Effect of processing technique on the transport and mechanical properties of vapour grown carbon nanofibre/rubbery epoxy composites for electronic packaging applications

Electronics packaging is fast paced area of research as scientists work to keep up with the new demands of smaller, more powerful electronic devices. In this study, researchers looked at how the manufacturing technique used to create vapour grown carbon nanofiber  (VGCNF)/rubbery epoxy composites affects the thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity and mechanical properties of the final product. Samples were produced by one of three methods: mechanical mixing (MM), three-roll ...

Preparation and characteristics of mercaptobenzene functionalized graphite and epoxy-based hybrid membranes

Graphite papers can enhance mechanical properties while lowering electrical properties, however, to generate conducting membranes, the chemical and thermal characteristics of the papers require further reduction. In this study, mercaptobenzene (MB) functionalized graphite and epoxy-based hybrid membranes were prepared and analyzed. A thermal analyzer measured the thermal conductivity of the samples using the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that the powder-pressed pellets made of graphite-MB-gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) had ...

Thermal conductivity enhancement of epoxy adhesive using graphene sheets as additives

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 ...

Thermal conductivity and dynamic mechanical property of glycidyl methacrylate-grafted multiwalled carbon nanotube/epoxy composites 

The purpose of this this study was to graft polymer chains onto the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to examine the morphology and thermal properties of the epoxy composites in comparison to multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). A thermal analyzer measured the thermal conductivity of the nanocomposites using the transient plane source (TPS) technique. Results showed that the addition of Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) to the MWCNTs/epoxy composites significantly enhanced thermal ...

Synergetic effect of hybrid boron nitride and multi-walled carbon nanotubes on the thermal conductivity of epoxy composites

Adding metallic nanoparticles to a conventional fluid increases the thermal conductivity of the solution. In this study, flaked boron nitride (BN) and high-aspect-ratio multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were added to epoxy composites to increase thermal conductivity. A thermal analyser measured the thermal conductivity of the nanofluids using the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that adding a small volume of MWCNT to the epoxy composite significantly improved thermal conductivity ...
