  • Publication number: 20130237621
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a high heat radiation composite material including a hybrid filler comprising expanded graphite filled with expandable polymeric beads, and a fabrication method thereof. In the method, a dispersion solution is prepared by dispersing expandable polymeric beads in ethanol. Expanded graphite is immersed in the dispersion solution, and heat-treated to remove ethanol, thereby producing the hybrid filler. The hybrid filler is dispersed into the matrix polymer via an extrusion/injection process, thereby producing the composite material.

  • Publication number: 20130221285
    Abstract: Disclosed is a hybrid polymer composite for electromagnetic wave shielding, and a method for fabricating the same. Specifically, the hybrid polymer composite may be fabricated by combining a microcapsule that is surface coated with at least one carbon nanotube and includes a phase change material (PCM), whose phase easily transitions from solid to liquid upon exposure to heat, with at least one carbon fiber and a matrix polymer. The disclosed hybrid polymer composite has enhanced electromagnetic wave shielding properties that result, in part, from the ability of the PCM to dissipate and remove heat generated by electromagnetic absorption. Additionally, the disclosed composite has excellent conductivity due to its polymer properties and the formation of a network between fillers and the polymer.

  • Publication number: 20080069429
    Abstract: A method of registering a reference image includes obtaining information of layers in a design pattern that is used for forming an actual pattern on a substrate and comparing the information to obtain a difference therebetween. The method further includes obtaining a reference image for testing the actual pattern based on the difference. Thus, the reference image, which is obtained from the design pattern, but not from the actual pattern, may include information on all of the actual patterns on the substrate.
