What is a Capacitor?
• Take two electrical conductors and separate them with an insulator and you make a capacitor: something that can store electrical energy. Adding electrical energy to a capacitor is called charging; releasing the energy from a capacitor is known as discharging.
• A capacitor is a bit like a battery, but it has a different job to do. A battery uses chemicals to store electrical energy and release it very slowly through a circuit. A capacitor generally releases its energy much more rapidly - often in seconds or less. If you're taking a flash photograph, for example, you need your camera to produce a huge burst of light in a fraction of a second. A capacitor attached to the flash gun charges up for a few seconds using energy from your camera's batteries. Once the capacitor is fully charged, it can release all that energy in an instant through the flash bulb.
• Capacitors come in all shapes and sizes, but they usually have the same basic components. There are the two conductors (known as plates, largely for historic reasons) and there's the insulator in between them (called the dielectric). The two plates inside a capacitor are wired to two electrical connections on the outside called terminals, which are like thin metal legs you can hook into an electric circuit.

Polypropylene Capacitors
Polypropylene capacitors are capacitors that have a dielectric that is made of polypropylene film.
• Polypropylene capacitors cover the value range of 100pf to 10µF. One of their main and key features is their high working voltage. Polypropylene types with working voltages up to 3000V are made. These features make polypropylene capacitors useful in circuits in which operating voltages are typically high. These include power supply circuits, power amplifiers, particularly valve amplifiers and TV circuits. Another great advantage of polypropylene capacitors are their great tolerance values. Tolerance is about 1 percent, so it's pretty precisely near their nominal values. Polypropylene capacitors are used when a better tolerance is needed than what a polyester capacitor can provide. Polypropylene capacitors also have high isolation resistance, which makes them a good choice for coupling and/or storage applications. They exhibit stable capacitance for frequencies below 100KHz.
• These capacitors are used for noise suppression, blocking, bypassing, coupling, filtering, timing, and handling pulses.
