Thermal conductivity of a polyethylene filled with disoriented short‐cut carbon fibers

Abstract: SYNOPSISThermal conductivity of polyethylene composites, filled with randolr.ly dispersed and disoriented (oriented at random) carbon fibers with various aspect ratios, were investigated. Orientation of fibers was quantitatively evaluated by Hermans' parameter. In specimens of isotropic composites, i.e., filled with randomly dispersed and disoriented fibers, thermal conductivity increased with an increase in the fiber length. The resub; is discussed in comparison with electric conductivity of the composites an… Show more

“…These materials, owing to the randomization of the anisotropic properties of their second phases, have relatively poor properties. In fact, the main problem posed by the various carbon reinforcements evaluated in the last twenty years (graphite particles, short carbon fibres or carbon nanotubes) seems to be the difficulty in getting massive orientation to take benefit of the exceptional planar (two-dimensional) properties of graphite [6][7][8][9].…”

“…[15] thermal resistance -based bounds for the effective conductivity of composites were determined. Also, Agari and Uno [16,17] proposed a practical and useful formula to calculate thermal conductivity of particulate composites whilst Khan and Muliana [18] proposed a microstructural model to evaluate thermal conductivity and thermal expansion coefficient for particulate composites, taking into account the particle interaction,. Also, in Ref.…”
