Unlike the mechanisms behind their enhanced mechanical properties, application of artificial nacre-like materials has attracted very little attention from scholars. In this study, we designed a unique artificial nacre-like material that integrated outstanding mechanical properties and dielectric insulation properties by assembling MTM nanosheet and aramid nanofiber (ANF) through vacuum-assisted filtration. Compared with other nanocomposite films, the layered ANF/MTM nanocomposite film displayed superior mechanical properties (the tensile strength of ~ 126.5 MPa and elongation at break of ~ 2.56%) and dielectric insulation performance (77.2 kV/mm). In addition, it exhibited good transparency and flexibility. Therefore, this nanocomposite film has great potential for application in flexible electronics and high-voltage electrical insulation.

基于蒙脱石纳米片和芳纶纳米纤维的具有优异介电绝缘性能和机械强度的类珍珠层纳米复合薄膜

与其增强机械性能背后的机制不同，人造珍珠层材料的应用很少引起学者的关注。在这项研究中，我们设计了一种独特的人造珍珠层状材料，通过真空辅助过滤组装 MTM 纳米片和芳纶纳米纤维 (ANF)，将出色的机械性能和介电绝缘性能结合在一起。与其他纳米复合薄膜相比，层状 ANF/MTM 纳米复合薄膜显示出优异的机械性能（~126.5 MPa 的拉伸强度和~2.56% 的断裂伸长率）和介电绝缘性能（77.2 kV/mm）。此外，它还表现出良好的透明度和柔韧性。因此，这种纳米复合薄膜在柔性电子和高压电绝缘方面具有巨大的应用潜力。
