Specifically, this type of tantalum capacitor is manufactured by KEMET Electronics Corporation and utilizes Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiolphene) (PEDOT) as the cathode material. There are two capacitor varieties based on the polymerization method used for the PEDOT. One uses In-Situ polymerization, and the other uses Pre-Polymerization.

For the in-situ polymer, the porous pellet is dipped in a monomer solution, then an oxidizing solution to enable polymerization to take place on the exposed surfaces to dielectric. For the polymer slurry, the polymer is prepared in a solution and dipping in the solution and drying leaves a polymer film on the exposed dielectric surfaces.

Abstract Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), an excellent conductive polymer, has made great progress in the preparation process and doping modification, while the research on the reaction mechanism is relatively inadequate. Herein, PEDOT films with different reaction time were prepared by vapor phase polymerization to summarize the mechanisms of

dispersions for capacitor applications allows for a direct deposition of the conductive polymers without any chemical in-situ reaction (Fig. 2). Thus, the manufacturing process of polymer capacitors is simplified significantly: instead of controlling chemical reactions in millions of small devices, a simple dip and dry coating process is applied.
New polymer materials are therefore required to overcome these temperature limitations. Accordingly, a new class of engineering materials, EPN (Ethylene-Propylene-Norbornene), has been developed for capacitor films, combining the advantages of polypropylene and cyclic olefin copolymers.
The rated voltage range of polymer capacitors has been extended from maximum of about 25 V to 400 V . In combination with a superior DCL performance, the new polymer capacitors have been introduced in high reliability applications such as automotive and space [3,4].
This would further expand the application of polymer Ta capacitors in automotive and other markets where a harsh operating environment is of concern. The authors acknowledge the great contribution and cooperation of KEMET R&D and Technical Marketing team members across multiple locations.
Over the history of film capacitors, from a material perspective, the major breakthrough started with the move from paper to polymers, and especially to polypropylene, which finally became the dominant dielectric in film capacitors today.
Amongst all of the AEC-Q200 requirements, the most challenging one for polymer tantalum capacitors with traditional technology is the highly accelerated test under 85°C / 85% relative humidity (RH) with DC bias up to rated voltage for 1000 hours.
The conductive polymer as an organic material is the most sensitive part of the capacitor when exposed to high temperature or harsh conditions like 85°C/85%RH. The sheet resistance of films made from conductive polymer dispersions exhibit an extremely better stability at high temperature or 85°C/85%RH compared to in-situ polymerized films (Fig. 4).
