Polymer-based dielectrics are chiefly used in high-pulse energy storage capacitors for their high breakdown strength, prominent processability, and low cost. Nevertheless, state-of-the-art commercial polymer-based dielectrics such as biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP), cannot satisfy the high energy density requirement in many fields because of their low permittivity. Limited success has been achieved in developing polar polymeric dielectrics with high energy density because of the quickly increased energy loss from polarization relaxation and charge conduction under a high electric field and temperature. To achieve high energy density and low loss in polar polymer dielectrics simultaneously, electron-deficient vinyl quinoline (VQQ) units are pre-copolymerized with methyl methacrylate (MMA) followed by blending with a PMMA matrix. The bulky and electron-deficient VQQs have successfully depressed the relaxation of PMMA and significantly decreased charge conduction under an elevated electric field. As a result, a rather high energy discharging efficiency (over 90%) could be finely maintained up to 800 MV m-1, and an energy density of 16.1 J cm-3 could be obtained, which are much better than those of reported polymer dielectrics. The strong space charge trapping effect of the low content of VQQ is well addressed by thermally stimulated depolarization currents (TSDC) and density functional theory analysis (DFT) of increasing breakdown strength, energy density and discharging efficiency. This work offers a promising strategy for achieving high energy density and low loss in polar polymer dielectrics for their commercial application in energy storage capacitors.
