Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of capacitor technology, specifically to a wide-temperature-range liquid aluminum electrolytic capacitor with anti-drying properties and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Liquid capacitors typically consist of electrodes, an electrolyte, and an insulating medium. Their working principle is based on the fundamental characteristics of capacitance. When a voltage is applied to the two electrodes, positive and negative charges accumulate on the electrodes respectively. Ions in the electrolyte can then move under the influence of the electric field, assisting in the storage and release of charge, thereby achieving the function of storing electrical energy. Common liquid capacitors are aluminum electrolytic capacitors and tantalum electrolytic capacitors. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors use aluminum foil as electrodes and paper or other porous materials impregnated with electrolyte as the insulating medium. Due to their lower cost, higher rated voltage, wider capacitance range, mature manufacturing process, and widely available materials compared to tantalum electrolytic capacitors, aluminum electrolytic capacitors have a wider range of applications in audio circuits, communication equipment, industrial control, automotive electronics, and consumer electronics.
[0003] The electrolyte in aluminum electrolytic capacitors is formulated with various chemical reagents according to the required conductivity and flash voltage. It is the true negative electrode of the capacitor, and the main solvents are generally ethylene glycol and deionized water. Its conductivity directly affects the capacitor's losses and equivalent series resistance; the flash voltage determines the highest voltage the electrolyte can withstand; and the pH value affects the corrosiveness to the leads. Therefore, the electrolyte has a crucial impact on the electrochemical performance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors. However, existing electrolytes still suffer from a significant decrease in electrochemical performance at high and low temperatures.
[0004] To address this technical problem, patent document CN104217860B proposes an ultra-high temperature, long-life, low-voltage liquid aluminum electrolytic capacitor. This invention includes an aluminum shell containing electrolytic paper. The electrolytic paper wraps around an anode foil and a cathode foil, both connected to leads. The electrolytic paper is rolled into a core package using adhesive tape, and a rubber stopper is inserted at the top. The aluminum shell contains electrolyte, and a sleeve covers the outside of the shell. The electrolyte consists of γ-butyrolactone, ethylene glycol silica, and o-nitroanisole. The preparation method involves adding γ-butyrolactone, ethylene glycol silica, and o-nitroanisole together to a reaction vessel, heating to 140°C and maintaining the temperature for 24 hours to allow for complete reaction. After preparation, the mixture is cooled to 30°C. This invention can operate for 8000 hours at an ultra-high temperature of 135°C. However, these existing optimization methods mostly focus on improving the high-temperature resistance of capacitors, without considering the impact of low temperatures on capacitor performance. Therefore, the expansion of the operating temperature range of capacitors is limited. Summary of the Invention

[0032] As a further aspect of the present invention.
[0033] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0034] This invention provides a dry-proof, wide-temperature-range liquid aluminum electrolytic capacitor and its preparation method. The invention effectively improves the capacitor's service life and expands its operating temperature range through the following methods.
[0035] (1) This invention forms an alumina layer with suitable pore size and porosity on the surface of a substrate aluminum foil through anodizing. Its function is to enhance the bonding force between the substrate aluminum foil and the subsequent surface functional layer, and at the same time play a certain role in regulating ion transport in the electrolyte. Then, a sol-gel method is used to combine a mixed sol of nano-titanium dioxide and nano-silica with polyurethane acrylate containing fluorocarbon segments, and a thin film layer with good flexibility, corrosion resistance and thermal stability is formed on the alumina foil. Among them, the introduction of fluorocarbon segments improves the hydrophobicity of the coating and reduces the adhesion and drying risk of electrolyte on the electrode foil surface; nano-titanium dioxide and nano-silica enhance the mechanical strength and chemical stability of the coating, and at the same time have a certain shielding effect against ultraviolet rays, preventing the electrode foil from aging faster due to ultraviolet radiation at high temperature, and also promotes the migration of ions in the electrolyte to a certain extent, improving the performance of the capacitor at low temperature.
[0036] (2) Ethylene glycol has limited low-temperature performance. At low temperatures, its viscosity increases significantly, and its fluidity deteriorates, affecting the performance of electrolytic capacitors. Propylene carbonate, on the other hand, possesses good chemical stability, thermal stability, a relatively low freezing point, and good low-temperature fluidity. When added to ethylene glycol in a specific ratio, it can reduce the evaporation and decomposition of the electrolyte at high temperatures, lower the overall freezing point of the mixed solvent, and improve the fluidity of the electrolyte at low temperatures. This allows the electrolytic capacitor to maintain good performance over a wide temperature range, especially at low temperatures, reducing problems such as capacitance decrease and increased equivalent series resistance caused by low temperatures. Furthermore, propylene carbonate has good solubility for some electrolyte salts. When mixed with ethylene glycol, it can expand the solubility range and concentration of electrolytes in the electrolyte, allowing for better dissolution and dispersion of the electrolyte, forming a uniform and stable solution system. This improves the ion transport efficiency in the electrolyte, ensuring the performance stability and consistency of the electrolytic capacitor.
