Enhanced Thermal Conductivity of Polymer Matrix Composite via High Solids Loading of Aluminum Nitride in Epoxy Resin

The need for higher thermal conductivity fillers, such as aluminum nitride, to deal with an increase in the heat output from future semiconductors has arisen, as most of them are now packaged in a silica epoxy polymer composite. Thermal conductivity testing was performed on the aluminum nitride composite using a thermal constants analyzer and the highest reading was 3.39 W/mK, approximately 15 times higher than pure epoxy. Based on the results, ...

Transient Plane Source Technique for Measuring Thermal Properties of Silicone Materials Used in Electronic Assemblies

This research paper delves into the thermal conductivity monitoring of silicone-based electronic materials with various fillers, using the Transient Plane Source (TPS) technique. Aside from the results, researchers also highlight the main features of the TPS technique: a rapid, precise and non-invasive method for measuring thermal properties of various materials. The results received using the TPS technique match those received using other techniques, however when using the TPS technique 30 tests ...

Thermal and Electrical Conductivity of Single- and Multi-walled Carbon nanotube-epoxy Composites 

Thermal conductivity measurements of the same samples were carried out using the TPS method. Thermal testing on carbon nanotubes to study for promising fillers.  Thermal conductivity of single-walled carbon nanotubes should enable a further reduction in the filler content required for a given enhancement in the composite properties. For the multi-walled carbon nanotube thermal conductivity increased modestly using this method whereas for the single-walled carbon nanotubes the thermal conductivity was ...
