Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were used as filler to enhance thermal conductivity of Ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) polymers. In order to study the thermal conductivity of the MWNTs/EPDM composites in three different directions, an experiment was conducted by the heat probe method. The results show the general average thermal conductivity of MWNTs/EPDM composites is 0.323 W/m•K，which is significantly higher than EPDM polymers. The maximum difference of thermal conductivity between two directions is 8.7% relative to the general average, indicating obvious anisotropic behavior.
