Effect of Particle Shape on Thermal Conductivity of Copper Reinforced Polymer Composites

Copper powder was used a filler and added to a polyamide matrix in order to generate copper reinforced polyamide composites. The copper powder came in three different forms: short fibers, plates and spheres. The short fibers were added to the polyamide matrix at a vol.% up to 30, and the plates and spheres up to 60 vol.%. Thermal conductivity was measured and it was found that at filler amounts below 10 vol.% the ...

Effect of Particle Shape on Thermal Conductivity of Copper Reinforced Polymer Composites

In this article, researchers studied the effect of particle shape on the thermal conductivity of copper reinforced polymer composites. Short-fiber shaped polyamide composites with filler content ranging from 0 to 30 % were measured, alongside of polyamides containing 0 to 60 % filler, shaped as spheres and plates. When the filler content is low, particles are not interacting with each other, and therefore the thermal conductivity is low. As the filler percentage increases to 10%, an immediate ...
