Embodiment approach 1

[0015] When an alloy composed of titanium (Ti) and zirconium (Zr) is used for the anode conductor and the anode conductor is anodized in an electrolytic solution, an oxide film, ie, a dielectric layer, is formed on the surface of the anode. An electrolyte layer containing a conductive polymer is formed on the oxide film.

[0016] In the present invention, it has been found that when titanium, whose oxide film is excellent in relative permittivity, is selected from valve metals, titanium is alloyed with zirconium which is the same group as titanium, and the alloy is combined with an electrolyte containing a conductive polymer , both good capacitance and excellent leakage current characteristics can be obtained under specified conditions.

[0017] Since Ti and Zr are congener elements and form a complete solid solution, a uniform alloy can be advantageously obtained in any composition, and when Zr is contained at an atomic ratio of 20% or more, the leakage current decreases afte...

Embodiment 1

[0025] An alloy plate having an atomic ratio of Ti and Zr of 80:20 manufactured by the button arc melting method was used as an anode, and an anode containing 0.05 wt % phosphoric acid, 50 wt % a An electrolyte of glycol and water was used for anodization for 2 hours. The film thickness of the oxide film thus formed was measured by a transmission electron microscope to be 200 nm.

[0026] After that, a dispersion liquid of polythiophene as a conductive polymer was coated on the oxide film, and then the coated film was dried to form an electrolyte layer. In addition, graphite paste and silver paste were applied and cured to form a cathode drawing layer to obtain a solid electrolytic capacitor.

[0027] For the obtained solid electrolytic capacitor, capacitance was measured at a frequency of 120 Hz. Leakage current was also measured after applying a direct current voltage of 50 V for 5 minutes.

The film thickness of the oxide film thus formed was measured by a transmission electron microscope to be 190 nm.

[0030] After that, a dispersion liquid of polythiophene as a conductive polymer was coated on the oxide film, and then the coated film was dried to form an electrolyte layer. In addition, graphite paste and silver paste were applied and cured to form a cathode drawing layer to obtain a solid electrolytic capacitor.

Abstract

A solid electrolytic capacitor including an alloy composed of titanium and zirconium as an anode conductor, an oxide film obtained by anodizing the anode conductor as a dielectric layer, and a conductive polymer as an electrolyte, wherein an atomic ratio of titanium and zirconium in the alloy of the anode conductor is from 80:20 to 10:90 as Ti:Zr, and wherein a film thickness of the oxide film is 5 nm or more and 1000 nm or less.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a solid electrolytic capacitor in which an alloy of Ti and Zr is used for an anode, a dielectric layer composed of oxide is formed by anodic oxidation, and a conductive polymer is used as an electrolyte. Background technique [0002] In conventional solid electrolytic capacitors, a valve metal has been used for the anode, and an oxide of the valve metal has been formed as a dielectric layer on the surface of the anode by an electrolytic oxidation method or the like. As the valve metal, aluminum, tantalum, niobium, titanium, zirconium and the like are known. In particular, in recent years, it has been required to further increase the capacity of capacitors, and therefore titanium whose oxide film has a high dielectric constant to be used has been studied. [0003] However, an electrolytic capacitor manufactured by electrolytic oxidation of titanium has a problem of causing a larger leakage current than conventional comm...
