Thermal properties of acrylate-based composite combined with alumina-based particles were investigated. The composites were made of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) modified with dimethyl itaconate (DMI) as a matrix. Neat alumina particles (Al2O3) and alumina doped with iron oxide (Al2O3-Fe) modified with 3-aminopropyl-trimethoxylane (AM) and flax oil fatty acid methyl esters (biodiesel - BD) were used as reinforcement. Thermal conductivity measurements showed that composite with alumina particles with the highest alpha phase content had the highest thermal conductivity values. Mechanical properties (tensile strength, modulus of elasticity and elongation at break) were improved by the addition of modified alumina particles to PMMA/DMI matrix. The thermal properties are the most improved for composite with 3 wt.% Al2O3-Fe-AM particles that had the lowest temperature in a crack zone was noticed (10.28 %) compared to PMMA added due to the better stiffness and highest thermal conductivity.

Thermal Vision

The aim of this work was to investigate thermal properties of acrylate-based composite combined with alumina-based particles. The composites were made of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) modified with dimethyl itaconate (DMI) as a matrix. As reinforcement were used alumina particles (Al2O3) and alumina doped with iron oxide (Al2O3-Fe) modified with 3-aminopropyl-trimethoxylane (AM) and flax oil fatty acid methyl esters (biodiesel - BD). According to the thermal conductivity measurements, the highest thermal conductivity values had the composite with alumina particles with the highest alpha phase content. With the addition of modified alumina particles to PMMA/DMI matrix mechanical properties were improved (tensile strength, modulus of elasticity and elongation at break). Composite with 3 wt. % Al2O3-Fe-AM particles had the most improved mechanical properties. It was noticed that this composite, compared to PMMA, had the lowest temperature in a crack zone (10.28%) and that is due to the better stiffness and highest thermal conductivity. The results indicated that the Sobel fractured surface area is related to the crack energy, which is reflected by the temperature of sample monitored by thermal vision.

The Impact

LED chip-on-board applications typically involve assembling an LED die stack directly on to a high thermal conductivity substrate such as a Metal Core PCB. If solder is used for die-substrate attach for such chip-on-board applications, one needs to consider the CTE mismatch between the die stack and the MCPCB and its impact on thermal cycle-induced creep fatigue of the solder material. This paper presents a methodology to compare relative performance of different solder materials with varying thermo-mechanical properties, and compare the impact of CTE mismatch and temperature swings on transient thermal properties and relative reliability of the solder attach materials. Implications for LED chip-on-board applications are discussed.

Elongation At Break

Chopped jute fiber-epoxy composites with varying fiber length (2-12 mm) and mass fraction (0.05-0.35) had been prepared by a heat press unit. The cross-linked product was characterized in terms of specific gravity, thermal conductivity, tensile strength, Young modulus and elongation at break. The transverse thermal conductivities for randomly oriented fibers in the composite were investigated by Lees and Charlton’s method. The tensile strength, Young modulus and elongation at break were investigated by a Universal Tensile Tester. With an increase in the fiber content (irrespective of the fiber length), the thermal conductivity of the composite decreases; the decreasing rate being highest for the fiber length of 2 mm followed by that for the fiber length of 6 and 12 mm. The decreasing rate of the thermal conductivity of the jute-epoxy composite is comparatively higher to that reported in literature for acrylic polymer hemp fiber composite. The tensile strength also decreases with the increase of the fiber content in the composite. The fiber length does not show to have significant effect on the tensile strength of the composite; the variation in strength being masked within experimental error. The Young modulus increases with the increase of fiber content within elastic limit; showing the highest values for the fiber length of 6 mm followed by those for the fiber length of 2 mm and 12 mm. The elongation at break shows slightly increasing trend up to 15% fiber content, but beyond that it decreases drastically. The specific gravity decreases with the increase in the fiber content and thus the recalculated specific tensile strength is found to keep at a stable level of 36MPa up to the fiber content of 20%, and beyond that the specific tensile strength decreases with the increase in the fiber content. It is concluded that jute fiber-epoxy composite could be used as a good heat-insulating material. Further investigation is recommended on the improvement of the thermal insulation keeping the mechanical properties unchanged or even improved. The TGA study is also required to ascertain the field of application of the material.

The effect of extrusion treatment on the mechanical, thermal and corrosion resistance of Mg–La–Zn–Zr alloys were presented. It is suggested that the amount of recrystallized grains played a major role in both mechanical properties and thermal properties. It should be noted the as-cast alloy shows the best thermal conductivity reached the value about 137.507 W/(m · K), however, the mechanical performance of magnesium alloys does not reach the expected results. The thermal properties of extruded alloys have slightly decreased and then increased with the increase of extrusion temperature. Then the tensile properties of Mg–La–Zn–Zr were significantly improved after extrusion treatment. Furthermore, with the increase of extrusion temperature, the elongation-to-fracture increased substantially. After extrusion treatment, the corrosion driving force of the alloy decreases, which reduces the corrosion tendency of the magnesium alloy. The alloy presented in this paper is expected to be applied in industry.

