Method for preparing electrolytic solution, electrolytic solution and electric double-layer capacitor

摘要

A method for preparing the electrolytic solution of an electric double-layer capacitor is provided, which undergoes cyclical charging and discharging within a predetermined operating range of voltage. The capacitor includes the electrolytic solution, electrodes and a casing for housing the electrolytic solution and electrodes. The method includes the step of preparing an ion concentration of the electrolytic solution so that the electrolytic solution turns to a nonconductor at a first predetermined voltage, which is so set as to be equal to or greater than the upper limit of the predetermined operating range of voltage and less than or equal to the maximum allowable voltage of the capacitor.
