Development of high melting point TCNQ complex salts and aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor with these salts

Accelerated Ageing of Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

Electrolytic capacitors are extensively used in filtering and power decoupling in power electronic converters. Low cost and high energy density of these capacitors make them popular. However, these capacitors degrade with age due to heating and evaporation of electrolyte. This process may take about 2 to 7 years depending on the application, ambient conditions and capacitor construction. This p...

Online Failure Prediction of the Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor

The aim of this research is to present a simple online condition monitoring system to predict failure of the aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the output LC filter of the switched mode DC–DC buck converters. Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) is the best indicator of the failure of the aluminium electrolytic capacitors. The main idea of the proposed method is to monitor the ESR value and...

Electrolytic Reduction: Modification of Proteins Occurring in Isoelectric Focusing Electrophoresis and in Electrolytic Reactions in the Presence of High Salts

Artifacts in two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) caused by the presence of salts in isoelectric focusing (IEF) have been previously described as a result of increasing conductivity and inducing electroosmosis. However, electrolysis induced by the presence of salts should not be disregarded. In this study, electrolytic reduction-oxidation reaction (redox) was found to be enhanced in the prese...

Occupational exposure to nickel salts in electrolytic plating.

An occupational hygiene survey was made in 38 nickel plating shops in Finland and exposure to nickel was studied by means of biological measurements and, in three shops, by using air measurements. The average after-shift urinary nickel concentration of 163 workers was 0.16 mumol l.-1 (range 0.001-4.99 mumol l.-1). After the 1-5 week vacation the urinary nickel concentration was higher than the ...
