Polyoxymethylene (POM) is a resistant polymer with wide applications in aerospace, automotives, and biomedicine. However, it falls short when used in the manufacturing of sliding parts. In this study, copper particles and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) powder were incorporated into POM to improve the thermal conductivity of ...
Using a solid hot stretching technique, highly-oriented polyoxymethyelen (POM)/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) composites were created. Thermal properties were analyzed both in the stretched and through-plane directions. Researchers found that by increasing the draw ratio, to as high as 900%, the thermal conductivity of the composite ...
In this research article, the thermal conductivity of a polyoxymethylene (POM)/graphite composite was explored. This composite was prepared through an intense process of four intercalation methods; melt, solution, pan milling and in situ intercalation. Graphite is a thermally conductive material, and therefore, it was ...
