A strategy for improving mobility of non‐layered nanoparticles in a polymer matrix is proposed by reducing the interparticulate attraction and enhancing filler/matrix interaction in the rubbery state of the matrix, which induces additional energy dissipation mechanisms and increases toughness of the composites.
