Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
This study primarily focuses on the electrical and thermal conductivity of nanoparticle filled epoxy resins. Modification of polymers on a nanstructure level has revealed a new world of possibilities for multi-functional materials. Research has found that carbon nanotubes may have the potential to improve mechanical performance of conductive polymers. This research studies the thermal performance of the resins with respect to various types of carbon nanotubes, various concentrations of filler ...
During a melt blending process, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were added to a poly(vinylidene fluoride)/Boron nitride (PVDF/BN) composite, to increase the thermal conductivity of this polymer composite, for uses in the electronic industry. After this process, the thermal and electrical conductivities, along with any microstructure changes were investigated. It was determined that with the addition of CNTs, the thermal conductivity rating of the composite increased, as well as ...
