Abstract :
The five granulation PTFE material described in this paper exhibits dielectric strength values at least twice as high as those of the general purpose pelletized PTFE. When this high-electric-strength material is combined with the technology of electroplating PTFE, high-voltage capacitors of superior electrical characteristics can be designed. An example of such a design was discussed, involving stacked-disk low-inductance capacitor banks which have characteristics surpassing those of vacuum units of similar electrical ratings.
