This review summarized several control optimization mechanisms for multilayer ceramic film capacitors by recalling previous studies on multilayer films. In addition, the outlook and future research direction of multilayer films were also discussed.

The valence band electronic structures of mixed uranium oxides (UO ₂ , U ₄ O ₉ , U ₃ O ₇ , U ₃ O ₈ , and β-UO ₃ ) have been studied using the resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) technique at the U M ₅ edge and computational methods.

Bamboo leaf-like CuO(b) and flaky-shaped CuO(f) were prepared by the hydrothermal method, and then combined with Al nanoparticles to form Al/CuO(b) and Al/CuO(f) by the ultrasonic dispersion method. The phase, composition, morphology, and structure of the composites were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy scattering spectrometer (EDS). The compatibility of CuO, Al/CuO and nitrocellulose (NC) was evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The effects of CuO and Al/CuO on the thermal decomposition of NC were also studied. The results show that the thermal decomposition reactions of CuO-NC composite, Al/CuO-NC composite, and NC follow the same kinetic mechanism of Avrami-Erofeev equation. In the cases of CuO and Al/CuO, they could promote the O-NO₂ bond cleavage and secondary autocatalytic reaction in condensed phase. The effects of these catalysts have some difference in modifying the thermolysis process of NC due to the microstructures of CuO and the addition of Al nanopowders. Furthermore, the presence of Al/CuO(f) can make the Al/CuO(f)-NC composite easier to ignite, whereas the composites have strong resistance to high temperature. Compatibility and thermal safety analysis showed that the Al/CuO had good compatibility with NC and it could be used safely. This contribution suggests that CuO and Al/CuO played key roles in accelerating the thermal decomposition of NC.
