Understanding ESR in electrolytic capacitors
The capacitor equivalent circuit comprises four elements (Figure 1, right): capacitance, equivalent series inductance (ESL) - the sum of inductive elements including leads, a high-resistance DC path (Rp) in parallel with the capacitance, and equivalent series resistance (ESR) - the series resistive effects combined into a single element.

The Ultimate Capacitors Guide: Learn How To Use Them
A 1uF capacitor and a 10uF capacitor are other common ones seen in circuits. They do a good job of helping smooth out ripple noise in DC voltages. For super capacitors, a 1 Farad capacitor or even a 2 Farad capacitor is seen often on boards that need a little current even if the power goes out or the battery dies.
Snap-in Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors
In aluminum electrolytic capacitors, electrolyte is injected inside the capacitor, and the sealing material is tightened with the aluminum case to maintain a seal. However, as the electrolyte evaporates through the molecules of the sealing material, the amount of electrolyte inside decreases over time.
