Enhancement of thermal and mechanical properties of silicone rubber with γ-ray irradiation-induced polysilane-modified graphene oxide/carbon nanotube hybrid fillers

Abstract

In this work, functionalized silicon rubber with hybrid nanocarbon filler was prepared. The composites with good resistance ability to stress relaxation can be used as underfill to improve the thermo-mechanical reliability of flip-chips.

Effect of Nano Titanium Oxide with Different Surface Treatments on Color Stability of Red-Tinted Silicone Rubber

“…With the participation of air and water vapor, the pigments change into colorless or light-colored compounds, resulting in the macroscopic fading of the prosthesis [ 6 ]. After testing the color stability of five pigments in a silicone rubber, Cao et al and others concluded that the early color change of the prosthesis may be caused by the fading of pigments sensitive to ultraviolet light, while the color change after the long-term use may be caused by the color change in the silicone rubber [ 7 ]. Zhang et al and others tested the influence of three common exogenous colorants (tea, coffee, and red wine) on the dyeing of SY-1 silicone rubber.…”

Graphene in rubber formulations: a comprehensive review and performance optimization insights

“…It is interesting to mention that graphene can be modified by other kinds of methods such as gamma irradiation, 96–99 electrochemical methods, 44,100,101 and heat treatment. 61,102–104…”

“…Therefore, the crosslinking density, thermal conductivity, tensile strength, and elongation increase gradually when 0.1 wt% to 3 wt% of GO/CNTs-silica is present in silicone rubber. 96…”

“…Due to its high thermal conductivity (0.5 W mK −1 ), the CNTs/GO/silicone rubber fits the role as a durable thermal interface electronic packaging material which functions to raise the thermomechanical reliability of a flip-clip. 96 An advanced heat dissipation material is prepared by forming a 3D interconnected rGO@aluminum dioxide hybrid filler that acts as an efficient heat transfer route in the NR matrix. The thermal conductivity of the filler network (33.9 vol% of rGO@aluminum dioxide) with perpendicular orientation to the compressing direction boosts the thermal conductivity up to 3.233 W mK −1 .…”

“…Some other unconventional methods. It is interesting to mention that graphene can be modified by other kinds of methods such as gamma irradiation, [96][97][98][99] electrochemical methods, 44,100,101 and heat treatment. 61,[102][103][104] Regarding gamma irradiation, 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxy silane is polymerized on the surface of GO/CNTs by exposing the mixture of tetrahydrofuran/ 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxy suspension on GO/CNTs to gamma-rays that radiated from a 60 Co source in air.…”
