Over the past decade, there has been significant interest in polysiloxane-based dielectric elastomers as promising soft electroactive materials. Nevertheless, the natural low permittivity of polydimethylsiloxane has limited its practical applications. In this study, we have developed silicone rubber/Al@SiO composites with a high dielectric constant, low dielectric loss, and high electrical breakdown strength by controlling the shell layer thickness and the content of the core-shell filler. We also investigated the dielectric behavior of the composites. The use of core-shell fillers has increased the Maxwell-Wagner-Sillars (MWS) relaxation process while reducing the dielectric loss of direct current conductance in silicone rubber composites. Moreover, the temperature dependence of the MWS relaxation time in the composites follows the Arrhenius equation. This strategy of increasing the permittivity of silicone composites through core-shell structural fillers can inspire the preparation of other high dielectric constant composites.

All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) are pursued due to their potential for better safety and high energy density. However, the energy density of the cathode for ASSBs does not seem to be satisfactory due to the low utilization of active materials (AMs) at high loading. With small amount of solid electrolyte (SE) powder in the cathode, poor electrochemical performance is often observed due to contact loss and non-homogeneous distribution of AMs and SEs, leading to high tortuosity and limitation of lithium and electron transport pathways.

The rapid development of modern electronic devices increasingly requires thermal management materials with controllable electrical properties, ranging from conductive and dielectric to insulating, to meet the needs of diverse applications. However, highly thermally conductive materials usually have a high electrical conductivity. Intrinsically highly thermally conductive, but electrically insulating materials are still limited to a few kinds of materials.

The slow ion transport kinetics inside or between the nanofillers in composite polymer electrolytes (CPEs) lead to the formation of lithium dendrites for solid-state lithium batteries. To address the critical issues, CPEs (U@UNL) composed of a UIO-66@UIO-66-NH (U@UN) core-shell heterostructure and LiLaZrTaO (LLZTO) filler is designed. Due to the different band structures of the U@UN heterostructure, a built-in electric field is constructed to promote the transfer kinetics of carriers.

Rational design and precision fabrication of magnetic-dielectric composites have significant application potential for microwave absorption in the low-frequency range of 2-8 GHz. However, the composition and structure engineering of these composites in regulating their magnetic-dielectric balance to achieve high-performance low-frequency microwave absorption remains challenging. Herein, a self-templating engineering strategy is proposed to fabricate hollow N-doped carbon microspheres anchored with ternary FeCoNi alloys.
