Description

  The present invention relates to a solid electrolytic capacitor used in various electronic devices.

  With the recent digitization of electronic devices, there is an increasing demand for a solid electrolytic capacitor used therein having a low equivalent series resistance (hereinafter referred to as ESR) in a high frequency region.

  Conventionally, this type of solid electrolytic capacitor has a configuration as shown in FIGS.

  14A and 14B are a front sectional view and a side sectional view (A-A sectional view) showing a configuration of a conventional solid electrolytic capacitor. FIG. 15 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of the capacitor element in the solid electrolytic capacitor.

  In FIG. 15, reference numeral 61 denotes a plate-like anode body made of a valve action metal such as tantalum, aluminum, niobium or titanium.

  The anode body 61 is provided with an insulator layer 63 that separates the anode lead portion 62 made of a valve metal, and has a dielectric oxide film 64 on the surface of the other anode body 61 that is separated from the anode lead portion 62. On the surface of the body oxide film 64, a solid electrolyte layer 65 made of a conductive polymer, a carbon layer 66, and a cathode layer 68 made of a silver paste layer 67 are sequentially formed to form a capacitor element 69.

  As shown in FIG. 14, a plurality of capacitor elements 69 are stacked, an anode part 70 in which the anode lead part 62 of the capacitor element 69 is joined by welding, and a cathode layer via a conductive adhesive layer 71 of the capacitor element 69. And a cathode portion 72 joined with 68.

  For the conductive adhesive layer 71, a paste-like conductive adhesive composed of a mixture of silver powder, an organic binder and an organic solvent is quantitatively applied onto the laminated surface of the cathode layer 68, and a capacitor element 69 is laminated and pressed. This conductive adhesive is spread between the cathode layers 68 and cured by heating.

  76 is a cavity formed at the interface between the cathode layer 68 and the conductive adhesive layer 71 due to gasification of the organic solvent during the heat curing of the conductive adhesive, and 77 is when the conductive adhesive is spread between the cathode layers 68. This is a portion that is not formed between the cathode layers 68 because the application amount of the conductive adhesive is small.

  The anode part 70 of the laminate of the capacitor element 69 is connected to the anode terminal 73 by resistance welding, the cathode part 72 is connected to the cathode terminal 75 using the conductive paste 74, and the entire laminate of the capacitor element 69 is packaged. A solid electrolytic capacitor is formed by coating with a resin layer 78.

As such a conventional technique, for example, one described in Patent Document 1 is known.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-145115

  However, in the conventional solid electrolytic capacitor, the cathode layer 68 of the capacitor element 69 laminated through the conductive adhesive layer 71 made of heat-cured paste-like conductive adhesive is joined. The paste-like conductive adhesive spreads between the cathode layers 68 and it is difficult to form the conductive adhesive layer 71 with high accuracy, and the paste-like conductive adhesive is pushed out or scooped up from the cathode layer 68. In order to prevent the leakage current from being increased (including short-circuiting) by being formed up to the insulator layer 63 or the anode lead-out portion 62, a paste-like conductive adhesive is extruded in a protruding shape on the side surface of the cathode layer 68, and is used as an exterior resin. The cathode layer 68 is formed by reducing the amount of paste-like conductive adhesive applied in order to prevent moisture from entering through the layer 78 and preventing leakage current from increasing. Not necessary to reduce the bonding area between the conductive adhesive layer 71, there is a problem that can not be reduced ESR without increasing the leakage current.

  In particular, when there are a plurality of cathode layers 68, the spread of the paste-like conductive adhesive between the cathode layers 68 is different, and it becomes more difficult to form the conductor adhesive layer 71 with high accuracy, and the ESR increases. There was a problem to do.

  Further, when the paste-like conductive adhesive is heated and cured, the organic solvent is gasified and the paste-like conductive adhesive is spread or scattered, so that a void is formed at the interface between the cathode layer 68 and the conductive adhesive layer 71. As a result, the junction area between the cathode layer 68 and the conductive adhesive layer 71 is reduced to increase the ESR.

  The present invention solves such a conventional problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a solid electrolytic capacitor in which ESR is further reduced in a high frequency region.

