-current load discharge. The disadvantage is that the decomposition potential (withstand voltage) of the electrolyte is as low as 1.2V. Therefore, the energy density becomes small, and many capacitors are forced to be connected in series when high energy is used, and there is a problem in terms of long-term use reliability.

On the other hand, the advantage of the organic solution type electrolytic solution is that it is suitable for use in a high energy region since the withstand voltage of the electrolytic solution is as high as three times that of the aqueous solution type electrolytic solution. The disadvantage is that the internal resistance of the capacitor is as high as 5 to 10 times that of the aqueous electrolyte solution, so that it is not suitable for a large current load. Even if the same polarizable electrode is used, the capacitance is one third of that of the aqueous electrolyte.
Becomes smaller. The capacitance accumulated in the electric double layer is generally represented by the formula 1.

From Equation 1, it can be seen that a large capacity electric double layer capacitor can be obtained by using an electrode having a large specific surface area, and the electrostatic capacity depends on the specific surface area. 1500m
If you use activated carbon with a specific surface area of about 2 / g, 300F
The calculation holds that a polarizable electrode having a capacity of / g is formed. However, the electrostatic capacity of the aqueous solution type electric double layer capacitor is different from that of the organic solution type electric double layer capacitor, and the organic type electrolytic solution capacitor is smaller.

The cause of this is the distribution of pore sizes. In the electric double layer capacitor, capacity is developed by adsorbing solvated ions at the interface between the electrolytic solution and the polarizable electrode. However, the ease of adsorption depends on the size of the solvated ion and the pore size, and it is not preferable if the pore size is too large or too small for the solvated ion.

If the pore size is too large for the solvated ions, the adsorptive power will weaken and the capacity will drop at large currents. Further, if the pore size is equal to or smaller than the size of the solvated ions, adsorption in the pores is not possible, and the transport number of the electrolyte is small, so that the capacity does not appear.

It has been empirically known that the optimum value of the pore diameter is about twice the minor axis diameter of the adsorbed molecule.
Since the short axis diameter of the solvated ions of the organic electrolyte is about 1 nm, the optimum pore diameter is 2 nm. Figure 1
The pore size distribution of general activated carbon conventionally used for electric double layer capacitors is shown. As is clear from FIG.
The pore size distribution of activated carbon has a peak in the vicinity of 1 nm and shows a rapid decrease at this point.

Therefore, when activated carbon, which is difficult to design the optimum pore size, is used for the organic electrolyte type electric double layer capacitor,
Many pores do not work. In addition, activated carbon generally has a considerably low electric conductivity, and there is a problem that the activated carbon alone cannot increase a large current because the internal resistance of the electrode increases.

Therefore, when an electrode is formed by using activated carbon powder, a conductive material such as acetylene black or furnace black is usually mixed in the polarizable electrode. However, when the mixing ratio of the conductive material is increased for the purpose of reducing the internal resistance, the mixing ratio of the activated carbon is decreased and the specific surface area as the electrode is decreased, so that the capacity is decreased.
