Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve wettability by electrolyte and liquid retentivity and lengthen the life of capacitor, by using a separator wherein a melt-blown unwoven fabric is coated with inorganic oxide powder. CONSTITUTION:An electric double layer capacitor is provided with an dish type case main body 2 and a cap 4 covering the case main body 2 via a gasket 3. Electrolyte is injected into the case main body 2 and the cap 4, and each of the polarizable electrodes 5, 6 is impregnated with the electrolyte. A separator 7 is arranged between the polarizable electrodes 5, 6. When the electrodes 5, 6 are impregnated with the electrolyte, the separator 7 also is impregnated with said electrolyte. Hence a melt-blown unwoven fabric coated with inorganic oxide powder is used as the separator 7. Thereby the surface area of the separator 7 is increased, so that the wetability by the electrolyte and liquid retentivity are improved.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In order to ensure that the separator 7 is also impregnated with the electrolyte when the polarizable electrodes 5 and 6 are impregnated with the electrolyte, the separator 7 is provided with a material that has a wettability to the electrolyte. Liquid retention power is required.

[0008] From this point of view, nonwoven fabrics such as polypropylene and polyethylene are preferable, but they have low mechanical strength as they are. Therefore, glass fiber is mixed in. Since the wire diameter of glass fibers can be made thinner, the mechanical strength is increased and the overall surface area is expanded, thereby increasing the liquid retention capacity.

However, there are the following problems in manufacturing. That is, after glass fibers are mixed in, rollers are applied, but at that time they may fall out, causing pinholes. Further, the separator 7 is punched out from the mother sheet using a die, but since glass fiber is mixed in, the punching die is subject to considerable wear and tear.

[0012] Melt-blown nonwoven fabrics are preferable in terms of moldability and mechanical strength, but because of their large wire diameters, their surface area is small, and their wettability and liquid retention ability with respect to electrolytic solutions are not very good.
