Abstract
This study explores how the performance of triboelectric nanogenerators can be enhanced by incorporating Fe3O4 nanoparticles into nylon films using a spray coating technique. Five triboelectric nanogenerator prototypes were created: one with regular nylon and four with nylon/Fe3O4 nanocomposites featuring varying nanoparticle densities. The electrical output, measured by open‐circuit voltage and short‐circuit current, showed significant improvements in the nanocomposite‐based triboelectric nanogenerators compared to the nylon‐only triboelectric nanogenerator. When a weak magnetic field was applied during nanocomposite preparation, the maximum voltage and current reached 56.3 V and 4.62 μA, respectively. Further analysis revealed that the magnetic field during the drying process aligned the magnetic domains, boosting output efficiency. These findings demonstrate the potential of Fe3O4 nanoparticles to enhance electrostatic and magnetic interactions in triboelectric nanogenerators, leading to improved energy‐harvesting performance. This approach presents a promising strategy for developing high‐performance triboelectric nanogenerators for sustainable energy and sensor applications.
