PRODUCTION ENGINEERING MEASURE FOR COLUMBIUM CAPACITORS.

Abstract

The inspection and life testing of the ratings required for the preproduction run were completed. The results of these tests, together with the findings of studies conducted at Sprague's own expense, indicate that columbium cannot be used as a direct replacement for tantalum in electrolytic capacitors. It is Sprague's conclusion that the basis characteristics and limitations of columbium are such that the contract objectives are beyond the capability of the materia. (Author)
