Description

Durch das Hauptpatent 756216 ist ein elektrolytisches Verfahren zum Aufrauhen der Oberfläche einer Elektrode, insbesondere für elektrolytische Kondensatoren, unter Schutz gestellt, das dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß Salz- und Säuregemische oder Salzgemische angewendet werden, die das Elektrodenmetall im stromlosen Zustand der Ätzanlage gar nicht oder nur schwach angreifen. Bei diesem Verfahren kann insbesondere die aufzurauhende Elektrode an den Pluspol gelegt werden.The main patent 756216 is an electrolytic Process for roughening the surface of an electrode, especially for electrolytic Capacitors, placed under protection, which is characterized in that salt and acid mixtures or salt mixtures are used, which the electrode metal in the currentless state of the etching system Do not attack at all or only weakly. With this method, in particular the Electrode to be placed on the positive pole.

Es ist nun festgestellt worden, daß in der Nähe der Kathode Rückstände auftreten, die bei Verwendung von Aluminium meistens aus Aluminiumhydroxyd bestehen. Diese Rückstände bilden sich besonders dann aus, wenn der pH-Wert der Lösung einen Wert über 7 annimmt. Um den notwendigen Säuregrad zu erreichen, war es daher erforderlich, im Laufe des Verfahrens der Ätzlösung Säure, z. B. Salzsäure, zuzugeben.It has now been found that residues occur in the vicinity of the cathode which, when aluminum is used, mostly consist of aluminum hydroxide. These residues are formed from especially when the pH value assumes a value more than 7 of the solution. In order to achieve the necessary degree of acidity, it was therefore necessary in the course of the process of the etching solution acid, e.g. B. hydrochloric acid to add.

Um diesen Übelstand zu vermeiden, wird nun gemäß der Erfindung das Ätzbad in an sich bekannter Weise durch ein 'Diaphragma in einen Kathoden- und einen Anodenraum getrennt. Als Diaphragma eignet sich insbesondere ein Stoff aus Textilien, wie Makogewebe o. ä., Keramik, Zello- as phan, tierischen Häuten, Gelatine od. dgl.In order to avoid this inconvenience, the etching bath is now known per se according to the invention Way separated by a 'diaphragm into a cathode and an anode compartment. as A material made of textiles, such as maco fabric or the like, ceramics, cellosis, is particularly suitable for the diaphragm phan, animal skins, gelatin or the like.

Bei der Verwendung eines Diaphragmas ergibt es sich, daß die Ätzmittel im Anodenraum sauber bleiben, da die Rückstände selbst im Kathodenraum aufgefangen werden. Dadurch sind Einsparungen an Badflüssigkeit erreicht, denn bei dem Brauchbarwerden der Füllung ist nur die Auswechslung des Kathodenraumes nötig.When using a diaphragm, the result is that the etchant in the anode compartment is clean stay, as the residues are caught in the cathode compartment. This results in savings reached in bath liquid, because when the filling becomes usable, only the replacement is necessary of the cathode compartment is necessary.

Als Ätzmittel für die elektrolytische Ätzung mit dazwischengeschaltetem Diaphragma eignen sich Halogenverbindungen, wie Aluminiumchlorid, Natriumchlorid, Kaliumbromid, Kaliumchlorat od. dgl., allein oder im Gemisch mit Säuren, z. B. mit Salzsäure. Derartige Ätzmittel sind im Hauptpatent 756216 in genaueren Zusammensetzungen angegeben.Suitable etching agents for electrolytic etching with an interposed diaphragm are suitable Halogen compounds such as aluminum chloride, sodium chloride, potassium bromide, potassium chlorate Od. Like., Alone or in a mixture with acids, z. B. with hydrochloric acid. Such etchants are in the main patent 756216 given in more precise compositions.
