Abstract
In today’s electric power systems, biodegradable and environmentally benign dielectric materials with outstanding dielectric capabilities are essential. Here, a hybrid filler MXene@PDA (M@P) was acquired by coating MXene with polydopamine (PDA), and then it was added into cellulose matrix to manufacture regenerated cellulose/M@P (RC/M@P) composite films. Finally, a crosslinking strategy with glutaraldehyde (GA) assistance was developed to further modify the RC/M@P composite films. The crosslinked composite films (CRC/M@P) had a denser structure with fewer defects, considerably decreased dielectric loss, and significantly strengthened breakdown strength. The highest energy storage density of 3.37 J/cm3 was obtained for CRC/M@P-1 composite film with only 1 wt% M@P at 361.07 MV/m, achieving significant enhancement compared with the original CRC film. Moreover, crosslinking also contributed to the CRC/M@P for achieving better mechanical properties. The excellent comprehensive performances endow CRC/M@P composite films with promising application for the next-generation dielectric capacitors.
期刊介绍:
European Polymer Journal is dedicated to publishing work on fundamental and applied polymer chemistry and macromolecular materials. The journal covers all aspects of polymer synthesis, including polymerization mechanisms and chemical functional transformations, with a focus on novel polymers and the relationships between molecular structure and polymer properties. In addition, we welcome submissions on bio-based or renewable polymers, stimuli-responsive systems and polymer bio-hybrids. European Polymer Journal also publishes research on the biomedical application of polymers, including drug delivery and regenerative medicine. The main scope is covered but not limited to the following core research areas:
Polymer synthesis and functionalization
• Novel synthetic routes for polymerization, functional modification, controlled/living polymerization and precision polymers.
Stimuli-responsive polymers
• Including shape memory and self-healing polymers.
Supramolecular polymers and self-assembly
• Molecular recognition and higher order polymer structures.
Renewable and sustainable polymers
• Bio-based, biodegradable and anti-microbial polymers and polymeric bio-nanocomposites.
Polymers at interfaces and surfaces
• Chemistry and engineering of surfaces with biological relevance, including patterning, antifouling polymers and polymers for membrane applications.
Biomedical applications and nanomedicine
• Polymers for regenerative medicine, drug delivery molecular release and gene therapy
The scope of European Polymer Journal no longer includes Polymer Physics.
