Improved Triboelectric Nanogenerator Output Performance through Polymer Nanocomposites Filled with Core-shell-Structured Particles.

Core-shell-structured BaTiO-poly( tert-butyl acrylate) (P tBA) nanoparticles are successfully prepared by in situ atom transfer radical polymerization of tert-butyl acrylate ( tBA) on BaTiO nanoparticle surface. The thickness of the P tBA shell layer could be controlled by adjusting the feed ratio of tBA to BaTiO. The BaTiO-P tBA nanoparticles are introduced into poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) matrix to form a BaTiO-P tBA/PVDF nanocomposite.
