Common dielectrics include wood (k = 2), beeswax (k = 4), glass (k = 5), and plastic (k = 5). The capacitors inside consumer electronics like your computer usually use plastic as a dielectric because of its low cost and high dielectric constant value, allowing the capacitors to be made really small.
