摘要:
A process for producing an electrode for an electric double layer capacitor, in which water is used as a forming auxiliary agent and kneading an pulverizing steps are omitted to improve production efficiency, and a process for producing an electric double layer capacitor employing such a electrode, are provided. In a first mixing step, an activated carbon and a carbon black are mixed by a grinder containing a grinding medium. As the grinder containing a grinding medium used in this first mixing step, a commonly used ball mill can be used. In the second mixing step, a mixture is taken out from the grinder containing a grinding medium of the first mixing step, and moved into a second mixer prepared separately. Then, polytetrafluoroethylene as a binder and water as a liquid lubricant are added and the materials are mixed again. Thereafter, a calendar forming is carried out. The mixture obtained by the second mixing step is not a clumpy body of clay state or rubber state but a product which can be easily turned into grains of 1 to 2 mm, by simple means such as a wire sieve.

An electric double layer capacitor includes, contained in a casing, an electrolyte and positive and negative electrodes each containing carbon black, to form an electric double layer at the interface with the electrolyte, and a separator interposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. At least one electrode of the positive electrode and the negative electrode has protruded portions or bent portions formed continuously in the height direction against the bottom face of the casing. Further, a space due to the height of the protruded portions or the bent portions is formed between the at least one electrode and the separator.
