Thermal interface materials (TIMs) are very crucial for better heat-transfer in electronics working as an interfacial connection between heat generators and heat sinks. This study is focused on the pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive tape reinforced with micron-sized and nano-sized aluminum nitride (AlN) particles where the surface modification of AlN particles is done using (3-Aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (3-APTES). The physicochemical analysis of the silanized AlN particles is done using FTIR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Furthermore, thermal properties along with thermal conductivity and thermal diffusion are also studied. The main outcome of this study shows that the sample containing surface-treated AlN particles exhibits better thermal conductivity than that of the samples containing µ and nano-sized of AlN due to the comparatively better interactions with the matrix.

AbstractTo apply the superconducting wire to power machines, it is necessary to conduct research on the characteristics of wire phase changes in connection with insulating layers. In this study, according to the presence or absence of insulating layers in the wire, and to the thickness of such layers, the wire's resistance increase trends and the characteristics of its recovery from quenching were examined by current-applied cycle at the temperatures of 90 K, 180 K and 250 K. Towards this end, YBCO thin-film wires that have the same critical temperatures and that have copper and stainless-steel stabilizing layers were prepared. One level and three and five levels of superior-performance polyimide pressure-sensitive adhesive tape was attached to the wires at a very low temperature. The eight prepared test samples were wound around the linear frames, then the wire's voltage and current created owing to the phase change characteristics were measured at each prescribed temperature, using the four-point probe method. Further, near the examination temperatures of 90 K, 180 K and 250 K the wire's resistance and recovery characteristics were examined by cycle.

The interaction between the cohesive zone and the elastic stiffness heterogeneity in the peeling of an adhesive tape from a rigid substrate is examined experimentally and with finite element simulations. It is established in the literature that elastic stiffness heterogeneities can greatly enhance the force required to peel a tape without changing the properties of the interface. However, much of these concern brittle materials where the cohesive zone is limited in size. This paper reports the results of peeling experiments performed on pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes with both an elastic stiffness heterogeneity and a substantial cohesive zone. These experiments show muted enhancement in the peeling force and suggest that the cohesive zone acts to smooth out the effect of the discontinuity at the edge of the elastic stiffness heterogeneities, suppressing their effect on peel force enhancement. This mechanism is examined through numerical simulation which confirms that the peel force enhancement depends on the strength of the adhesive and the size of the cohesive zone.

This study experimentally examined the thermal properties of reactive materials that are a composite of fuel and oxidizer particles. Three reactive materials were selected: aluminum (Al) with iron (III) oxide (Fe2O3); Al with Teflon (C2F4); and Al with titanium (IV) oxide (TiO2). The experimental measurements were performed using a laser flash analyzer (LFA) and then compared with calculations based on weighted averages of each component in the composite. The effects of fuel particle size, oxidizer, and initial temperature on thermal properties were studied. Nanometric Al composites are more insulative than their micron-scale counterparts, exhibiting three times lower thermal conductivity in some cases. Increased overall contact resistance may be a key contributor to the reduction in thermal conductivity. The measured values deviated as high as 69% from weighted average estimates of thermal properties. These results suggest that factors not accounted for in weighted average estimates significantly influence the thermal properties of the matrix.
