This study aimed to enhance the thermal and mechanical properties of polyethylene (PE)/boron nitride (BN) composites by manipulating the BN concentrations in the matrix and by applying shear fields in laminating-multiplying elements (LMEs). A thermal constants analyzer measured the thermal conductivity of the PE/...
Phosphosilicate ceramics with varying compositions were synthesized through the sol-gel process and the thermal conductivity of the samples was measured using the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that the thermal conductivity of phosphosilicate ceramic powder was low, but increased slightly with phosphorous concentration. ...
Using a solid hot stretching technique, highly-oriented polyoxymethyelen (POM)/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) composites were created. Thermal properties were analyzed both in the stretched and through-plane directions. Researchers found that by increasing the draw ratio, to as high as 900%, the thermal conductivity of the composite ...
