Promoting the thermal transport via understanding the intrinsic relation between thermal conductivity and interfacial contact probability in the polymeric composites with hybrid fillers

Enhanced thermal conductivity of polyarylene ether nitrile composites blending hexagonal boron nitride

“…In addition to fillers mentioned above, hybrid fillers mixed by fillers in different dimensions, some functionalization fillers and other fillers also play important roles in high thermal conductivity fillers. 8 Another critical core to improve heat conductivity is the dispersion of the fillers. The distribution or arrangement of fillers in the polymer matrix and the contact between fillers will immensely affect the thermal conduction.…”

“…Benefiting from its advantages, h‐BN has been widely applied in electronics. In addition to fillers mentioned above, hybrid fillers mixed by fillers in different dimensions, some functionalization fillers and other fillers also play important roles in high thermal conductivity fillers 8 . Another critical core to improve heat conductivity is the dispersion of the fillers.…”

Multifunctional Thermally Conductive Composite Films Based on Fungal Tree‐like Heterostructured Silver Nanowires@Boron Nitride Nanosheets and Aramid Nanofibers

“…[30][31][32] Additionally, hetero-structured thermally conductive fillers can create more effective thermal conduction pathways in the polymer matrix via overlapping each other. [33][34][35][36] The λ of polymer matrix thermally conductive composites filled with hetero-structured thermally conductive fillers are typically higher than those of composites prepared with the same amount of single or mixed kinds of thermally conductive fillers, because there is less chance of introducing more interfacial thermal resistance or agglomeration of thermally conductive fillers. [37][38][39] At present, the methods for preparing hetero-structured thermally conductive fillers mainly include electrostatic selfassembly, in situ growth, chemical grafting, etc.. [40][41][42] Vu et al [43] prepared hetero-structured fBN@oCNT thermally conductive fillers from silane-functionalized BN (fBN) and oxidized carbon nanotube (oCNT) by electrostatic selfassembly and prepared fBN@oCNT/epoxy thermally conductive composites.…”

Soft Composite Gels with High Toughness and Low Thermal Resistance through Lengthening Polymer Strands and Controlling Filler

“…[10,11] The addition of nanoparticles is usually used to tough gels, but excessive interfacial phonon scattering between nanoparticle and polymer matrix results in low thermal resistance. [12,13] Other strategy involve in aligning thermally conductive fillers in soft gels by freeze-drying selfassembly. [14,15] This method can achieve low thermal resistance at the small filler loading, thus maintaining the gel inherent properties, such as high stretchability and low modulus.…”