[0037] (3) The addition of a specific ratio of 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl acrylate can introduce a strong electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl group, thereby reducing the viscosity of the electrolyte and increasing the ion mobility; at the same time, the polymer network formed after polymerization can stabilize the electrolyte structure and inhibit the decomposition of the electrolyte at low temperature.
[0038] (4) Nano-silica-polyaniline composite particles possess excellent conductivity and adsorption properties. In the electrolyte, nano-silica can serve as a supporting framework, improving the stability of the electrolyte and preventing its delamination and drying. Polyaniline can enhance the conductivity of the electrolyte, especially under high-temperature conditions, effectively maintaining the electrical performance of the capacitor. Simultaneously, the presence of the composite particles can improve the interfacial contact between the electrolyte and the electrode, reduce the equivalent series resistance, and improve the charging and discharging efficiency of the capacitor. Therefore, the addition of synergists can effectively improve the stability of the electrolyte and the stability and electrochemical performance of the capacitor.
[0039] Therefore, the anti-drying wide-temperature-range liquid aluminum electrolytic capacitor prepared by this invention has superior anti-drying ability, low-temperature stability, high-temperature stability, and storage life. Detailed Implementation

Then, an alumina layer with suitable pore size and porosity is formed on the surface of the substrate aluminum foil through anodizing process. Its function is to enhance the bonding force between the substrate aluminum foil and the subsequent surface functional layer, and at the same time play a certain role in regulating ion transport in the electrolyte. Then, the nano-titanium dioxide and nano-silica mixed sol is compounded with polyurethane acrylate containing fluorocarbon segments by sol-gel method, and a thin film layer with good flexibility, corrosion resistance and thermal stability is formed on the alumina foil. Among them, the introduction of fluorocarbon segments improves the hydrophobicity of the coating and reduces the adhesion and drying risk of electrolyte on the surface of the electrode foil; nano-titanium dioxide and nano-silica enhance the mechanical strength and chemical stability of the coating, and at the same time have a certain shielding effect against ultraviolet rays, preventing the electrode foil from aging faster due to ultraviolet radiation in high temperature environment, and also promotes the migration of ions in the electrolyte to a certain extent, improving the performance of the capacitor in low temperature environment.
[0102] (2) Ethylene glycol has limited low-temperature performance. At low temperatures, its viscosity increases significantly, and its fluidity deteriorates, affecting the performance of electrolytic capacitors. Propylene carbonate, on the other hand, possesses good chemical stability, thermal stability, a relatively low freezing point, and good low-temperature fluidity. When added to ethylene glycol in a specific ratio, it can reduce the evaporation and decomposition of the electrolyte at high temperatures, lower the overall freezing point of the mixed solvent, and improve the fluidity of the electrolyte at low temperatures. This allows the electrolytic capacitor to maintain good performance over a wide temperature range, especially at low temperatures, reducing problems such as capacitance decrease and increased equivalent series resistance caused by low temperatures. Furthermore, propylene carbonate has good solubility for some electrolyte salts. When mixed with ethylene glycol, it can expand the solubility range and concentration of electrolytes in the electrolyte, allowing for better dissolution and dispersion of the electrolyte, forming a uniform and stable solution system. This improves the ion transport efficiency in the electrolyte, ensuring the performance stability and consistency of the electrolytic capacitor.
[0103] (3) The addition of a specific ratio of 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl acrylate can introduce a strong electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl group, thereby reducing the viscosity of the electrolyte and increasing the ion mobility; at the same time, the polymer network formed after polymerization can stabilize the electrolyte structure and inhibit the decomposition of the electrolyte at low temperature.
[0104] (4) Nano-silica-polyaniline composite particles possess excellent conductivity and adsorption properties. In the electrolyte, nano-silica can serve as a supporting framework, improving the stability of the electrolyte and preventing its delamination and drying. Polyaniline can enhance the conductivity of the electrolyte, especially under high-temperature conditions, effectively maintaining the electrical performance of the capacitor. Simultaneously, the presence of the composite particles can improve the interfacial contact between the electrolyte and the electrode, reduce the equivalent series resistance, and improve the charging and discharging efficiency of the capacitor. Therefore, the addition of synergists can effectively improve the stability of the electrolyte and the stability and electrochemical performance of the capacitor.
[0105] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of one embodiment of the present invention, but this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this invention should still fall within the patent coverage of this invention.
