Abstract: The present invention has its object to provide an electrolyte anion which is high in decomposition temperature, in order to inhibit the electrolyte anion in the electrolyte solution for electrolytic capacitors from undergoing decarboxylation in the lead-free solder reflowing step to thereby prevent valve opening. The present invention uses an electrolyte solution comprising, as an electrolyte, the salt (A) composed of ammonium cation (a) and a polybasic carboxylic acid (b) anion, wherein the proton part charge of each carboxyl group in the polybasic carboxylic acid (b) as calculated by the quantum mechanics calculation software CAChe-based AM1 method is not higher than 0.243.

Abstract: An electrolytic solution for electrolytic capacitors is disclosed which allows to generate higher spark voltages without inducing decrease in the specific electric conductivity. The electrolytic solution comprises an organic polar solvent (C) and further comprises a carboxylic acid (A0) and/or its salt (B) dissolved in the solvent, wherein the carboxylate anion (A) is characterized in that the energy of formation in water of its ionic complex (D) with aluminum ion is not more than ?250 kcal/mol and not less than ?500 kcal/mol as calculated by the MM3/PM3 method of the CAChe system.

Abstract: A toner with a glass transition point (Tg) before curing of not lower than 35° C., said toner comprising: a toner binder composed of a resin (I) selected from the group consisting of a cation-polymerizable thermoplastic resin (A) and a radical-polymerizable thermoplastic resin (B); and a colorant. The resins making up the toner binder are polymerizable ones and are cured in fixing the image on the support so that the number average molecular weight can be increased after the fixing step. That is, a toner binder with a low number average molecular weight can be used, and fixed at a low temperature and with low energy. Because of the low number average molecular weight, the toner is low in viscosity and excellent in gloss development and can produce high-quality multi-color images. Since the toner polymerizes and cures to increase in number average molecular weight while fixing, the hot offset is hardly caused, with a high fixing strength and an excellent wear resistance developed.
