What is space charge?

When a dielectric ( insulator) is kept between the two plates of a charged condenser, the atoms or molecules are polarised due to shifting of + nucleus towards negative plate and negative electrons towards positive plate of the condenser. Naturally, any dielectric contains certain defects like grain boundaries, voids, dislocations etc. The migrating charges accumulate at these sites creating additional polarization. This polarization is called space charge polarization. The charges accumulate at the interfaces of the dielectric and condenser plates is called inter-facial polarization, is also one kind of space charge polarization.

What is the difference between electrical polarisation and dielectric polarisation?

in electric polarization ion is formed which have more tendency to form then magnetic polarization . in magnetic polarization just transfer of electron via flux . so the basic reason is that ion has more mobility constant then electron.so electric polarization is more faster then magnetic polarization.
