ion

Electronic components; Capacitors

An electrical portion of matter of sub-atomic, atomic, or molecular dimensions such as is formed when a molecule of gas loses an electron (when the gas is stressed electrically ...

ion exchange resins

Electronic components; Capacitors

Small granular or bead-like particles containing acidic or basic groups, which will trade ions with salts in solutions.

insulator

Electronic components; Capacitors

A material of such low electrical conductivity that the flow of current through it can usually be neglected.

internal fuse

Electronic components; Capacitors

A device that disconnects capacitor operation from power distribution system in the event of excessive current.

surface resistivity

Electronic components; Capacitors

The resistance of a material between two opposite sides of a unit square of its surface. Surface resistivity may vary widely with the conditions of measurement.
