Abstract

A composition for an electrolytic capacitor and an electrolytic capacitor including the composition is provided. The composition includes an intrinsically conductive polymer and an electrolyte solution. The electrolyte solution includes an organic solvent, an ionic salt compound and a succinimide-based compound.

Claims (18)

1 . A composition for an electrolytic capacitor, comprising:

an intrinsically conductive polymer, and

an electrolyte solution comprising an organic solvent, an ionic salt compound, and a succinimide-based compound.

2 . The composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein based on 100 parts by weight of the ionic salt compound, the succinimide-based compound of 1 to 300 parts by weight is contained in the electrolyte solution.

3 . The composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein based on 100 parts by weight of the ionic salt compound, the succinimide-based compound of 1 to 200 parts by weight is contained in the electrolyte solution.

4 . The composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein the succinimide-based compound is N-hydroxysuccinimide or succinimide.

5 . The composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein the intrinsically conductive polymer comprises polyaniline, polypyrrole, polythiophene, poly(p-phenylene vinylene), polyphenylene sulfide, a derivative thereof, or a combination thereof.

6 . The composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein the intrinsically conductive polymer is an intrinsically conductive polymer in a doped state.

7 . The composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 6 , wherein the intrinsically conductive polymer in the doped state is poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(p-styrenesulfonic acid) (PEDOT:PSS) or a derivative thereof.

8 . The composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein the ionic salt compound comprises anions and cations, wherein the anions comprise carboxylate ion, phosphate ion, or borate ion, and the cations comprise ammonium or amidinium.

9 . The composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 8 , wherein the cation is 1,2,3,4-tetramethylimidazolinium or tripropylammonium, and the anion is phthalate monoanion.

10 . The composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 , wherein the solvent comprises γ-butyrolactone, sulfolane, or a combination thereof.

11 . An electrolytic capacitor, comprising:

a positive electrode;

a dielectric layer disposed on the positive electrode;

a negative electrode; and

an electrolyte located between the dielectric layer and the negative electrode,

wherein the electrolyte comprises the composition for the electrolytic capacitor according to claim 1 .
