Graphite nanoplatelet/silicone composites for thermal interface applications

Graphite nanoplatelets were dispersed in varying quantities into a silicone matrix to form composite materials with higher thermal conductivities than the pure silicone matrix without sacrificing mechanical properties. It was found that the thermal conductivities of the composites increased with increasing GNP content as well ...

Transport and mechanical properties of vapour grown carbon nanofibre/silicone composites

Silicone materials have high electrical and thermal insulation properties that are useful for engineering applications. In this study, vapour grown carbon nanofibers (VGCNF) were produced by two different methods and were added to silicone rubber to improve conductivity. A thermal constant analyser measured the thermal ...

Texture, transport and mechanical properties of graphite nanoplatelet/silicone composites produced by three roll mill

Using a three-roll mill process, graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs) were dispersed in a silicone polymer for application as a thermal interface material. Through the use of electron microscopy and XRD, the researchers were able to determine that the GNPs dispersed better when using the three-roll milling ...
