Advanced Capacitor Material Design Verification Technology
■ Technology overview
In response to the applications of 5G communications, automotive electronics, AI servers, and green energy, capacitors continue to evolve towards miniaturization, higher capacitance, and lower impedance to enhance component performance. Facing the challenges of high speed and high efficiency at extreme operating environments, capacitors must also possess high temperature and weather resistance, as well as long-term reliability. The key technology lies in material composition design and optimization. This technology includes the development of advanced capacitor materials such as low-impedance electrolytes for wide-temperature applications, high-voltage electrolytes with long-term reliability, and high-capacitance electrode foil materials.

Advanced Electrocatalyst Material Design Verification Technology
■ Technology overview
In response to the trend of net-zero emissions, the application and development of green hydrogen energy technology is being driven, and electrocatalysts, which play a key role in this, are becoming increasingly widely used. Currently, electrocatalysts used in hydrogen energy applications(such as fuel cells and electrolytic hydrogen production) are mainly precious metals(such as platinum, iridium, etc.)Due to the high cost and scarcity of materials, this is not conducive to the expansion of the hydrogen energy market. To make the technology competitive, in addition to reducing energy consumption to improve efficiency, the development and use of low-cost new electrocatalyst materials is also important. The electrocatalyst material design and verification development platform established by this technology adopts multi-material composition design, high-throughput catalyst material composition chip screening and verification, and is applied to the development of new electrocatalysts for fuel cells and hydrogen electrolysis.
