Power and Thermal Technologies for Air and Space -- Scientific Research Program. Delivery Order 0016: Developing and Processing High Energy Density Polymer Film Dielectrics for High Temperature Air Force Power Electronic Applications

Abstract

The objective of the delivery order (DO) is to develop high energy density polymer dielectrics and optimize their film processing methods for utilization in stacked or rolled capacitor architectures. An emphasis should be placed upon obtaining a material with a high energy density (> 10 J/cc), a low dissipation factor (0.001 percent) and a rapid discharge rate, all of which are stable over a wide temperature range (-55 deg C to 250 deg C), and up to high frequencies (>400 kHz when packaged). A dielectric film with a graceful failure mechanism is also desirable, but without sacrificing the rapid discharge rate (electrode conductivity)
