Process for forming an electrolytic capacitor having a higher cap recovery and lower ESR

A process for forming an electrolytic capacitor comprising:

• providing an anode comprising a dielectric thereon wherein said anode comprises a sintered powder wherein said powder has a powder charge of at least 45,000 μFV/g;
• and
• forming a first conductive polymer layer encasing at least a portion of said dielectric by applying a first slurry wherein said first slurry comprises a first polyanion and a conductive polymer and wherein said polyanion and said conductive polymer are in a first weight ratio of greater than 3 wherein said conductive polymer and said first polyanion forms conductive particles with an average particle size of no more than 20 nm further comprising forming a second conductive polymer layer on said first conductive polymer layer wherein the second conductive polymer layer comprises applying a second slurry wherein said second slurry comprises a second polyanion and a second conductive polymer wherein said second polyanion and said second conductive polymer are in a weight ratio of less than 3.
