Abstract
Formed porous tantalum pellets each having an extending anode wire are lowered part way into a molten compound such as napthalene. The napthalene wicks its way into substantially all of the pellet pores. Upon removal from the bath the napthalene freezes within each pellet. A liquid insulating material is applied to the anode wire while being masked from entering the porous pellet by the napthalene. The napthalene is subsequently vaporized from the pores and thereafter manganous nitrate is introduced into the pellet and is pyrolyzed to form MnO.sub.2.
