The application of carbon nanotubes (CNT) to thermal management devices has recently drawn much attention. This study produced and examined metal-carbon nanotube composites for use in highly conductive yet stable thermal management materials. The structural and thermophysical properties of metal-CNT composites were examined, including the measurement of thermal conductivity using the Thermal Constants Analyzer TPS transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that generally, inverse relationships were observed between thermal ...
In mold fluxes, fluorine is generally added to reduce viscosity and solidification. The fluorine however, tends to cause corrosion of the casting machine and leads to environmental pollution. To potentially rid this design of these issues, researchers in this study examined the Fluorine-free mold flux, in a specific glass system. Properties such as viscosity, thermal conductivity and crystallization behaviour were all analyzed and compared to the values for the commercial ...
