Aging is distinguished between the following changes in the capacitor performance: Change in capacitance, ESR and leakage current during operation (with voltage applied) and reduction of dielectric strength due to degradation of the dielectric (no voltage applied).
Since the development and production of electrolytic capacitors, designers have had to deal with the issues of aging and shelf life of these products. Electrolytic capacitors have been around for a very long time, but the rapid increase did not occur until the 1960s.
The higher the temperature, the quicker the capacitor decay rate in the early ageing stage of a supercapacitor. This results in a larger capacitance decay amplitude and a lower capacitance value in the late aging stage. Based on the analysis of the supercapacitor ageing curve, these are the observed effects.
Capacitance increase and loss can be taken into account. Under steady voltage and temperature stresses, capacitance can be considered as a reliable aging indicator since in such conditions, metallized polymer film capacitors suffer from the gradual loss of their electrode surface.
A total of 47 capacitors under test are used for this accelerated aging study. Measurements using an impedancemeter are done periodically during the accelerated aging test to characterize the frequency response of the capacitor’s impedance.
Under high temperature and voltage test conditions, capacitance degradation can be considered as a reliable aging parameter since under such stresses, MPF capacitors suffer from the gradual loss of their electrode surface due to self-healing events.
