Abstract

The method for preparing an electrolyte capacitor includes: providing an oxidant dopant agent for preparing the conductive polymer including: ferric naphthalenesulfonate; and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of phosphate, phosphite, borate, thiophosphate, and dithiophosphate. The method also includes preparing a conductive polymer by using the oxidant dopant agent to obtain an electrolyte comprising the conductive polymer.

Claims (21)

1. A method for preparing an electrolyte capacitor, comprising:

providing an oxidant dopant agent for preparing a conductive polymer comprising:

ferric naphthalenesulfonate; and

at least one compound selected from the group consisting of phosphate, phosphite, borate, thiophosphate, and dithiophosphate:

providing a capacitor element;

providing a monomer;

applying the monomer and the oxidant dopant agent on the capacitor element and polymerizing to obtain a conductive polymer on the capacitor element;

providing an exterior material outside the conductive polymer, wherein the conductive polymer serves as an electrolyte of the electrolyte capacitor.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising preparing another conductive polymer on the conductive polymer before providing the exterior material, wherein said another conductive polymer is formed from a dispersion liquid of a π conjugated system conductive polymer including a polymer anion as a dopant.

3. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising providing a conductive auxiliary liquid inside the electrolyte capacitor, wherein the conductive auxiliary liquid comprises:

a high boiling point organic solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or more; or

a high boiling point organic solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or more, and an aromatic compound having at least one hydroxyl group or carboxyl group.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the monomer and the oxidant dopant agent are mixed in advance, which is applied on the capacitor element to prepare the conductive polymer on the capacitor element.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the oxidant dopant agent is provided as an organic solution thereof.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the monomer is provided as an organic solution thereof,

wherein the organic solution of the monomer and the oxidant dopant agent are alternatively applied on the capacitor element to prepare the conductive polymer on the capacitor element.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the oxidant dopant agent further comprises a glycidyl group containing compound or its ring-opening compound.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the ferric naphthalenesulfonate has a molar ratio of iron to an organic sulfonic acid, wherein the molar ratio is lower than 1:3 in view of the organic sulfonic acid.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one compound is contained at an amount of 1 to 100% by mass standard with respect to the ferric naphthalenesulfonate.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the conductive polymer obtained by using the oxidant dopant agent serves as an electrolyte of an electrolyte capacitor having a leak current of 100 μA or less.

11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the conductive polymer obtained by using the oxidant dopant agent serves as an electrolyte of an electrolyte capacitor having an ESR of 30 mΩ or less.
