Innovative High Thermal Conductivity Epoxies Utilizing Nanotube Composites

This research explores advanced high thermal conductivity epoxies, focusing on a novel epoxy concept developed by Jeff Wiseman in December 2009. Despite extensive searches, existing commercial uses for this product were not found, necessitating the creation of a new epoxy formulation using nanotubes. The study highlights how thermal conductivity increases with the volume percentage of composite materials and examines 1D and 2D architectures in fiber alignment. Key findings indicate that optimized fiber arrangement significantly enhances thermal performance.

  1. High Thermal Conductivity Epoxies Jeff Wiseman 12/15/09

  2. Research on commercial epoxies New (Epoxy) Idea

  3. Notes • Commercial Epoxies • Electrical Conductivity calculated from a given value for electrical resistivity • First epoxy, with (FNAL), was in a list of epoxies researched by C.M. Lei at FNAL in 2000 • All are available for purchase from the manufacturers listed • New Epoxy Idea • After much searching, cannot find any commercial use of this product, must create it ourselves • Because the epoxy uses nanotubes, this thermal conductivity is either in 1 or 2 directions only, the 2 being in a plane. • As the volume % of the composite material increases, the thermal conductivity increases as well

  5. Thermal Conductivity of Composite Material cont. 1D

  6. Chen and Ting, Carbon.40(02)359 Thermal Conductivity of Composite Material cont. • Architecture • 1D architecture is when all fibers are aligned in the same direction • 2D architecture is when fibers are aligned in two directions, such as X and Y, that are in-plane perpendicular to each other
