What is the difference between polyester film capacitors and ceramic capacitors?

Answer:

The frequency characteristics of the capacitor is better than the polyester, the capacitance and tgδ with the frequency of small changes can be used in low-voltage AC-DC circuit.
Polyester capacitor medium for the polyester film, its capacity and pressure range, small size, large capacity, high temperature, low cost. But tgδ with the frequency changes, it is used for tgδ, stability and loss requirements are not high occasions, such as DC and pulsating circuit.
Different components of the ceramic, its dielectric constant and temperature coefficient is different, the temperature coefficient range is wide, easy to make different temperature coefficient of the capacitor, used as a temperature compensation capacitor.
Good stability. From the chemical performance, acid, alkali, salt and water corrosion of ceramic materials is very small, from the heat resistance, the ceramic material in the high temperature of up to 500 ~ 600 ℃, long-term work without aging
Ceramic dielectric (type CC) ceramic material dielectric constant ε is very large, so the capacitor volume can be made very small.
