Tech Brief: Commercially-available Thermally Enhanced Polymer Composite Materials Characteristics
Peter Rodgers, Editor Valérie Eveloy, The Petroleum Institute Introduction The development, characterization, and implementation of polymer composite materials for the thermal management of electronic equipment has recently began to attract attention [1,2]. The enhanced thermal conductivity, low density, low cost, ease of manufacture and corrosion resistance of polymer … [Read more...]
Thermal Conductor Research Project Joined by UH Physicist
(July 21, 2016) University of Houston’s MD Anderson Professor and physicist, Zhifeng Ren, has joined the $7.5 million collaboration to develop a material with a higher conductivity than diamonds. “Earlier research conducted in this field has anticipated the potential of boron arsenide to be a better thermal conductor than diamonds,” said Ren, “David Broido, a Boston College … [Read more...]
Combination of Two Insulators Could Enable More Efficient Heat Management
(July 28, 2016) Recently, “researchers at the University of Utah and the University of Minnesota have discovered that when two oxide compounds—strontium titanate (STO) and neodymium titanate (NTO)—are joined together, they make an extraordinary conductive material that could vastly improve power transistors,” according to Spectrum.IEEE.org. By themselves, each material … [Read more...]
Heat Sinks Improved with 3D Printing
(July 18, 2016) The complimenting research done by Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Tennessee Knoxville has found a way to improve the heat dissipation in electronics using 3D printing. According to 3DPrint.com, “[Oak Ridge] researchers are showing that 3D printed aluminum may be a more viable source for conducting heat than traditional materials. And at … [Read more...]
