Why is there electrolyte soaked paper in an electrolytic capacitor?
In an electrolytic capacitor, the oxide layer forms only between the positive plate and the electrolyte. It can be super-thin, even with 1930''s manufacturing techniques, because it is formed chemically rather than mechanically. It is the thinness of this layer that gives ...

Thanks for the help everyone, I ended up manually making the spreadsheet, with capacitors ranging from 7.5 to 82g and 16mm to 40mm diameter.Basically the higher voltage the better, within a capacitor family. Some capacitor families go up to 550V, but the most ...
Can two electrolytic capacitors be made into a bipolar?
Using two electrolytic capacitors of identical value back to back is routinely used to get a non-polarized capacitor. From this document : If two, same-value, aluminum electrolytic capacitors are connected in series, back-to-back with the positive terminals or the negative terminals connected, the resulting single capacitor is a non-polar capacitor with half the capacitance to either of the ...
