Abstract Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are an emerging energy‐harvesting technology capable of converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. However, triboelectric layers, crucial components TENGs, susceptible to and structural damage in harsh environments, thereby compromising the device's output performance limiting its applicability. Therefore, developing layers with excellent strength environmental stability poses a challenge. Inspired by intricate multiple cross‐linking networks present myofibrillar proteins, strategy is proposed prepare conductive special rubbers outstanding (13.5 MPa), stability, conductivity (0.86 S m −1 ) using “grafting–hydrogenation–cross‐linking–filling” process. The considerably enhanced rubber's 100 times (0.3–30.3 MPa). Subsequently, these employed as accordion‐structured which demonstrated exceptional open‐circuit voltage 723 V power density up 3.25 W −2 . TENGs can operate stably wide range environments. This study provides viable for designing functioning contributing sustainable solutions.

Abstract Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) technology has provided a new manufacturing strategy for the rapid and scalable assembling of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG). However, current LIG‐based TENG commonly rely on polymer films, e.g., polyimide (PI) as both friction material carbon precursor electrodes, which limit structural diversity performance escalation due to its incapability folding creasing. Using specialized PI paper composed randomly distributed fibers substantially enhance foldability, this work creates type TENG, are structurally foldable stackable, tailorable. First, by systematically investigating laser power‐regulated single‐unit open‐circuit voltage can be effectively improved. By further exploiting process, multiple units assembled together form multi‐layered structures continuously expand from 5.3 34.4 V cm −2 , increase 1 16.
