Inhalt:
Polypropylene is the polymer of choice for most film capacitors, but there is an inherent high temperature limit for its usage. New polymer materials are therefore required to overcome these temperature limitations. Accordingly, a new class of engineering materials, EPN (Ethylene-Propylene-Norbornene), has been developed for capacitor films, combining the advantages of polypropylene and cyclic olefin copolymers. This new material class can represent a breakthrough on the design of film capacitors for high temperatures.
