630V caps will usually be MKT (polyester foil) and not suitable for pulses or large AC signals (or across the mains for that matter). You'll have to use MKP or KP/MKP (polypropylene foil or film/foil) for those positions, especially the booster capacitor. For across the mains, any X2 rated type will be okay, preferrably also MKP.
