I only ask and I see that this interest ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
This is example Epcos medium power application DC-link cap data:

They are not always cylindrical shape, rectangle shaped is better to solder right for pcb. There are some much better types than this Epcos. I have even one commercial circuit diagram where input filter uses only this type filtering capacitor and if output power is mentioned 8kW then this filter capacitor must be only 320uF because (important part) they are much faster, high dV/dt, permissible currents are also higher, very low ESR (some milli-ohm) compared to elcos, long life compared to elcos.
I'm not a salesman though it may seems but I thought maybe someone had tried it and OK, I have halfway one experiment mockup at this moment and if this work I maybe speak more of it.
