Ray,
   You will probably get at least ten other letters from people telling you
not to use PVC as a dielectric.   I suffers from high losses in TC
applications.   It might work ok for a DC capacitor since the voltage reversal
would not be there, but not for TC caps, which see very fast voltage
reversals.  Polyethylene and polypropylene are about the two best choices for
dielectrics.
   Hope this helps.
