Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s Physical Measurement Laboratory have succeeded in measuring the thermal conductivity for the first time of an ultra-thin material that is expected to play a major role in the developing field of nanoelectronics. Molybdenum disulfide, also known as molybdenite or “moly” for short, is a 2D material that measures … [Read more...]
New Thermoelectric Material May Boost Development of Green Technologies
New material properties discovered by researchers at the University of Miami may impact ongoing research into thermoelectric materials, which are useful in power generation, energy detection and refrigeration and cooling. Lead author Joshua Cohn, professor and chairman of the UM Department of Physics, and his colleagues report new properties of a metal known as lithium … [Read more...]
Thermally Conductive Epoxy for Aerospace, Electronics and OEM Industries
Master Bond has introduced EP46HT-1AO, a two-component, thermally conductive epoxy formulated for bonding and sealing applications in the aerospace, electronic and specialty OEM industries. EP46HT-1AO combines thermal conductivity and electrical insulation properties. This dimensionally stable system provides a tensile strength over 7,500 psi, a compressive strength of 26,000 … [Read more...]
Filter Fans Provide Effective Cooling for Electrical and Electronic Enclosures
EIC Solutions, Inc., a manufacturer of thermoelectric air conditioners, electronic enclosures and transit cases, has introduced a new line of filter fans designed to remove unwanted heat from electrical/electronic enclosures and cabinets. The VFF series filter fans cool enclosures to a level slightly above the ambient temperature outside the cabinet by drawing filtered ambient … [Read more...]
New Plastic Helps Prevent Phones from Overheating
A new plastic material could significantly reduce problems associated with overheating mobile phones, say researchers from Loughborough University in England. Known as ultra-high molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), the new plastic, unlike the ones currently used in mobile phone covers, dissipates the heat created by the lithium batteries and reduces the likelihood of … [Read more...]
