INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION FIELD The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a counter electrode of an electrochromic display device (hereinafter abbreviated as ECD). Conventional structure and problems ECD uses an electrochromic display material as a display electrode, an electrolyte exists between it and a counter electrode, and a voltage is applied between the display electrode and the counter electrode. This is a display device that utilizes a phenomenon in which the display electrode electrochemically causes a reduction or oxidation reaction, causing the display electrode to develop or discolor. Conventionally, this type of display device uses a transition metal oxide such as tungsten oxide or molybdenum oxide or an organic electrochromic material such as viologen as a display material, and generally uses electrochemical reversible redox as a counter electrode. A molded mixture of an active material and carbon as a conductive material was used. However, conventional ECDs have the disadvantage of poor display memory performance, reducing the commercial value of ECDs. What is "memory performance" here?
A voltage of -1V for 1 second is applied to the display electrode of an ECD to make it colored, and it is the ratio of the amount of electricity remaining in the display electrode to the amount of colored electricity after 24 hours at room temperature. OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for manufacturing a counter electrode of an ECD that improves the above-mentioned drawbacks and has excellent memory performance. Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is to perform a cleaning treatment on a counter electrode carbon material with at least one of an aqueous sulfuric acid solution, an aqueous hydrochloric acid solution, and an aqueous nitric acid solution. Although the reason for the improvement in memory performance due to such a simple process is not clear, the inventors estimate the following from the results of functional group titration on the carbon surface. It is said that various functional groups having oxidizing or reducing effects exist on the surface of carbon. A representative functional group for oxidizing action is a quinone group, and a representative functional group for reducing action is a hydroquinone group. When the cleaning treatment of the present invention is performed,
A decrease in quinone groups was confirmed. In other words, when unwashed carbon is used, fine carbon powder holding quinone groups is eluted from the counter electrode into the electrolyte, reaches the display electrode, and oxidizes the display electrode, which is in a reduced state (colored state). (equivalent to a decoloring reaction), resulting in a decline in memory performance. on the other hand,
It is believed that when cleaned carbon was used, the above-mentioned adverse effects on the display board were reduced and memory performance was improved. DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS The figure is a sectional view of an embodiment of an ECD manufactured by the method of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a glass substrate, 2 is a thin film transparent electrode made of indium oxide, tin oxide, etc., and 3 is a display electrode provided on the thin film transparent electrode 2, which is constructed by vapor-depositing tungsten oxide to a thickness of 3000 angstroms. 4 is the back glass substrate,
5 is an alumina reflector, 6 is a counter electrode, 7 is an electrolytic solution (a propylene carbonate solution containing 0.3 MLiBF 4 ), and 8 is a current collector. An insulating film 9 made of SiO 2 or the like is provided on the thin film transparent electrode 2 other than the display electrode 3 . Next, two types of carbon materials, graphite and channel black, were used as the counter electrode, and 10 -4 M,
Cleaning treatment was performed with sulfuric acid aqueous solutions of three different concentrations: 0.01M and 1M. That is, 50 g of carbon was dispersed in 2000 c.c. of sulfuric acid aqueous solution, stirred for 15 hours, washed with a large amount of pure water to remove sulfuric acid, and further dried at 105° C. for 10 hours. Next, each carbon and fluorine resin were mixed at a weight ratio of 1:1, and the mixed powder was pressure-molded onto a stainless steel net current collector, and a counter electrode was used to fabricate an ECD. Table 1 shows the results of investigating the relationship between the amount of quinone groups in carbon after cleaning treatment and the memory performance of the fabricated ECD.

ある。[Table] As is clear from Table 1, when unwashed carbon is used, the memory performance is only 0-2%, but when washed with sulfuric acid aqueous solution, the amount of quinone groups decreases, and the memory performance decreases by 25%. % or more memory performance was achieved. Table 2 shows the results of cleaning treatment with an aqueous hydrochloric acid solution or an aqueous nitric acid solution, and it was confirmed that memory performance was similarly improved even when an aqueous solution of an acid other than sulfuric acid was used. Note that the channel black used here is different from that in Table 1.

It has been found that by using graphite with a weight of 1.5 g or more, the amount of coloring electricity can be maintained and the memory performance can be improved. Effects of the Invention As explained above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide an ECD with excellent memory performance and high commercial value. Note that the present invention is not limited to cases in which the display material is tungsten oxide, and may be applied to other display materials,
It goes without saying that it is also applicable to ECDs using transition metal oxides such as molybdenum oxide alone, a mixture of tungsten oxide and molybdenum oxide, and organic electrochromic materials such as viologen. Further, the electrolytic solution is not limited to propylene carbonate, and it goes without saying that it is also applicable to ECD using gamma-butyrolactone or the like.
