dispersion

Electronic components; Capacitors

Finely divided particles in suspension in another substance.

displacement current

Electronic components; Capacitors

A current which exists in addition to ordinary conduction current in ACcircuits. It is proportional to the rate of change of the electric field.

temperature coefficient

Electronic components; Capacitors

The change in capacitance with temperature expressed linearly as parts per million per degree centigrade (PPM/°C), or as a percent change over a specified temperature range. Most ...

tensile strength

Electronic components; Capacitors

The pulling stress required to break a given specimen.

thermal conductivity

Electronic components; Capacitors

Ability of a material to conduct heat.

thermal endurance

Electronic components; Capacitors

The time at a selected temperature for an insulating material or system of materials to deteriorate to some predetermined level of electrical, mechanical, or chemical performance ...

thermal expansion

Electronic components; Capacitors

The fractional change in length (sometimes volume) of a material for a unit change in temperature.