  As described above, the solid electrolytic capacitor of the present invention has a structure in which the cathode layers of the capacitor elements laminated via the conductive sheet are joined, so that the conductive sheet is less deformed and the junction area between the cathode layers is stabilized. Therefore, the ESR can be reduced without increasing the leakage current.

  In addition, the conductive sheet can suppress gas generation as much as possible, and has almost no cavity at the interface between the cathode layer and the conductive sheet, so that the ESR can be reduced.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 20 denotes a conductive sheet. The conductive sheet 20 is prepared by first mixing a conductive filler made of flaky Ag metal having an average particle diameter of 5 μm, an epoxy binder resin, and an organic solvent. A paste-like mixture that is uniformly dispersed by a dispersing device such as a roll or ball mill is applied in a thin film to a substrate having excellent releasability, such as Teflon (registered trademark), and then subjected to an organic solvent by heat treatment. The film is made of the conductive filler and the binder resin and has a thickness of 20 μm and a volume resistivity of 0.1 × 10 ⁻⁴ Ω · cm. And processed into substantially the same shape.

The conductive sheet 20 may have a thickness of 5 μm to 50 μm and a volume resistivity of 0.05 × 10 ^{−4 to} 10.0 × 10 ⁻⁴ Ω · cm.

  In consideration of the uniform dispersion and the thickness of the conductive sheet 20, the conductive filler preferably has an average particle diameter of 20 μm or less and is preferably half or less of the thickness of the conductive sheet.

  The conductive filler content is preferably 1.0 to 20.0 times the binder resin content.

  If it is less than 1.0 times, the volume resistivity of the conductive sheet 20 to be obtained increases, which is not preferable, and if it exceeds 20.0 times, the binder resin is decreased, so that sufficient adhesive strength cannot be obtained.

  The binder resin may be phenolic, acrylic, polyimide, or the like.

  The anode part 21 is formed by laminating a plurality of capacitor elements 19 and joining the anode lead part 17 of the capacitor element 19.

It is heated and cured for 5 to 60 minutes at 0 ° C. and bonded.

  It is preferable to press and bond the cathode layer 16 of the capacitor element 19 through the conductive sheet 20 because adhesion between the conductive sheet 20 and the cathode layer 16 is increased and bonding strength is increased.

  Moreover, the cathode layers 16 may be joined by pressure-bonding the capacitor element 19 via the conductive sheet 20.

(Comparative Example 1)
In Comparative Example 1, the cathode layer is bonded via a conductive silver paste in which a conductive filler made of flaky Ag metal having an average particle diameter of 5 μm, an epoxy binder resin, and an organic solvent are mixed.

  The conductive silver paste was applied to the laminated surface of the cathode layer 16 of the capacitor element 19 of Example 1 by adjusting the coating amount so that the conductive silver paste was not extruded onto the side surface of the cathode layer, and the same number of capacitor elements 19 were laminated, The cathode layer is bonded by heating and curing at a temperature of 150 to 200 ° C. for 5 to 60 minutes, and the anode terminal and a part of the cathode terminal are respectively exposed to the laminate of the capacitor element 19.

  As is clear from Table 1, the solid electrolytic capacitor of Example 1 has an ESR value smaller than that of Comparative Example 1, and the variation is significantly smaller.

  According to the first embodiment, since the cathode layer 16 of the capacitor element 19 laminated via the conductive sheet 20 is joined, the conductive sheet 20 does not crawl up, and the cathode layer 16 is pressurized. Since the deformation is small in the loaded state, the bonding area between the cathode layers 16 can be stabilized without being pushed out to the insulator layer 18 or the anode leading portion 12 and protruding to the side surface 16b of the cathode layer 16, There is an effect that the ESR can be reduced without increasing the leakage current.

  The conductive sheet 20 is obtained by processing a film in which the organic solvent contained in the paste-like mixture is volatilized into a desired shape, and can suppress gas generation as much as possible when the cathode layer 16 is bonded. Since there is almost no cavity at the interface between the conductive sheet 20 and the conductive sheet 20, the effect of reducing the ESR is obtained.

  Further, the conductive sheet 20 is formed in substantially the same shape as the laminated surface 16a of the cathode layer 16, and is entirely covered with the laminated surface 16a of the cathode 16, thereby maximizing the bonding area on the laminated surface 16a of the cathode layer 16.
