GORE® High Temperature Capacitor Film
Our unique film offers more capacitor reliability at higher temperatures over extended periods in power electronics for less failures, maintenance and costs.
Innovative Capacitor Film Technology
GORE® High Temperature Film withstands higher power loads and delivers stable voltage and capacitance with minimal loss in power electronics. Unmatched by conventional films, our capacitor film technology increases power density and reduces failures at elevated temperatures for longer application life and less overall costs.
Aerospace & Defense
Unlike conventional films, like polypropylene (BOPP), GORE High Temperature Film in capacitors meets demanding mission profiles with features and benefits like:
- withstands elevated temperatures, power spikes, shock and vibration
- increases system power density with low-dielectric loss
- enables stable, reliable capacitance over longer periods without failure
- reduces or eliminates system cooling requirements
- extends system longevity and lowers maintenance costs
- simplifies system design and integration with minimal de-rating
- allows for fewer components combined in a series-parallel connection
Oil & Gas
For downhole drilling operations, capacitors featuring our unique high temperature film offer the following features and benefits over a multi-layer ceramic capacitor (MLCC):
- increased tool reliability and reduced risk of unexpected failures
- resistant to higher temperatures, voltage spikes, shock and vibration
- stable, predictable capacitance with minimal loss for extended term
- reduced overall electrical stress on other components
- simplified system design and installation with minimal de-rating
