  • Patent number: 11105567
    Abstract: A thermal management assembly comprising a bulk graphene material and a metal-based coating layer disposed on opposing surfaces of the bulk graphene core material comprising an agent that is reactive with the graphene to form a carbide. The metal-based coating layer can serve as an outer layer of the assembly or can serve to bond the graphene to other materials encapsulating the graphene core. The metal-based coating layer with the reactive agent provides an assembly exhibiting excellent thermal conductivity properties and greatly improved thermal interface resistance.
    Type: Grant
