Plastic film capacitors are generally subdivided into film/foil capacitors and metalized film capacitors. Film / foil capacitors basically consist of two metal foil electrodes that are separated by an insulating plastic film also called dielectric. The terminals are connected to the end-faces of the electrodes by means of welding or soldering.
Especially for applications with high current pulse loads or high AC loads in electrical systems, heavy-duty film capacitors, here called "power capacitors", are available with dielectric ratings of several kilovolts. But the manufacture of film capacitors does have a critical dependency on the materials supply chain.
The actual capacitance of film capacitors depends on the measuring frequency and the ambient temperature. Standardized conditions for film capacitors are a measuring frequency of 1 kHz and a temperature of 20 °C. The percentage of allowed deviation of the capacitance from the rated value is called capacitance tolerance.
Film/foil capacitors or metal foil capacitors are made with two plastic films as the dielectric. Each is layered with a thin metal foil, usually aluminum, as the electrodes. Advantages of this construction type are easy electrical connection to the metal foil electrodes, and its ability to handle high current surges.
Metallized film capacitors are made of two metallized films with plastic film as the dielectric. A very thin (~ 0.03 μm ) vacuum-deposited aluminum metallization is applied to one or both sides to serve as electrodes.
Polycarbonate film capacitors are film capacitors with a dielectric made of the polymerized esters of carbonic acid and dihydric alcohols polycarbonate (PC), sometimes given the trademarked name Makrofol. They are manufactured as wound metallized as well as film/foil types.
