Linear‐Nonlinear‐Linear Sandwich‐Structured Polymer Composites With Metal‐Organic Framework (MOF)‐Enhanced Insulating Layers and Horizontally Oriented Nanotube‐Filled Polarization Layer for High Energy Storage Performance

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A linear‐nonlinear‐linear (LNL) sandwich dielectric film was rationally designed for high energy storage. Its outer linear layers are MOF (ZIF‐8)‐enhanced PEI composites (EZ), and the middle nonlinear layer is an electrospun‐hot‐pressed P(VDF‐HFP)/TNTs composite (PT) with horizontally oriented TNTs.
