An electric double-layer capacitor includes a cell structure constituted by laminating basic cells in series with their collectors serving as connections. Each of the basic cells includes a pair of collectors, a separator disposed between the collectors, and a pair of polarizable electrodes which are disposed between the collectors and the separator and in which an electrolytic solution is contained. The capacitor further includes lead terminal/electrode plate assemblies each having an electrode plate electrically connected to the collectors at opposite ends of the cell structure. Each of the collectors includes a matrix made of an elastomer having a hardness Hs in a range of about 55 (inclusive) to lower than about 85 at ambient temperature, and conductive particles dispersed in the matrix. Thus, in the electric double-layer capacitor, a lower ESR can be realized at in initial stage and even after the service for a long period.
