Metalized Mylar Polyester Film Capacitors 100V 0.22nF–470nF

Metalized Mylar Polyester Film Capacitors — 100V, 0.22nF to 470nF

These JCCON metalized Mylar polyester film capacitors are a staple passive component for electronics engineers, hobbyists, and PCB designers. With a full range spanning 31 capacitance values from 0.22nF to 470nF at 100V DC rating, this listing covers virtually every common value needed for signal coupling, decoupling, timing, filtering, and audio crossover applications.

The metalized film construction provides self-healing properties — minor dielectric breakdowns are automatically repaired by the evaporation of the metallization layer, making these capacitors significantly more reliable than foil types in high-stress applications.

Polyester Film vs. Ceramic Capacitors

Polyester film capacitors offer significantly lower microphonic noise than ceramic (MLCC) capacitors, making them the preferred choice for audio signal paths. They also exhibit no piezoelectric effect and maintain stable capacitance under DC bias — a known weakness of Class II ceramic capacitors (X5R, X7R) at higher voltages.
