The present invention relates to an electric double layer capacitor that utilizes an electric double layer capacitor formed by a polarizable electrode mainly made of activated carbon and an electrolyte interface. Conventionally, the main current collectors for polarizable electrodes using activated carbon have been plates or expanded metals made of corrosion-resistant metals such as nickel, platinum, and stainless steel. However, when a plate or expanded metal is used as a current collector, the activated carbon is supported on the current collector using a binder, so the conductivity and activated carbon retention are poor, and when it is turned into a product (electric double layer capacitor). Moreover, its internal impedance is large, and this is another factor that causes the capacity to decrease due to the activated carbon falling off. However, the present invention provides an electric double layer capacitor using stainless steel fibers as a current collector, thereby improving the conductivity of polarizable electrodes using activated carbon and improving the capacity reduction due to shedding of activated carbon. This is something to look forward to. First, a polarizable electrode of an electric double layer capacitor according to the present invention and a method of manufacturing the same will be explained.
For example, activated carbon of 270 to 325 meshes (50 μm) is used and supported on a felt-like piece of stainless steel fiber with a diameter of 50 μm. This 50μm diameter stainless steel fiber becomes 50μm when pressure/vacuum sintered.
Activated carbon with particles larger than this does not pass through, while particles with smaller particles can pass through. This relationship also applies to stainless steel fibers of other diameters, and if stainless steel fibers of 80 μm diameter are used, it is possible to determine whether or not they will pass through particles with a diameter of 80 μm.
Normally, the activated carbon that can be used has a limit of 200 meshes (80 μm), and the diameter of stainless steel fibers that can be used is also limited to about 80 μm.
Activated carbon of 270 to 325 mesh (50μm) as mentioned above
A felt material made of stainless steel fibers with a diameter of 50 μm is supported, and felt materials made of stainless steel fibers with a diameter of about 10 μm, which do not permeate the supported activated carbon, are placed above and below the felt material. Next, this is subjected to pressure/vacuum sintering treatment. Pressure/vacuum sintering conditions are determined by the particle size and type of activated carbon, the diameter of stainless steel fibers, etc. Further, the thickness of the activated carbon-impermeable stainless steel fibers disposed above and below the central stainless steel fiber containing activated carbon is preferably the minimum thickness that provides a strength that prevents activated carbon from permeating. Next, an example of an electric double layer capacitor according to the present invention using the polarizable electrode thus obtained will be described with reference to the drawings. 30mg of activated carbon with 325 mesh pass (44μm or less) is attached to felt 1 of 40μm diameter stainless steel fiber (SUS316L; 18%Cr/12%Ni/25%Mo, ultra-low carbon type steel), and 3μm of activated carbon is attached below it.
Polarizable electrodes 3 are obtained by sintering the stainless steel fibers 2, 2 under pressure and vacuum. This polarizable electrode 3 is a 40 μm diameter stainless steel fiber 1 containing activated carbon.
The stainless steel fibers are 1mm thick, 3μm in diameter, and the two sections are 0.2mm thick at the top and bottom, making the whole 1.2mm. An ion-permeable separator 4 made of synthetic fiber is interposed between one polarizable electrode 3 and the other polarizable electrode 3 thus obtained, and a capacitor is formed by impregnating this with a highly conductive organic electrolyte. A single element 5 is obtained. A conductor 6, such as a stainless steel plate, that does not allow the electrolyte to pass through is arranged between the elements 5,
Several layers were laminated to increase the withstand voltage, and finally the capacitor was sealed with a sealing member 7 to isolate it from the outside air, thereby obtaining an electric double layer capacitor 8 with a high withstand voltage. In the figure, 9 is a lead. The capacitance of this capacitor 8, determined from the DC current charging time, was 100,000 μF in external dimensions of φ8×12 mm. Table 1 shows a comparison of various characteristics between the embodiment of the present invention and the conventional example. Prior to the comparison, the conventional electric double layer capacitor will be briefly explained. 30mg of activated carbon from 325 mesh pass and carbon black as a conductive agent
A polarizable electrode is obtained by supporting 10 mg of the compound on stainless steel expanded methyl net using an organic binder. As in the above embodiment, a separator is interposed between two polarizable electrodes and impregnated with an electrolytic solution to obtain a capacitor element. This element is laminated in several layers with a conductor interposed between them, and sealed with a sealant to increase the capacitance.
A 100000μF electric double layer capacitor was obtained.
