Stans negative voltage components; Patent 661

[Hidden]

If the breakdown max voltage is 200v and you charge it up to 199 you it will remain charged at 199, if you get over 200 v you will get all the energy will discharge destroying the dielectric... dangerous indeed..


water always keep around 1v of charge because most contaminants conduction bands start around 1,24V or more...


my capacitance meter as is automatic reads only resistance even if is very pure distilled water...
if i charge the water, it seems like will never discharge, the meter says cap is charged... even if i keep shorting the electrodes...


might be that thing about the microcapacitors stan talked about

you will get all the energy will discharge destroying the dielectric... dangerous indeed.

This is your judgment of a insulator (standard capacitor) being over powered to the point of dieletric breakdown.

You cannot give a worthy opinion of what a capacitor with binder and poor conductor will do under these circumstances  until you see it with your own eyes.

I am trying to visualize what it would do but as well my judgment isn't worthy until i do it to see..

I think that if you mix a insulator with a poor conductor.. you would at first have a capacitor having a insulated gap..

The first time applying high voltage to the resistive plate it will go through dielectric break down in a spider web of paths through the binder and poor conductor..   think this could happen distributed if enough voltage is applied.

if it could gain distributed dielectric break down paths, you form many low current pathways for discharge across gap..
This would alow no heat in energy transfer in the form of discharge between a gap while allowing i high voltage discharge of a capacitor at a resistive rate to the discharge...??