Blending Method

Graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) and nylon (PA) have been often used as thermal filler and matrix and respectively to produce composites. In this work, PA6/PA66/GNP thermal composites were prepared via a melt blending method. Mechanical properties, morphology, and thermal properties of PA6/PA66/GNP composites were investigated. Because the GNP is very expensive, we investigated to use Al2O3 and graphite and examined the characteristics of the prepared composites. Thermal conductivity values of PA6/PA66/GNP composites remarkably increased with increase of GNP contents mainly via layered dispersion in nylon matrix. The thermal conductivity of composite containing 50 wt % of GNP was measured as 5.03 W·m–1·K–1 at 30 °C, indicating an increase of more than 15 times compared with that of the neat PA6. When the Al2O3 was replaced for GNP, the thermal conductivity of composites decreased, but the mechanical properties improved. When graphite was used to replace for GNP, thermal conductivity basically remained unchanged but mechanical properties decreased.

Rupture Characteristic

Recycled polypropylene (PP)/carbon nanotube (CNTs) composites with different CNTs fraction were prepared by the melting blend method. The effects of CNTs content on the thermal properties and mechanical properties were mainly investigated. The results show that the thermal degradation of the composites shifts towards higher temperatures as the concentration of CNTs is increased. With increasing CNTs content, tensile strength and elongation at break increase firstly and then decrease. When CNTs content is 3 %, tensile strength and elongation at break are 34.71 and 27.00, respectively. Moreover, a unique tensile rupture characteristic was found by SEM observations, which explained the critical broken theory of the PP/CNTs composites.

This paper presents the effects of incorporating carbon nanotubes (CNT) into nylon 6 on thermal properties and fire performance of woven glass reinforced CNT/nylon 6 nanocomposite laminates. Incorporation of CNT in nylon 6 improved the thermal stabilities, thermal conductivity and fire performance of laminates without compromising their mechanical properties. The thermal conductivity of laminates with 2 wt% CNT increased up to 42% compared to that without CNT. The ignition time and peak HRR time was delayed approx. 31% and 118%, respectively, in laminates with 4 wt% CNT in nylon 6 over that without CNT.

Thermal barrier coating systems (TBCs) prepared by an air-plasma spray (APS) have been used to protect metallic components of gas turbines because of its economic advantage. To enhance the energy efficiency of gas turbine systems, the operating temperature is increased to over 1300 °C, which requires a new material with low thermal conductivity and an increase of TBC thickness. In this study we have focused the microstructure related to the thickness of TBC and their thermal properties, with specific attention to defect species as well as to its morphology with the thermal exposure time. Resintering of TBC happens during thermal exposure in a high temperature, resulting in the less strain tolerance and the higher thermal conductivity. In order to investigate the thermal properties of TBC related to the microstructural evolution, TBCs with different thicknesses of 200 µm, 400 µm, 600 µm, and 2000 µm were deposited on a flat graphite by the APS. The thermal exposure tests were conducted in different dwell time till 800h at 1100 °C. The thermal diffusivity is significantly increased after thermal exposures, depending on the thermal exposure time. Microstructural analysis clearly shows that the variation of thermal diffusivity is ascribed to the coalescence of small cracks and the resintering effect. The hardness values of TBCs are also increased as well. The relationship between mechanical properties and TBC thickness is discussed, including the effect of thickness on thermal properties.

Moulding Sand

Moulding properties of foundry sand should be controlled so as to minimize casting defects. Its thermal characteristics are vital in defining the solidification kinetics of a cast part,  evolving microstructure and mechanical properties. Modification of the thermal properties of the moulding sand mix is important in achieving desired structure and mechanical properties in the cast component. This study investigates the incorporation of 2-12 wt. % aluminium dross (AlDr) and 1-6 wt. % rice husk ash (RHA) in silica sand on moulding and thermal properties of the resulting sand mix. Results show that RHA significantly reduced thermal conductivity of the moulding sand from 1.631-1.141 W/m. K (a 30% reduction).However, AlDr increased its thermal conductivity from 1.631-1.787 W/m.K for 1-6 wt. % AlDr, which later dropped progressively from 1.753-1.540 W/m.K for 8-12 wt. %. The moisture content increased abruptly from 4.0-4.2 % for 6-8 wt. % AlDr addition but decreased from 4.0-2.8% for0-6 wt. % RHA addition in the moulding sand mix. http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/njt.v36i3.19
