Electrical reactance

In electrical circuits, reactance is the opposition presented to alternating current by inductance and capacitance. [1] Along with resistance, it is one of two elements of impedance; however, while both elements involve transfer of electrical energy, no dissipation of electrical energy as heat occurs in reactance; instead, the reactance stores energy until a quarter-cycle later when the

6 FAQs about [Aluminum Reactance Capacitors]

What are aluminum electrolytic capacitors?

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are (usually) polarized electrolytic capacitors whose anode electrode (+) is made of a pure aluminum foil with an etched surface. The aluminum forms a very thin insulating layer of aluminum oxide by anodization that acts as the dielectric of the capacitor.

What is the equivalent resistance of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor?

The capacitance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors changes with temperature and frequency of measurement, so the standard has been set to a frequency of 120Hz and temperature of 20oC. The equivalent circuit of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is shown below, The equivalent series resistance is also known as "ESR".

What are the characteristics of aluminum capacitors?

The essential property of a capacitor is to store electrical charge. The amount of electrical charge (Q) in the capacitor (C) is proportional to the applied voltage (U). d = thickness of the dielectric (oxide layer in aluminum capacitors) (m). Characteristics of aluminum capacitors vary with temperature, time and applied voltage.

What is the anode of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor?

The anode of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is an aluminum foil of extreme purity. The effec-tive surface area of this foil is greatly enlarged (by a factor of up to 200) by electrochemical etch-ing in order to achieve the maximum possible capacitance values.

Why do aluminum electrolytic capacitors have a small amount of hydrogen?

One reason could be the following: During the operation of an aluminum electrolytic capacitor with non-solid electrolyte, there is a small quantity of hydrogen developed in the component. Under nor-mal conditions, this gas permeates easily out of the capacitor.

Why does an aluminum electrolytic capacitor leak a lot?

When an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is stored under no load conditions for a long period of time, its leakage current tends to increase slightly. This is due to a drop in the withstand voltage of the dielectric caused by the reaction of the anode oxide layer with the electrolyte.
