In this work, the (P (VDF-TrFE)(55/45)) was used as polymer matrix and 0.75BiFeO₃-0.25BaTiO₃(BFO-BTO) nanofiber was used as fillers to enhance the thermal conductivity of the copolymer.The enhanced thermal conductivity was achieved by adding a small amount of BFO-BTO nanofibers to the copolymer.A thermal conductivity of the composite film with 2% nanofibers was 0.21 W·m^-1·K^-1 at 75℃, which was nearly twice that of the P (VDF-TrFE)(55/45) copolymer film.At the same time, the electrocaloric effect (ECE) of the copolymer almost remained unchanged after the addition of nanofibers.The results suggest that the addition of BFO-BTO nanofibers is effective to improve the thermal conductivity of P (VDF-TrFE)(55/45) copolymer while maintaining high ECE.
