Polysulfate
Berkeley Lab researchers have developed a class of polymer-based capacitors that remain stable at high temperatures. Polysulfates and polysulfonates exhibit high dielectric constants ranging from 3.4 to 3.8 and high dielectric breakdown strengths greater than 600 MV/m, making them especially suited for use in high energy density electrostatic ...

Film capacitor
Film capacitors are made out of two pieces of plastic film covered with metallic electrodes, wound into a cylindrical shaped winding, with terminals attached, and then encapsulated. In general, film capacitors are not polarized, so the two terminals are interchangeable. There are two different types of plastic film capacitors, made with two different electrode configurations:

Radiation response and electrical properties of polymer
Sandia National Laboratories is currently interested in the development of a polymer film capacitor that is tolerant to radiation. The capacitors are to be utilized in a high voltage-plus discharge application. Radiation response data at high dose/dose rate levels are presented for polyvinylidene fluoride (PVF/sub 2/), polysulfone, and Mylar.
