Solution Overview

Problem

Existing film capacitors face challenges in increasing capacitance without reducing the thickness of the dielectric membrane layer, which is difficult to process and prone to insulation breakdown, and polyurea-based dielectric materials risk metal corrosion due to amide bonds.

Innovation Solution

A dielectric composition comprising a polymer with a repeating unit of a heterocycle and carbonyl group is used, avoiding amide bonds to enhance permittivity and stability, allowing for high capacitance without thickness reduction.

1Quantity of substance

If the thickness of the dielectric membrane layer is reduced to increase capacitance, then the capacitance increases, but the processing difficulty increases and insulation breakdown occurs

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the chemical composition parameters of the dielectric material by introducing specific heterocyclic structures (morpholino, piperidino, or homopiperidino groups) into the polymer backbone. This compositional parameter change enables the dielectric layer to achieve higher permittivity (εr ≥ 3.5) at maintained thickness, thereby increasing capacitance without the need to reduce thickness, thus avoiding insulation breakdown issues

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a composite polymer structure by incorporating heterocyclic rings (containing N or O atoms) into the polymer backbone alongside carbonyl groups. This composite material approach combines the benefits of high permittivity from the heterocyclic-polar group combinations while maintaining the structural integrity and insulation properties of the polymer matrix

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

2Stress or pressure

If polyurea is used as a dielectric with high permittivity, then the permittivity increases, but metal corrosion occurs due to amine adsorption

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovepermittivityVSAvoidmetal corrosion
Core Design Contradiction:
Stress or pressureVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts and eliminates the amide bond structure (-CONH-) from the polymer backbone that is present in polyurea. By removing this specific structural component, the source of amine generation is eliminated, thereby preventing metal corrosion while retaining high permittivity through alternative heterocyclic structures

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent converts the potential harm of amine generation into a benefit by replacing the amide bond with heterocyclic structures containing N or O atoms. These alternative structures provide similar or enhanced permittivity without the harmful side effect of amine release, thus transforming a harmful chemical pathway into a beneficial one

Inventive Principle:
Principle #22Blessing in disguise (Convert harm into benefit)
