Polymer Nanodielectrics: Current
Accomplishments and Future Challenges
for Electric Energy Storage
Guoqiang Zhang, Elshad Allahyarov and Lei Zhu
Abstract In response to the need for high energy density and low-loss film
capacitors in various electrical and power applications, polymer nanocomposite
dielectricsornanodielectricshaveattractedsubstantialattentioninrecentyears.The
idea is to combine the high dielectric constant property from inorganic nanoparti-
cles and the high breakdown strength and low-loss properties from the polymer
matrices. Both theoretical and experimental studies have carried out to testify this
idea.Inthischapter,wereviewboththeoreticalandexperimentalachievementsand
fundamental understanding on this topic. In particular, we focus on the dielectric
loss mechanisms in polymer nanodielectrics. It is found that high permittivity
contrast between the nanofillers and the polymer matrices tends to decrease the
dielectric breakdown strength because of nonuniform electric field distribution.
Highconductivitycontrastbetweenceramicnanofillersandthepolymermatrixwill
induce internal electronic conduction loss. For polymer/metallic nanoparticle
dielectrics, field electron emission from metallic nanoparticles under a high field
tends to increase the electronic conduction and thus decrease the dielectric break-
down strength. In the future, research should focus on mitigating these dielectric
loss mechanisms in order to achieve viable polymer nanodielectrics for film
capacitor applications.

1 Introduction to Polymer Nanodielectrics
1.1 The Need for Next-Generation Polymer Film Capacitors
Advanced energy technologies in the twenty-first century, e.g., pulsed power,
power conditioning, power electronics in hybrid/electric vehicles, and medical/
consumer electronics, create an urgent need for lightweight, compact, and
cost-efficientenergy conversionandstorage components suchascapacitors, which
featurehighenergydensity,highpowerdensity,broadoperatingtemperaturerange,
as well as good environmental stability [1, 2]. Among various technologies,
polymer film capacitors have gained importance in applications that require high
power and high energy density, fast charge/discharge rates, high voltage and tol-
erancetohighripplecurrents,becausetheirpowerdensityisthehighestcompared
to other types of capacitors such as ceramic and electrolytic capacitors. Unlike
batteries, electrochemical capacitors, and fuel cells, energy storage using electro-
static capacitors is purely a physical process based on separation of opposite static
charges under an applied electric field. Therefore, stable capacitance over a wide
temperature range and a long cycle lifetime represent a unique feature for linear
dielectric film capacitors.
Ideally, a high-performance dielectric material should qualify the following
factors, including large permittivity or dielectric constant (e), high dielectric
r
breakdown strength (E ), high discharge efficiency (η), high resistivity, and broad
b
operatingtemperaturewindow.However,barelyanycurrentlyavailablematerialis
able to perform well in all aspects. For example, there are a few shortcomings for
current state-of-the-art polymer film capacitors. First, they have a lower energy
density than electrolytic and ceramic capacitors because of their low dielectric
constants (typically 2–5). This limits the miniaturization and often results in large
form factor and low energy-to-weight ratio (*0.01–0.1 kWh/kg) for film capaci-
tors. Second, the temperature rating for current state-of-the-art biaxially oriented
polypropylene (BOPP) film capacitors is limited at 85 °C. This is primarily
attributedtothedefectinitiationandgrowthinBOPPatelevatedtemperatures.Asa
result,thebreakdownstrengthandlifetimewillsubstantiallydecreasecomparedto
those at room temperatures. Current research focuses on enhancing the energy
density and temperature tolerance, while keeping ultra-low losses for dielectric
polymers [3, 4].
Theoverallperformanceofanelectrostaticcapacitorislargelydeterminedbythe
dielectric material placed between two metal electrodes. For linear dielectrics, the
energy density (U ) has a linear relationship with the relative permittivity e, and a
