Thermal Conductivity of Polymers and Their Nanocomposites

Open access
Xu, Xiangfan, Chen, Jie, Zhou, Jun, Li, Baowen·2018·Advanced Materials

Abstract

Polymers are usually considered as thermal insulators, and their applications are limited by their low thermal conductivity. However, recent studies have shown that certain polymers have surprisingly high thermal conductivity, some of which are comparable to that in poor metals or even silicon. Here, the experimental achievements and theoretical progress of thermal transport in polymers and their nanocomposites are outlined. The open questions and challenges of existing theories are discussed. Special attention is given to the mechanism of thermal transport, the enhancement of thermal conductivity in polymer nanocomposites/fibers, and their potential application as thermal interface materials.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
