Shuang-Shuang Wang, Dian-Ying Feng, Zhi-Ming Zhang, et al. Highly Thermally Conductive Polydimethylsiloxane Composites with Controllable 3D GO@
Hetero-structured GO@f-CNTs fillers prepared via chemical grafting method are constructed into controllable 3D GO@f-CNTs thermal conduction networks via self-sacrificing template method based on oxalic acid. When the size of oxalic acid is 0.24 mm and the volume fraction of GO@f-CNTs is 60 vol%
GO@f-CNTs/PDMS composites have optimal thermal conductivity (4.00 W/(m·K)).
Constructing controllable thermal conduction networks is the key to efficiently improve thermal conductivities of polymer composites. In this work
graphite oxide (GO) and functionalized carbon nanotubes (
f
-CNTs) are combined to prepare “Line-Plane”-like hetero-structured thermally conductive GO@
f
-CNTs fillers
which are then performed to construct controllable 3D GO@
f
-CNTs thermal conduction networks
via
self-sacrificing template method based on oxalic acid. Subsequently
thermally conductive GO@
f
-CNTs/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composites are fabricated
via
casting method. When the size of oxalic acid is 0.24 mm and the volume fraction of GO@
f
-CNTs is 60 vol%
GO@
f
-CNTs/PDMS composites present the optimal thermal conductivity coefficient (
λ
4.00 W·m
−1
·K
−1
)
about 20 times that of the
λ
of neat PDMS (0.20 W·m
−1
·K
−1
)
also much higher than the
λ
(2.44 W·m
−1
·K
−1
) of GO/
f
-CNTs/PDMS composites with the same amount of randomly dispersed fillers. Meanwhile
the obtained GO@
f
-CNTs/PDMS composites have excellent thermal stability
whose
λ
deviation is only about 3% after 500 thermal cycles (20−200 °C).
