PRODUCTION ENGINEERING MEASURE FOR THE IMPROVED RELIABILITY OF CAPACITORS, FIXED SOLID ELECTROLYTE, TANTALUM HIGH-RELIABILITY 10MFD-20 VOLT CAPACITORS.

Abstract

Work was performed in four areas of process improvement studies: (1) anodizing and re-forming; (2) pyrolytic conversion; (3) carbon and silver coating; and (4) screening and dielectric absorption. The major results of the studies show that: (1) new anodizing racks and anodizing cathodes have provided high product uniformity at anodizing and improved electrical characteristics over previous anodizing conditions; (2) conditions of flow and of heat exchange of the conversion atmosphere, and conversion times, have been optimized, base d upon the magnitudes of the final re-forming currents; and (3) the best electrical results, based upon comparative studies, have been obtained with three carbon coats applied to the anodes and extended carbon and silver coating curing cycles.
