Do you ever see slices of ferrite core used in capacitors, how do you 
think that would work  ?

I bet you won't charge that one up.Putting metal laden material between 
charged poles is not a good idea.

They usually stick to using a thin non metallic insulator with good 
insulation properties, otherwise known as a true dielectric.


Ferrite cores are not a dielectric
