Conventional technology Conventionally, in order to increase the capacitance of electrolytic capacitors, the surface area of the aluminum foil that is the base material of the electrode material has been expanded by etching.

The oxide film (2) formed by coating on the surface of the roughened base material (1) has an effect of expanding the surface of the titanium film (3) formed by coating on the surface of the oxide film, thereby improving the surface expansion rate. In order to promote the above, it is required to have fine protrusions (2a) such as needles or scales. A preferred example of such an oxide film (2) is a boehmite film. This boehmite film is an oxide film formed by the boehmite method, that is, a method of immersing the substrate (1) in high temperature pure water or a high temperature solution containing a small amount of ammonia, triethanolamine or the like. Of course, the oxide film is not limited to the boehmite film, and it is possible to use fine protrusions (2

The material of the conductive metal film (3) formed on the surface of the oxide film (2) is not particularly limited, but for example, Ti, Cr, Ag, Sn, Co, Zr, Ta, Si, Cu, Fe,
Nb or alloys thereof are used. The thickness of the conductive metal film (3) is preferably in the range of 0.1 to 5 μm. If it is less than 0.1 μm, it may not be possible to obtain a sufficient surface-expanding effect. Conversely, if it exceeds 5 μm, the surface-expanding effect is sufficient to increase the amount of titanium used, increase costs, and deteriorate workability. This is because there is a risk that the As a method for forming a coating on the oxide film surface of such a conductive metal film, a vacuum deposition method, an inert gas deposition method, a sputtering method, or the like can be used. Here, with respect to the type of the conductive metal and the method for forming the metal film described above, it is possible to arbitrarily select and combine them, and particularly titanium as a conductive metal is used in an inert gas atmosphere such as Ar. It is preferable to use a vapor-deposited film vapor-deposited therein because it has excellent durability and, in turn, can realize a long life of the capacitor and high reliability. In this case, further, if the oxide film (2) is a boehmite film, the precipitated titanium particles have a small mobility and solidify without much movement on the film surface. Therefore, the titanium film can be grown along the fine irregular surface of the boehmite film, and the surface expansion rate can be further increased. Here, the pressure in the inert gas for vapor deposition of titanium is 1 × 10 −5.
It is preferably in the range of up to 1 × 10 -3 Torr. This is because if the pressure is less than the lower limit value, the film may be smoothed and the electrostatic capacity may become small. On the other hand, if the pressure exceeds the upper limit value, titanium is less likely to be vapor-deposited and the film becomes soot-like. This is because there is a risk that the adhesion will deteriorate. The vapor deposition distance between the vaporization source and the substrate during vapor deposition of titanium, the vapor deposition rate, and the like may be appropriately selected in relation to the atmospheric pressure, the film thickness, and the like.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION As described above, the electrode material according to the present invention is such that the surface of the roughened aluminum foil substrate is first coated with an oxide film having fine protrusions such as needles and scales. As a result of the conductive metal film being formed on the surface of the oxide film, the uneven condition due to the roughening of the base material and the fine uneven condition of the oxide film are simultaneously exposed on the surface of the metal film. In addition, the surface of the metal film can be made to be extremely rough, and the surface expansion ratio can be remarkably improved to provide a large capacitance.
