May I ask what is meant by dv/dt?

Rajesh, the product pages state the caps are made with aluminum foil
using
the extended foil connection technique.  They look like good ones to
me!  Although I didn't see a current or dV/dt ratings for them in a
casual
scan of the pdf, they may be listed somewhere.  Be sure you don't exceed

the dV/dt or current by too much or you'll have a dead MMC. :(

Have you considered "us?":

We ship internationally, and I can get you a quote if you know exactly
how
many caps you want and how quickly you want them.  Sometimes we're less
expensive on the international scene, sometimes not - either way (us or
Alcon), you should get a pretty good MMC!
