Abstract

Abstract A roll-type capacitor includes a roll made of strip-shaped metal electrodes and plastic foils arranged as a dielectric between the electrodes and is surrounded by an envelope of plastic embracing the periphery of the roll. The envelope consists of thermally shrinkable material and contacts the roll under elastic stress. The envelope material may be e.g., polyvinylchloride, that releases flame-inhibiting gases, in particular chlorine, when heated. The roll has a core consisting of a material that releases flame-inhibiting gases when heated. The envelope may consist of a layer or a plurality of layers of a self-sealing shrinkable foil.
