Abstract

A film capacitor that includes a resin layer which has a first surface and a second surface and in which there are particles on at least one of the first surface and the second surface; and a metal layer on the first surface of the resin layer, wherein there are more particles in number on the at least one of the first surface and the second surface of the resin layer than inside the resin layer.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A film capacitor comprising:
a resin layer which has a first surface and a second surface and in which there are particles on at least one of the first surface and the second surface; and
a metal layer in direct contact with the first surface of the resin layer,
wherein there are more particles in number on the at least one of the first surface and the second surface of the resin layer than inside the resin layer, and there are no particles inside the resin layer.

2. The film capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio of a diameter of the particles to a thickness of the resin layer is 0.04 to 0.13.

3. The film capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein the particles are on the first surface of the resin layer, and at least some of surfaces of the particles are exposed at the metal layer.

4. The film capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein an average particle diameter of the particles is 0.1 μm to 0.4 μm.

5. The film capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein there are 5 to 16 particles per 0.001188 mm 2 of the at least one of the first surface and the second surface of the resin layer having the particles thereon.

6. The film capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the resin layer is 1 μm to 5 μm.

7. The film capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein the particles comprise inorganic particles.

8. The film capacitor according to claim 7 , wherein the inorganic particles are silica particles.

9. The film capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein a height of the particles protruding from the resin layer is 0.005 μm to 0.1 μm.

10. A method for manufacturing a film-capacitor film, the method comprising:
attaching particles to a resin-solution-coating surface of a base material film;
forming a resin layer by coating the resin-solution-coating surface of the base material film with a resin solution;
transferring the particles from the resin-solution-coating surface of the base material film to a surface of the resin layer by peeling the resin layer off the base material film such that there are more particles in number on the surface of the resin layer than inside the resin layer, and there are no particles inside the resin layer; and
forming a metal layer directly on the surface of the resin layer.
