Aluminum - Polymer Capacitors

Aluminum - polymer capacitors are unique electric components that are used in a variety of applications. They are based on an aluminum electrolyte that is created when an anodized aluminum foil is encapsulated in a polymer film. This material is also called a ‘Polymer Aluminum Capacitor’ or ‘PAP’.

The 875116152001 aluminum-polymer capacitor provides reliable electrical characteristics in a wide range of applications. It is ideal for use in automotive, computing, telecommunications, and industrial applications. This capacitor type is characterized by low profile construction, low ESR, a wide temperature range, and good self-healing characteristics.

Working Principle

Capacitors are used for energy storage and as a means of storing energy and releasing it again when needed. The 875116152001 aluminum-polymer capacitor works as a conventional capacitor with a charge equal to the capacitance of the device. It works by storing and releasing energy as an electric field, in the form of an electric charge by an electrical process called dielectric polarization. Similarly, the capacitor can also be discharged by providing mechanism that direct the electric potential to ground.

The electric double layer formed at the junction between the anode and the electrolyte helps to provide the capacitor with high performance. This junction helps to reduce the overall and effective series resistance, allowing the 875116152001 capacitor to have high capacitance with relatively low leakage current.
