Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
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 ...
