An electric double layer capacitor includes a first collector, a first polarizable electrode layer provided on the first collector, a second collector, a second polarizable electrode layer provided on the second collector and facing the first polarizable electrode layer, a separator having an insulating property and provided between the first polarizable electrode layer and the second polarizable electrode layer, and a driving electrolyte impregnated in the first polarizable electrode layer and the second polarizable electrode layer. The polarizable electrode layers mainly contain activated carbon made from phenol resin, have a surface roughness not larger than 0.6 mum, and have an electrode density ranging from 0.5 g/cm3 to 0.7 g/cm3. This electric double layer capacitor has characteristics deteriorating little even at low temperatures, thus having a reliability for a long time. |
