Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCCs) are increasingly being demanded for emerging PEMD applications, where high-voltage and high-temperature demands can only be met by MLCCs. These emerging, demanding applications are predicted to drive shipments in the years ahead. Currently there are no ceramic-based solutions that can achieve this as any such part would be too expensive, composed of banks of capacitors. This demand is exasperated by the current global shortage of MLCCs and significant challenges associated with extracting necessary raw materials such as Palladium(Pd) and Nickel(Ni).Within these emerging applications, Electric Vehicle (EV) power electronics systems are a critical market. Greater vehicle electrification is resulting in thousands of MLCCs per vehicle, the latest EVs having 10,000-15,000 MLCCs/vehicle. Increasing near-powertrain, power electronics require higher voltage (\>30V/µm) at temperatures \>100°C. In order to support EV manufacture and promote adoption, there is a **clear commercial need** for MLCCs with high-temperature and high-voltage performance that are free of Palladium, Platinum(Pt) and lead(Pb) that can be realised commercially.**Kaleidoscope addresses DER challenge through:*** **Growing UK supply chains** for global supply of powders and pastes for high-energy density dielectrics and low-cost, non-reacting Ag-based, Pd/Pt free electrode alloys for MLCCs.* **Reaching for net zero** through meeting the increasing technical demands for a range of emerging "green" applications, such as EVs, the materials supply chains will be better able to serve these markets commercially, reducing CO2 emissions.**Kaleidoscope** addresses these challenges by:* Developing environmentally-friendly, lead-free (non-toxic), high-energy density dielectrics and low-cost, non-reacting Ag-based, Pd/Pt free electrode alloys and industrial-scale scale up (post-project). These approaches, combined with demonstration of MLCC production and performance, will enable our consortium to build UK-based supply chains for global supply of powders and pastes for printing ceramic dielectrics and electrically conducting electrodes for MLCCs.**Kaleidoscope** **will open up the rapidly growing EV power electronics market to MLCCs, addressing net-zero demand.****Kaleidoscope** **is considered innovative** as it will radically improve upon the nearest current _state-of-the-art best-in-class_ BaTiO3 ceramic-based MLCCs. Developing materials and processes to enable these MLCCs to be produced for niche and volume supply chains, **Kaleidoscope** is considered a game-changing development that opens up global power electronic applications.**Kaleidoscope** consists of 4 partners, including an SME, who have the expertise needed to develop the high-energy density dielectrics and low-cost, non-reacting Ag-based, Pd/Pt free electrode alloys and build materials supply chains for global exploitation.

新兴的PEMD应用对多层陶瓷电容器(MLCC)的需求越来越大，而高电压和高温的需求只能由MLCC来满足。这些新兴的、要求苛刻的应用程序预计将在未来几年推动发货量。目前还没有基于陶瓷的解决方案可以实现这一点，因为任何这样的部件都太昂贵了，由电容器组组成。当前全球MLCC短缺，以及与提取必要的原材料(如钯(Pd)和镍(Ni))相关的重大挑战，加剧了这一需求。在这些新兴应用中，电动汽车(EV)电力电子系统是一个关键市场。汽车电气化程度的提高导致每辆车有数千辆MLCC，最新的电动汽车每辆车有10,000-15,000辆MLCC。随着接近动力系统的发展，电力电子设备需要更高的温度下的电压(30V/微米)。为了支持电动汽车的制造和推广应用，存在**明显的商业需求**具有可在商业上实现的不含钯、铂(铂)和铅(铅)的高温和高压性能的MLCC。**万花筒通过以下方式应对更大的挑战：*不断增长的英国供应链**为高能量密度介质和低成本、无反应的银基材料提供粉末和浆料。用于MLCC的无Pd/Pt电极合金。*达到净零**通过满足一系列新兴“绿色”应用(如电动汽车)日益增长的技术需求，材料供应链将能够更好地为这些市场提供商业服务，减少二氧化碳排放。**万花筒**通过以下方式应对这些挑战：*开发环保、无铅(无毒)、高能量密度的介质和低成本、无反应的银基无Pd/PT电极合金和工业放大(项目后)。这些方法与MLCC的生产和性能展示相结合，将使我们的财团能够在英国建立供应链，为印刷陶瓷介质和MLCC的导电电极提供全球粉末和浆料。**万花筒*将为MLCC打开快速增长的电动汽车电力电子市场，满足净零需求。*万花筒*被认为是创新**，因为它将从根本上改进最近的最先进的BaTiO3陶瓷基MLCC。开发材料和工艺，使这些MLCC能够为利基和批量供应链生产，**万花筒**被认为是一项改变游戏规则的发展，打开了全球电力电子应用。**万花筒**由4个合作伙伴组成，其中包括一家中小企业，他们拥有开发高能量密度介质和低成本、无反应的银基无反应钯/铂电极合金所需的专业知识，并为全球开发建立材料供应链。
