Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
This article explored polymeric composites and their thermal characteristics, such as their high thermal conductivity and excellent thermal stability. These characteristics are highly desired as they can be widely applied in the electronics, medical, manufacturing, etc., industries. The thermal conductivities were studied using a variety of sources, including the transient plane source (TPS). After conducting several studies on the thermally conductive polymeric composites, it was determined that there were some ...
This article reviewed the methods that are available to test thermal properties of various insulating materials. These methods can fall under one of two categories: steady state techniques and non-steady (transient) techniques. The transient plane source (TPS) method is classified as a non-steady state technique. The TPS sensor is a round piece of engraved nickel that conducts electrical currents and is covered with a coating of Kapton, Mica or Teflon. ...
