Abstract Polymer dielectric capacitors have emerged as attractive energy storage solutions for pulsed power applications, attributed to their exceptional breakdown strength and superior processability. Nevertheless, the energy storage performance of polymers is limited by low polarization, making it crucial to develop rational strategies to enhance their energy storage density ( U e ). In this article, Mg‐Al layered double hydroxide nanosheets (MALNS) were in‐plane oriented within a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) matrix through spray‐coating, double‐folding, and hot‐pressing methods, forming the typical “3 + 2” layered composite, consisting of two oriented MALNS layers sandwiched between three PVDF matrix layers. Orientation regulation of positively charged MALNS can enhance their effective area of capturing free charges, which restrains the formation of breakdown paths. Furthermore, two polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) ultrathin layers were coated onto the surfaces of the layered composites to reduce the defects at the dielectric‐electrode interface. Consequently, the PMMA‐covered layered composite filled with 1 mg oriented MALNS in PVDF achieves a high U e of up to 11.9 J/cm 3 under an electric field of 443.2 MV/m, which is 264% and 133% higher than that of pure PVDF (4.5 J/cm 3 and 333.5 MV/m). This research presents a robust and effective strategy for the design and fabrication of high U e energy storage devices. Highlights The in‐plane orientation of MALNS is achieved via the spray‐coating process. The overall polarization and E b of the V x composites have been enhanced. The M 5000 V 1 M 5000 composite exhibits a high U e of 11.9 J/cm 3 and a η of 59.9%. The “3 + 2” orientation structure enhances the capture area for free charges. The multi‐layer structure interface suppresses the migration of space charges.
