Highlights A core–sheath structured phase change nanocomposite (PCN) with aligned and overlapping interconnected BNNS networks were successfully fabricated. The PCN has an ultrahigh in-plane thermal conductivity (28.3 W m−1 K−1), excellent flexibility and high phase change enthalpy (101 J g−1). The PCN exhibits intensively potential applications in the thermal management of 5G base stations and thermoelectric generators.
