摘要

Polyetherimide (PEI) polymers serve as crucial dielectric materials for high-temperature capacitive energy storage applications. However, their widespread adoption has been limited by significant performance degradation under elevated temperatures. Here, all-organic pure PEI films are fabricated via a scalable rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process to enhance the energy storage performance. The RTA treatment effectively promotes rapid volatilization of residual solvent with significantly reduced processing time. Remarkably, PEI films annealed at 180 °C exhibit outstanding energy storage performance, achieving a discharged energy density (ESD) of 11.34 J/cm3 with an efficiency of 89.63% at room temperature. These films simultaneously demonstrate exceptional breakdown strength (671 kV/mm) and maintain a high ESD of 6.03 J/cm3 at 150 °C. Furthermore, the optimized films display excellent cyclic stability over 106 cycles, sustaining a power density of 0.412 MW/cm3 at 200 kV/mm and 150 °C. The demonstrated approach presents a practical pathway for developing high-performance polymer dielectrics capable of reliable operation in demanding high-temperature environments.
