Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electrolytic capacitor includes a capacitor element containing a conductive polymer and a liquid component. The liquid component includes a first anion component and a second anion component. The first anion component has a carbonyloxy bond. The second anion component has no carbonyloxy bond and has a sulfonylimide bond.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An electrolytic capacitor comprising: a capacitor element containing a conductive polymer; and a liquid component, wherein the liquid component includes a first anion component and a second anion component, the first anion component having a carbonyloxy bond, the second anion component having no carbonyloxy bond and having a sulfonylimide bond. 2. The electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein an acid dissociation constant pKa of the second anion component in a form of a free acid is 5.0 or less. 3. The electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein a content of the second anion component in the liquid component ranges from 3 parts by mass to 250 parts by mass, inclusive, with respect to 100 parts by mass of the first anion component. 4. The electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid component further includes a cation component. 5. The electrolytic capacitor according to claim 4 , wherein a molar ratio of the first anion component to the cation component in the liquid component ranges from 1 to 10, inclusive.
