Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
18 words
A capacitor as in claim 1, in which the depolarizing substance contained in said insulating oil is p-nitro-benzoeacid-ethylester.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
93 words
A method of manufacturing an electrolytic capacitor comprising the steps of winding at least one strip of pre-formed metal and a porous spacer strip to produce a convolutely wound assembly, impregnating said assembly with an electrolyte containing a depolarizing substance, applying a voltage higher than the intended maximum operating voltage between said metal strip and said electrolyte to post-form said metal strip, and impregnating said Assembly with an insulating oil which is not capable of solving components of said electrolyte and which contains a depolarizing substance different from that contained in said electrolyte.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
18 words
A method as in claim 3, in which the depolarizing substance contained in said insulating oil is p-nitro-benzoeacid-ethylester.
