Supply is tight and some of the aluminum capacitance is extended to two months

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors and multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC), tantalum capacitor and as a passive yuan JianCi industry of three out of stock, and has been out of stock until this year, since the second half of last year are still in a state of tight supply, temporarily not seen signs of ease.

For aluminum electrolytic capacitor, due to their exit unprofitable specific markets such as personal computers, cause a shortage of aluminum electrolytic capacitor products since the second half of last year, the first three months of this year and the yuan rise quickly, exchange rate environment is bad, day factory early in the first three months of this year to reflect the cost to the client.

Aluminum electrolytic capacitor products factory on the day when all the way out of stock, now and into the traditional peak season, shortage of no signs of easing, specific product delivery for over two months, also cause some orders to factory, out of stock situation with spread to Taiwan factory products.

Combined with the recent rise of raw materials, the aluminum electrolytic capacitor factory in Taiwan is also getting more and more expensive.
Aluminum plant is pointed out that since the supply of aluminum electrolytic capacitor nervous, delivery within two months above, coupled with the recent aluminum foil, aluminum shell, needle and so on the raw material of aluminum electrolytic capacitor shout up double digits, the material of aluminum capacitor proportion is as high as seventy percent, forcing Taiwan series aluminum electrolytic capacitor factory making this month to raise prices to the customer, to reflect the cost.
Under cost pressures, it does have to reflect costs to clients.

It is understood that lilong has been fine-tuning the price for specific customers and specific products this season, and the price of the fourth season is still under way.
The company stresses that maintaining customer relationships is still the most important thing, rather than raising prices.
'it's true that some of the products are tight and the cost pressures are high,' he said. 'we're going to try to get the cost to the client.'
Lilong, zhibao, kaimei, jinshan power and other Taiwanese companies have said that they are still negotiating with customers and will try to raise prices for customers because the price of the negotiation is continuing, which can't comment on the increase for the time being.
It is understood that some customers have accepted the raise, with a gain of at least 3% to more than 5%.
The manufacturer pointed out that although the price range may not be able to reach all customers, but at least there is no room for falling price, so the overall ASP performance will still go up.

Current situation of aluminum electrolytic capacitor market

Capacitor is one of the widely used electronic components in electronic equipment, according to different capacitor manufacturing material, concrete can be divided into: aluminum electrolytic capacitors, ceramic capacitors, tantalum capacitors, film capacitors, etc.
Aluminum electrolytic capacitors accounted for 34% of the market, ranking second.


The aluminum electrolytic capacitor is made of a negative electrode from an aluminum cylinder and loaded into a liquid electrolyte, then inserted in a curved aluminum foil to make a positive electrode.
Aluminum foil also needs to be processed by dc voltage to form a layer of oxide film.
Because the anode aluminum foil can increase its surface area by several times to hundreds of times, the capacitance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors can be several times larger than that of other capacitors.

The advantages of aluminum electrolytic capacitor are the high rated capacitance and the price of the friendly people, but there are problems such as leakage and stability, which can be used in the power filter or low frequency circuit.
Product has been widely used in consumer electronics, computer and peripheral products, instrumentation, automation control, automobile industry, optoelectronic products, communications products, high speed railway and aviation and military equipment etc.

Aluminum electrolytic capacitor application domain proportion
The aluminum electrolytic capacitor industry is still supplied by Japanese manufacturer Nippon chemical on.
Especially in the high-end product supply side, Japanese enterprises have a strong say.
In 2015 NCC, Nichicon, Rubycon and Panasonic made up 56 percent of the global market for aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
The Chinese giants zhibao, kaimei, and lilong, kingsoft power and other Taiwan manufacturers are trying to catch up.

China is the world's biggest consumer of aluminum electrolytic capacitors, but in contrast is the overall level of domestic aluminum electrolytic capacitor industry still is given priority to with cheap products, in terms of high-end aluminum electrolytic capacitor, still mainly rely on import products in Japan.
The domestic large aluminum electrolytic capacitor manufacturers have aihua group, nantong jianghai and so on.

In 2015, the global market share distribution of aluminum electrolytic capacitors
