Vertically Aligned and Interconnected Graphene Networks for High Thermal Conductivity of Epoxy Composites with Ultralow Loading
Abstract
Efficient removal of heat via thermal interface materials has become one of the most critical challenges in the development of modern microelectronic devices. However, traditional polymer composites present limited thermal conductivity even when highly loaded with highly thermally conductive fillers due to the lack of efficient heat transfer channels. In this work, vertically aligned and interconnected graphene networks are first used as the filler, which is prepared by a controlled three-step procedure: formation of graphene oxide liquid crystals, oriented freeze casting, and high-temperature annealing reduction under Ar. The obtained composite, at an ultralow graphene loading of 0.92 vol %, exhibits a high thermal conductivity (2.13 W m –1 K –1 ) that is equivalent to a dramatic enhancement of 1231% compared to the pure matrix. Furthermore, the composite also presents a much reduced coefficient of thermal expansion (∼37.4 ppm K –1 ) and increased glass transition temperature (135.4 °C). This strategy provides an insight for the design of high-performance composites with potential to be used in advanced electronic packaging.

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.
