  • Patent number: 9978527
    Abstract: A solid electrolytic capacitor includes: an anode foil on which an oxide film is formed; a cathode foil; and a separator between the anode and cathode foils, wherein a solid electrolyte in a fine particle form made of a conductive high molecular weight compound and a water-soluble high-molecular weight compound in a liquid form are introduced into a gap between the anode and cathode foils in a state where the water-soluble high-molecular weight compound in a liquid form surrounds the solid electrolyte, and a ratio of an area that the solid electrolyte occupies in the gap is set to a value which falls within a range of 1 vol % to 30 vol %, and a ratio of an area that the water-soluble high-molecular weight compound in a liquid form occupies in the gap is set to a value which falls within a range of 10 vol % to 99 vol %.
