In order to improve the thermal conductivity of silicone, we prepared silicone/carbon nanotube array (CNTA) composite by immersing the CNTA into silicone solution and cured at 110 °C. The thermal conductivity of silicone and silicone/CNTA composite was measured by laser flash method at 30 °C, 60 °C, 90 °C, 120 °C, which are usually the operating temperatures. It was found that the thermal conductivity of silicone/CNTA composite increased with the temperature until achieved the plateau near 90 °C. The maximum thermal conductivity of silicone/CNTA composite is 0.674 W/mK, which is 220% higher than that of neat silicone. The excellent thermal conductivity makes the composite a promising thermal interface material.

The laser flash method is a standard method for thermal diffusivity measurement. This paper reports the development of a method and theory that extends the standard laser flash method to measure thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity simultaneously. By attaching a transparent reference layer with known thermal properties on the back of a sample, the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of the sample can be extracted from the temperature response of the interface between the sample and the reference layer to a heating pulse on the front surface. The theory can be applied for sample and reference layer with different thermal properties and thickness, and the original analysis of the laser flash method becomes a limiting case of the current theory with an infinitely small thickness of the reference layer. The uncertainty analysis was performed and results indicated that the laser flash method can be used to extract the thermal conductivity and diffusivity of the sample. The results can be applied to, for instance, opaque liquid in a quartz dish with silicon infrared detector measuring the temperature of liquid-quartz interface through the quartz.
