Aluminum electrolytic capacitor Aluminum electrolytic capacitor Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are 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 aluminium oxide by anodization that acts as the dielectric of the capacitor. A non-solid electrolyte covers the rough surface of the oxide layer, serving in principle as the second electrode (cathode) (-) of the capacitor. A second aluminum foil called “cathode foil” contacts the electrolyte and serves as the electrical connection to the negative terminal of the capacitor. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are divided into three subfamilies
Kennedy (given name) Kennedy (given name) Kennedy is a unisex given name in the English language. The name is an Anglicised form of a masculine given name in the Irish language. According to Patrick Hanks and Flavia Hodges, the given name "Kennedy" is an Anglicised form of "Cinnéidigh", a masculine given name in the Irish language.
