Abstract: The present invention aims to address a problem of contact failure likely to occur in the joint between an internal lead and an external terminal and to provide a reliable aluminum electrolytic capacitor. To this end, an aluminum electrolytic capacitor of the present invention is structured so that a through-hole provided through an internal lead has a diameter smaller than the outer diameter of an aluminum rivet and the peripheral edge of this through-hole is drawn to provide a cylindrical portion integral with the through-hole.

Abstract: The polymer electrolyte composite, for driving an electrolytic capacitor, according to the present invention is a composite body including an electrolyte and an acrylic polymer containing a copolymer of acrylic derivative. The electrolyte includes a polar solvent and a solute including at least one of inorganic acids, organic acids and salts of such acids. The copolymer of acrylic derivative is a polymer of: a first monomer of at least one of a group of monofunctional monomers of acrylic derivatives each having at least one hydroxyl group at a terminal thereof and a polymerizable unsaturated double bond; and a second monomer of at least one of a group of multifunctional monomers of acrylic derivatives each having plural polymerizable unsaturated double bonds. The polymer electrolyte composite has a high ionic conductivity at room temperature together with a high heat resistance, and does not react with electrode foils such as aluminum, and moreover is superior in the easiness of manufacturing and long life.
