Electric properties stability of NbO anode for new electrolytic capacitor

By using loading test and high temperature test, the electric-property stability of NbO anode and metal Nb anode werestudied in comparison. The reason for higher stability of NbO anode was analyzed by thermodynamics and kinetics. The loading teswas performed in 38% H2SO4 at 85 ℃ and 12 V for 10 d. The high temperature test was carried out at 250 ℃ in air atmosphere fo30 h. It is found that the NbO anode possesses higher ability to restrain crystallization film as compared with metal Nb anode. It isconsidered that, oxygen in NbO anode matrix restrains the migration of oxygen in Nb2O5 anodic oxidation film to matrix, and resultsin that the anodic oxidation film has higher stability.
