Abstract: A method for the treatment of micro pores within a mica paper that includes: obtaining a silane with a molecular weight of between approximately 15 and 300, adding the silane to the mica paper, and reacting the silane with the inner surface of the micro pores within the mica paper. After this, a resin is impregnated into the mica paper, and the resin binds to the inner surfaces of the micro pores with the mica paper through the silane. In one embodiment, the mica paper is compressed by an amount between 5% and 30% of its original thickness. In another embodiment, the mica paper is compressed both prior to reacting the silane and during impregnation with the resin.

Abstract: A high thermal conductivity resin that is made up of a host resin matrix (42) and high thermal conductivity fillers (30) that are mixed within the host resin to form a resin mixture. The fillers comprise at least 3-5% by weight of the resin mixture, and the fillers are from an average of 1-100 nm in at least one dimension, and where the particles are smaller than an average of 1000 nm in the particles' longest dimension. The host resin matrix forms an ordered resin shell (40) around the high thermal conductivity fillers (30), whereby resin molecules are aligned perpendicular to the surface of the high thermal conductivity fillers. An overlap of the ordered resin shells (44) is formed between the high thermal conductivity fillers such that continuous pathways for ordered resin shells are created through the resin mixture.
