Paumanok Publications, Inc. has released its 2013 report on the global supply
chain for plastic dielectric films to the capacitor industry with market
forecasts to 2018. The study focuses on all known film dielectrics consumed in
capacitors, with emphasis upon OPP, PET, PPS, PEN, PTFE and PI films. The
study Includes value, volume and average prices for capacitor grade plastic
dielectric film consumed in AC and DC film capacitor applications. The study
compared and contrasts various dielectric films and their performance as
dielectric materials. The study evaluates the supply chain from resin to
extrusion to metallization and consumption. The study also addresses capacitor
costs to produce and how plastic dielectric films make up the variable cost
structure of the finished capacitor. The study addresses global consumption
value for dielectric films by world region and trends; and identifies and
quantifies markets, technologies and opportunities for plastic dielectric
films capacitors for line voltage and power; lighting and digital electronics.
Emerging opportunities for film consumption in renewable energy systems,
including solar energy, wind turbine, geothermal and tidal energy are
quantified and discussed. Forecasts for dielectric film consumption from 2013
to 2018 iincluding value, volume and pricing is also addressed. Sales and
