Cellulose is a sustainable natural polymer material that has found widespread application in transformers and other power equipment because of its excellent electrical and mechanical performance. However, the utility of cellulose materials has been limited by the challenge of balancing heat resistance with flexibility. On the basis of the preliminary research conducted by the research team, further proposals have been put forward for a method involving disk milling to create a "micro-nanocollaboration" network for the fabrication of flexible, high-temperature-resistant, and ultrafine fiber-based cellulose insulating films. The resulting full-component cellulose films exhibited impressive properties, including high tensile strength (22 MPa), flexibility (92-263 mN), remarkable electrical breakdown strength (39 KV/mm), and volume resistivity that meets the standards for insulation materials (4.92 × 1011 Ω·m). These results demonstrate that the proposed method can produce full-component cellulose insulation films that offer both exceptional flexibility and high-temperature resistance.
