Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of thin film capacitor structures, and particularly relates to a thin film capacitor with excellent moisture resistance performance. Background Art
[0002] The metallized film capacitor is a main electronic component in electronic devices. The metallized film capacitor adopts a non-inductive winding structure of metallized film, has good self-healing performance, high insulation resistance, and stable capacitance. It is suitable for DC and pulsating circuits and is widely used in various electronic appliances, electrical equipment, and filtering, DC blocking, bypass, coupling, and noise reduction in the new energy field.
[0003] At present, the moisture resistance performance of metallized film capacitors, especially metallized films, is relatively poor. Because the metallized film is a zinc-aluminum metal evaporated on the film surface with a thickness of nanometers, it is very easy to oxidize. During use, the metal layer oxidizes, the loss of the capacitor increases, the thin film capacitor heats up, the heat causes the internal metal layer to oxidize more severely, the loss increases more, and finally a vicious cycle is caused, and even the product melts through and even safety problems such as combustion occur. Therefore, how to improve the moisture resistance performance of metallized film capacitors is to do a good job in moisture resistance protection for the metal layer of the metallized film.
[0004] The current main method is to coat a layer of antioxidant silicone oil with a nanometer-level thickness on the surface of the metal layer during the manufacturing process of the metallized film. However, due to the high-temperature treatment during the production process of the metallized film capacitor, the antioxidant silicone oil will volatilize, and finally the protection effect on the metal layer is not good. Especially as the use time goes by, the antioxidant ability of the silicone oil gradually decreases, and finally the product fails.
[0005] At present, the encapsulation of the metallized film capacitor is mainly a plastic shell on the outside, a core formed by winding the metallized film inside, and epoxy resin potting glue is filled in the middle. Specifically Figure 1 As shown, because the plastic shell and the potting material have a certain water absorption. For example, most plastic shells use PBT, and the water absorption rate of PBT is 0.1%. At the same time, because the epoxy resin potting material is filled with inorganic powder objects inside, its absorption rate is generally between 1% and 3%. During the long-term humid and hot use environment, water vapor will slowly penetrate into the inside to contact the core, and finally oxidize the metal layer of the metallized film. Content of the Utility Model
[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a thin film capacitor with excellent moisture resistance performance.
[0007] The above technical purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0008] A thin-film capacitor with excellent moisture resistance, comprising leads, a capacitor core, a housing and potting material. The capacitor core is formed by winding a metallized film. Two leads are welded on both sides of the capacitor core. A nano waterproof material is coated on the surface of the capacitor core to form a first waterproof spray layer. The capacitor core is placed into a housing made of plastic material and encapsulated with potting material to form a metallized film capacitor.
[0009] Further, a second waterproof spray layer is sprayed on the inner wall of the housing.
[0010] Preferably, the first waterproof spray layer and the second waterproof spray layer adopt nano silica sol waterproof materials.
[0011] Further, the potting material adopts epoxy resin.
[0012] In summary, the present utility model has the following beneficial effects: By innovating the encapsulation of the metallized film capacitor, waterproof spray layers are sprayed on the outside of the capacitor core and the inner wall of the plastic housing, improving the moisture resistance of the product, reducing the damage to the internal metallized film caused by water vapor intrusion during use, simply isolating water vapor, and having the advantages of low cost, easy operation, high efficiency and high reliability.
