Abstract

Abstract This invention is directed to a semi-solid electrolytic capacitor and a method for fabricating the same. The semi-solid electrolytic capacitor comprises an anode electrode having an oxide film thereon, a cathode electrode and a semi-solid electrolyte intervening between the anode electrode and the cathode electrode and acting both as an electrolyte and a spacer. The anode electrode is substantially surrounded on both sides thereof by the cathode electrode and is spaced therefrom. The method comprises assembling an anode electrode and a cathode electrode, immersing the electrodes in an electrolyte comprising an ionogen, an organic solvent and a cross-linkable polyamide resin, and heating the electrolyte at a temperature of from 80* to 120*C for 0.5 to 1 hour to form a semi-solid electrolytic capacitor.
