Thermal adhesives that contain large proportions of high thermal conductivity filler materials are extremely useful in electronics and manufacturing. Due to the importance of these fillers it is crucial to know their exact properties. Five adhesives are examined for their thermal conductivities. These values were obtained using a guarded heat flow meter with a method following the ASTM test standard. This method ...
In this study, various filler loadings of thin graphite sheets were added to epoxy adhesives to improve thermal conductivity. Natural graphite powder and graphite nanoflakes were used as reference fillers in the same resin, and the thermal conductivity of each filler was measured with a TPS thermal constants analyzer based on the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that the graphene sheets enhanced the thermal conductivity by more than 22 ...
