Electrolytic capacitors are passive electronic components that store electrical energy temporarily.

They are typically used in electronic circuits to smooth out pulsating DC voltage and store energy for short periods.

Electrolytic capacitors consist of two electrodes immersed in an electrolyte solution, which acts as the capacitor's dielectric.

The most common type of electrolytic capacitor is the aluminum electrolytic capacitor, which uses aluminum foil as the positive electrode and an aluminum oxide film as the dielectric.
