Abstract

The longstanding challenges of low thermal conductivity, intrinsic rigidity, and poor recyclability have significantly impeded the application of thermal-response phase change materials in thermal management. Recently, an innovative bionic strategy was proposed to develop a highly conductive, flexible, and recyclable polymer-based phase change thermal management film, effectively managing temperature fluctuations and enhancing the overall efficiency and sustainability in electronic devices and wearable systems.
