Abstract

Abstract An electrolyte solution for use in an electrolytic capacitor comprises as a solute at least one quaternary ammonium salt of a carboxylic acid which selected from 5-40 wt % of (a) maleic acid and/or citraconic acid or (b) 7-30 aromatic carboxylic acid or (c) 1-40 wt % of a branched-­chain aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, in (c) the salt has 11-­30 C atoms.The electrolyte solution has high electrical conduc­tivity when used e.g. with Al foil electrodes.The solvent is aprotic, preferably an amide or lactone.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 69 words
An electrolyte solution for use in an electrolytic capacitor, said solution comprising as a solute at least one quaternary ammonium salt of a carboxylic acid character­ised in that the acid in said salt is selected from (a) at least one of maleic acid and citraconic acid, (b) aromatic carboxylic acids, and (c) branched-chain aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, in which case the salt has 11 to 30 carbon atoms in total.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 69 words
An electrolyte solution for use in an electrolytic capacitor, said solution comprising as a solute at least one quaternary ammonium salt of a carboxylic acid character­ised in that the acid in said salt is selected from (a) at least one of maleic acid and citraconic acid, (b) aromatic carboxylic acids, and (c) branched-chain aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, in which case the salt has 11 to 30 carbon atoms in total.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
An electrolyte solution as claimed in Claim 1, which includes a solvent composed mainly of aprotic solvent to dissolve the solute.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
An electrolyte solution as claimed in Claim 2, wherein a solvent composed mainly of gammabutyrolactone is used to dissolve the solute.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
An electrolyte solution as claimed in Claim 1, 2 or 3, wherein at least one of (a) and (b) is used as the solute.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 22 words
An electrolyte solution as claimed in Claim 1, 2 or 3, wherein at least one of (c) is used as the solute.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 24 words
An electrolyte solution as claimed in Claim 4, wherein the concentration of the solute is in the range of 5 to 40% by weight.
