In particular, the bigger the capacitance density, the lower the rated voltage. Film foil capacitors made of dielectric films between two plain aluminium foils. These capacitors can sustain very high currents. Metallized film capacitors, which are made with dielectric films with a metallic coating on the surface.
Metallized film capacitor; failure mode; lifetime. Electrolytic capacitors characterized by very big capacitance per volume unit, but with low rated voltages and very important power losses due to the ionic conductivity. In particular, the bigger the capacitance density, the lower the rated voltage.
Aluminum electrolytics have much higher capacitance per volume. Film capacitors have lower ESRs and similar ESLs. Though films have lower specific ESR, the voltage withstanding capability of polypropylene dielectric is more severely limited at temperatures above 85 oC than is the electrolytic dielectric.
The following table summarizes main characteristics of film capacitors as a function of the dielectric material. Cap. Range Cap. Range Table I. Film capacitor dielectric cm material vs. properties . c) Electrolytic Capacitors. The dielectric is an oxidized layer in the anode. The cathode/negative layer is an electrolyte.
Most of the metallized film capacitors fail because the capacitance drops below the required tolerance. This normally occurs after the expected lifetime given by the manufacturer. The capacitance drop is generally accompanied by an increase of the loss factor.
The electric-field stess in metallized film capacitors may be much larger than in film foil capacitors. This is obtained thanks to the ability of the electrodes to self-heal. If a breakdown occurs in the polymer, the current will increase through the defect and on the electrode near the defect.
