Customer ServiceAs Max stated, capacitors do have ESR. This dissipates power when charging and discharging the capacitor. This causes heating of the capacitor and it''s the maximum capacitor operating temperature which limits how much current and the frequency of the current pulses that the cap can tolerate.
Customer ServiceCapacitors have a maximum voltage, called the working voltage or rated voltage, which specifies the maximum potential difference that can be applied safely across the terminals. Exceeding the rated voltage causes the dielectric material between the capacitor plates to break down, resulting in permanent damage to the capacitor.

Customer Service・Applicable to Rated Voltage of less than 100VDC. The load should be contained to the level such that when measuring at atmospheric temperature of 25°C, the product''s self-heating remains below 20°C and the surface temperature of the capacitor in the actual circuit remains within the maximum operating temperature.
Customer ServiceIt does not seem to be the absolute maximum rating. The capacitor charging current will drop exponentially, but I don''t know from these specifications if it can withstand 150mA for 10-20 seconds when charging the capacitor from 0V. The capacitor case is can-like with a diameter of ~17mm, and the specs does not specify power ratings for the case.
Customer ServiceGiven a fixed voltage, the capacitor current is zero and thus the capacitor behaves like an open. If the voltage is changing rapidly, the current will be high and the capacitor behaves more like a short. Expressed as a formula: [i = C frac{d v}{d t} label{8.5} ] Where (i) is the current flowing through the capacitor, (C) is the capacitance,
Customer ServiceThe capacitor datasheet indicates a ripple current rating that broadly describes the maximum ripple the device can withstand. This can be used as a guide, with the understanding that it is evaluated under controlled conditions. These are defined in standards such as EIA-809 or EIA/IS-535-BAAE, although there is some ambiguity in these documents

Customer ServiceLeakage Current vs. Dielectric Current Figure 1 illustrates a simple insulation model which applies to every electrical and electronic device. The resistor accounts for resistive current through the insulation and the capacitor accounts for capacitively coupled currents. For modern insulation material, the insulation resistance is very large, so

Customer ServiceOnce the capacitor is charged in your circuit, no current will flow. If the capacitor is fully discharged, then the current at the start will be 100 V/8 Ω = 12.5 A, but since the power supply can only deliver 5 A you will only get 5 A during the charge phase. As the capacitor charges, the current flow will go to zero.
Customer ServiceUsing capacitors with very low ESRs helps to minimize power dissipation and enhance the capacity of the circuit to withstand high ripple currents. The operational life of most types of capacitors is greatly determined
Customer ServiceOnce the capacitor is charged in your circuit, no current will flow. If the capacitor is fully discharged, then the current at the start will be 100
Customer ServiceNote: The capacitor is usually infinitely resistant to direct current (DC). On the other hand, the capacitor lets alternating current (AC) through. The current cannot flow directly through the dielectric even here, but because of the alternating charging and discharging of the plates, charged carriers appear to be transported through the capacitor.
Customer ServiceThe maximum energy (U) a capacitor can store can be calculated as a function of U d, the dielectric strength per distance, as well as capacitor''s voltage (V) at its breakdown limit (the maximum voltage before the dielectric ionizes and no longer operates as an insulator):

can withstand 150mA for 10-20 seconds when charging the capacitor from 0V It cannot. Maximum voltage is 5,5 volts, and its ESR is 65 Ohms => max current is about 85 mA. What is the meaning of the MAX current at 30 min. column ? The datasheet has the answer: It is the residual current after 30 min. charging time (from completely discharged).
The charging current to the capacitor is shown in Figure 3. (circuit diagram as in Figure 2.). If the capacitor is ideal the current would rapidly attain the limiting value corresponding to the IR. The ideal current curve is designated I C-ideal.
Any voltage in reverse polarity beyond the ‘Reverse Voltage’ of the polarized capacitor can permanently damage it. 8) Ripple Current – The Ripple Current is the maximum RMS value of AC current that the capacitor can withstand. It is often indicated for 120Hz frequency and 85°C temperature until otherwise specified.
The capacitance value is 19.9µF at 400kHz under the applied DC bias, and thus restricts the peak-to-peak ripple voltage to 63mV. Hence Vrms = 22.27mV. This capacitor’s ESR is 3.246mΩ at 400kHz, suggesting the ripple current is 6.86A, which is below the maximum for the device.
As a result of this action, the capacitor continuously passes a varying current. This current is called ripple. Although ripple current is the inevitable result of the capacitor performing its required task, it causes undesirable I2R heating as it passes through the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) that is associated with any capacitor.
