Grant,
I briefly worked for a small company that used these little guys extensively, with repeated failures.  I could not get them designed out.  They (caps) absolutely do not like washing and we had problems with some no-clean pastes even.  It would appear the structure/chemistry of these things makes them sponges.  Whether that leads specifically to delamination I cannot say.

Hi,

Has anyone experienced delaminating of glued PPS chip capacitors?

Regards
