Recently, 2-D graphene nanoparticles produced by graphite exfoliation are a promising nanofiller for enhancing the thermal conductivity of polymeric materials. Unlike one-dimensional structures of carbon nanotubes, the 2-D structure provides reinforcement of polymer nanocomposites in two directions. In this article, multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and 2...
Despite its fragility, poor thermal properties, and high water sorption rates, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is commonly used in denture fabrication. This study aimed to examine how the addition of Aluminum oxide nanoparticles affected the properties of PMMA. A thermal constant analyzer measured the thermal properties ...
In this study, the thermal conductivity of alkanes was altered, by using inverse micellar templating and nanofibers. The main goal of this study was to create alkanes with tunable thermal conductivities, for their use as phase change materials in heat management. The thermal conductivity of ...
