Metallized film capacitors are a common cause of electronic system failure. Since some of their failures can lead to serious accidents and severe damage to their surroundings, such as explosions or fires, their fail-safe should be ensured independently of their intern structure. The aim of this paper is to investigate the runaway process leading to these catastrophic failures.

The thin metallization on the polymer films gives these metallized thin film capacitors a unique self-healing property.

Chip capacitors destined for high reliability testing are often designed with an added margin of safety, namely maximization of the dielectric thickness, and tested extensively for electrical properties prior to burn-in (e.g., capacitance, dissipation factor, and insulation resistance).
Capacitance and equivalent series resistance (ESR) are the typical indicators to characterize the health state of capacitors, and their degradation processes also show obvious dependence .
However, due to the adverse working conditions, such as high voltage and high temperature, film capacitors generally own a lower reliability index. And the sudden failure or fault of film capacitors is very likely to cause the paralysis of the whole electronic system, which may lead to a catastrophic accident.
A capacitance value significantly below the nominal rating is indicative of dielectric failure or deterioration, necessitating replacement. Visual inspections should complement these tests, particularly in high-power circuits where capacitors in power supply filter sections are more susceptible to failure.
