Despite their tendencies to have low thermal conductivities, epoxy molding compounds (EMCs) are extensively used in automotive applications. In this study, magnesium oxide (MgO) was used as a conductive filler in ECMs to improve the thermal conductivity of the ECMs without altering other important characteristics. ...
Resin polymers, such as Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), have been used in denture fabrication because of their easy molding ability and flawless appearance. However, these PMMAs are not the most desirable material when dealing with mechanical strength, electrical conductivity and thermal stability. In this study, the ...
The effects of the addition of three different fillers to a polymer matrix on the thermo-physical properties of the resulting composites were investigated by the authors. Boron nitride, synthetic diamond, and silicon nitride were used as the fillers (up to 2 vol. %), and it was found ...
Polyactic acid (PLA)-micro hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)-graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) polymer composites were prepared, and the effects of varying filler contents on the thermal and mechanical properties of the polymer composites were investigated. It was determined that the addition of the GNPs resulted in ...
